    A Great Idea

    I read this article from DJ Mag while waiting for the top 100 DJ poll results.



    I think it's a great idea and will definitely get more people interested in the genre. Thoughts?

      Come on. Don't embarrass yourself. Did you even read the article? It's labels like Hope Recordings...

        actually no i didnt read it. i am lazy after long day at work.
        but i'm a long time fan of Hope recordings. i was playing their records back in ' 97.
        glad to see them get some big time recognition actually.

          Yeah... My apologies for the bluntness of the previous comment. It does look really promising though.

            BT, Dirty Vegas and others have already done lots of ads.
            the CSI Vegas producer uses Sasha, Radiohead, etc...
            don't know what impact it would really have.. it would be interesting to see.
            but honestly in some form or another you hear A LOT of EDM type music in adverts and background music for tv shows and what not.

              I think its a great idea...

              until they start overplaying commercials and making people sick of an artists songs.
              ...kinda like the radio....

              hopefully artists and their labels will have enuf common sense not to whore out their 'good stuff'.

                It sounds like a good opportunity for some of these lables to make extra cash. But by doing this I think it is going to commercialize dance music and ruin a lot of the mistic that surrounds it. Common do really want to hear say expander on a comemrical like twenty times a day. Just look at how radio keeps playing the same songs over and over again. I really hope dance music never becomes like that.
                Common Sense is not Common at all.

                        if one good track ruined by overplay in an advert/film can fund a lesser known artist to record music for 2 years , and stop it just being a hobby for him then why is it not a good idea ? not all producers of tracks have all the equipment or enough time outside work to commit themselves to creating music properly . if selling one big track gets us 5 more quality tracks then it can only be good

                            to me. it's all about keeping it real. if tracks gets played in clubs for a few months and are sold for adverts, cool beans. but make a track for an advert and have it played in clubs. lame.

                            i am all about the public being second. and fans being first.

                              at the moment due to internet and radio shows we here tracks all the time that we can't buy for months . and that takes the edge of buying them . loads of stuff spoils music these days but because it's friday i want to look for the positive in everything
