Heart of Darkness: The Secret Dj on Touring

[Michael^Heaven]

“I can’t stay here! The wallpaper is too weird”. Someone really said this. In my time in dance music, whether behind the decks or putting on parties, I’ve heard a lot of DJ bad behaviour stories. In fact, I kind of collect them.

With my own long-abused ears I have heard “these ice cubes are too cloudy”, “the thermostat is too complicated”, “there’s not enough magazines in English” (in Malaysia) and someone needing an entirely new luxury room because “the pot-pourri smells funny.”

“The toilet is in a stupid place” is another and one of my faves, as is the nameless superstar who insists on a heated floor wherever they go, and yet somehow refuses to consider shoes.

Then one day it’s a job again, and people need you to do things that frankly aren’t nearly as awesome as making little food sculptures out of room service leftovers, and they’re all so boooooring, and suddenly you’ve forgotten what it is that you do. You are supposed to make other people happy. Not yourself.

That's what happens when success comes too quickly, the immature individual doesn't realize how fortunate they are and their ego isn't in the right place.
