ghey.

dvbbs is just more edmbs

There. Except.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm proud to say I don't know who DVBBS is.

Me neither, and apparently they're from where I am. DJing is so easy nowadays with auto sync and wave forms all right in front of you. Why even fake it?

Ok so im not the only one

Me neither too! :-)

(nm)

now we all know who DVBBS is though..

I only just discovered them after researching a couple of music groups I am opening/providing sound and lighting for. The groups are featured on the "Twilight" movie soundtracks and apparently DVBSS produced a remix of one of their singles. Decent production but when they go to such great lengths to pretend to search for tracks, that is laughable. They were even faking their "Serato Face" LOL

Maybe they had a premix because only scratchlive was available at the venue and there's no automix on it.

And you can count me in as another person that didn't know who they were until now.

I still dont

i thought you played all that edm biz bezz? its no 1 on beatport.

Whats beatport? Lol jokin, but i never really look at the beatport charts, i run in the underground circles so i try to avoid song that are doin well lol

The are the guys being referenced in this thread.

I'm mad at "except".....

I thought you were mad at lotion?

Wrong again, but I'm still mad at your mother for not swallowing....

>:-[

You haven't really 'made it' till you're being discussed on the SSL forums.

I also have never heard of them until now.

Oh wow. Just checked them on Beatport. Just reinforced why I don't go there for tracks if that is #1.

I just did the same. Wish I hadn't.

You know there's something wrong when music produces anxiety, anger and boredom all at the same time.

A lil bit old but this mash up of the top beatport tracks is friggin hilarious. EDM is dead. Lolz

*** SO IT IS OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED!


*** THEY DON'T WRITE OR PRODUCE THEIR OWN MUSIC EITHER.


How did they get their names on a number 1 Beatport track?...
What the heck is going on??? I don't understand what they are???

something is spooky here.

shakes head... loses hope...

edm bro.

I've heard quite a few people state that Beatport is as corrupt as anything else in the music industry...and that's pretty corrupt LOL.

I have no idea why, on their own merits (even if they were actually producing their own stuff) they would be "popular". Totally boring, ordinary, formula "EDM".

Then again, a lot of people didn't get how the one Vanilla Ice song blew up in 1990...boring and as much of a lame hack-job as that was...

I'd never heard of these clowns before this thread, maybe this is all a self-flagellation-style publicity stunt.

haha, saw this like a week ago and didnt know what he was talking about, now i understand...straight wackness

OUCH.... rotfl but OUCH......

I can only hope and pray that it does. Clubbers want that rap crap back. Here in Milwaukee (small city, insignificant but whatever), clubs are starting to go back to the hip hop format and phasing out that 128bpm noise. 2 weeks ago, some dj dropped Nicky Romero and some other beatport type crap and literally got booed of the decks. Girls gave the stank face and dudes were like we dont want no damn techno.

Ravers, go back to your abandon warehouses and take your drugs and garbage with ya.

Go back...we never left :)

hiphop djs don't fake sets doe.

Wow the DJ Milli Vanilli.... If your not old enough you won't get that.

Blaim it on the rain :)

Aren't there a bunch of EDM guys who do this?

Who cares at this point.

Button pushing is one step above faking anyways.

That's the thing though, it's so easy already what's the point in faking? It takes just as much effort pretending to DJ then to just play out their set normally. Not like they do anything special anyway.

even vegas club programmers are saying rap is back.

quote fail

its in no better state than any other genre

Is EDM really dead? I think its just the cycle, some weeks I cannot play any of the crap some weeks thats all people want. D.C is weird like that and the clubs are totally segregated so that makes it even weirder

its not dead, but i was looking one of the more fairly large vegas casino/club music directors twitter and he was saying how rap was coming back. it was interesting because ive been following him for about a 2 years and he kept pushing edm.

its like anything thats pushed that hard, theres gonna be a backlash. even hip hop went back underground(sound wise) in the 90s after hammer and vanilla ice came out.

the younger, more bro types are listening to more bass type house(garage, bass house- whatever you wanna call that style with bass drops as the bassline ie DISCOLOSURE, dirtybird/breach/bondax) type stuff) and even deep house where im at. They still dig rap and trap, but i think the formulaic crap that edm has become with the big names(like this dubbs track) is on its way to the hs and middle school age groups.

I think edm is still prevalent in most big clubs, but it was bound to wear out pretty soon with the saturation level it got too with these festivals(although they are still selling out with the same tiesto, alesso, kaskade, lineups) . If you follow music trends, its like the trance scene of the late 90s early 2000s. or the hair metal bands of the 80s or the disco scene of the late 70s.

It all comes full-circle. Just give it time.

I've heard reports from several promoters around the country who can confirm that they just fake it every set.

I should fake a set and have JJ call me out. I'd get mad publicity and could probably start doing gigs again. hmmm

if you get the no 1 record on beatport. not sure how many local djs jj calls out.

He called out that one noname bar dj on his day off lol

That could be me!

Opps correction that was spinbad

serato.com

Caught faking a set and having their first main hit ghost produced, wow...

Did you get a shovel for Christmas Patrick?
