My brother's went and saw the Blue Man Group in Grand Rapids. The opening act was a VJ named Mike Relm. They were going on about how incredible this guy was. I'm thoroughly impressed. You be the judge...
YouTube - DJ MIKE RELM LIVE IN SAN FRAN
 
I hope it was better with audio. I just played it on this machine without speakers and only saw some dude slapping another dude for 2 minutes.

I agree the slap was a little overdone, i got the point after the first 10 seconds the remaining 2 minutes was just overkill. I didn't think he was too great he basically just scratched a lot. I"ve seen much more creative VJ's. Take someone like DJ Yoda. Who actually uses video as creatively as any good DJ does audio.
 
Ok, Yeah it's cool for a min. I'm not a big fan of scratching, I think it's kinda dumb. I would be more impressed with crazy cross beatmixed generes that change the meaning of the video. One would be very cool to throw crazy movie stuff and clips over music and make live video mashups.
 
and yes it was the same

Scratch effect being done at various speeds according to the speed of the slapping. Sort of odd and Cam your thought was dead on creativity might make it more interesting. Tell some sort of story with mixed dvd footage. I would like to see Yodas stuff Tbone hook us up. Sorry Jay its must have been better live. Dude actually mentioned it to me the other day.Theres got to be something to it.:sqcool:

Makes you just want to jump up and dance...don't it?

That could suck start a Harley.

There are things that just should be not shown, that totally disgusted me.
If you can't do what Roonie does scratching video, don't do it at all.
 
I'm with you JT.... not really impressed. I'll admit though, I can't relate. Seemed very overdone and repetitous... and didn't even hold the beat very well!
 
Hey its OK, He has a niche market and he probably makes a good living at it, but i dont think the market would even support 100 dj's like this full time....

Truthfully I have much better use for my time then to learn how to scratch.

I'm honestly not trying to knock it. I couldn't do it. I'm just saying I personally don't see what the hype is about... it doesn't do anything for me.

Now if someone posted a wall of speakers and trusses full of lights (Val you around?) I would sit here drooling. :sqwink:
 
All good stuff. It's good to show that DJing is an art in many shapes and forms. The Laptop jock would have a hardtime understanding this stuff.


SORRY i dont consider it being a DJ, a performer maybe, but its no different then a guy putting 150 cigaretts in his mouth or some other freak show....

Its just a freak show.......cool for a few minutes but i doubt you would feel the same in an hour.
