Do you think Digweed is bored?

March 16, 2006, 09:15:56 PM

not dissing the guy, but...

at what point do you just get bored of DJing? at what point is it 'just a job'?
does Diggers' still wake up and think 'god i can't WAIT to put on a pair of headphones tonight'?
how much music can you really listen to without it all being a big blur?

just thinking out loud...

Re: Do you think Digweed is bored?

hmmm.....my thought is that if he were bored, he would just stop doing it. If you are a dj you aren't really in this for the money and fame....you are in it for the love of the music and making people happy.

I don't know if he's bored, but I haven't loved one of his sets in years. I still think that only the mighty Sasha can mix better at times. You won't see me missing his gigs anytime soon though.

no way digweed is bored, he seems very stoked to do his transitions show, and is always commenting on the top quality of dance music out these days.

Re: Do you think Digweed is bored?

I don't think there's even the slightest chance of him currently being bored.

He started to push a more *ducks* "electro" sound a few years ago, and you can really here the perseverence has paid off in recent sets. The quality of tracks which fits that certain feel has improved immensely since he's started playing it, and so has his ability to play that soft of stuff.

When I heard him towards the end of last year it was a very different set to the one I heard him play the same time the year before. Which one blew me away more? Very hard to say, both were the most amazing nights I've had out, and I've been doing this for way too many years now....

But one thing's for sure - seeing home nightclub, which handles a capacity of around 3,000 still packed to the rafters at 7:30am after he's been on the decks for somewhere around 6 hours truly is a sight to witness. NO ONE was prepared to leave and no one did. The club was still at totally full capacity. Can't say I've seen any other DJ even come close to keeping that sort of crowd in the doors.

Now I know he's still doing this in every city gig in, gig out... You can't make that sort of thing happen if you no longer have the passion. No one can no matter how good you are in your chosen field.

He can always go the Oakenfold route if he gets bored, which he hasn't.

I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

he wouldn't be hosting a show if he was bored IMO.
