Is it just me or does it seem that "strictly" EDM DJ's are the most cocky, big headed, full of themselves type of DJ's out there? I've met so very few EDM DJ's who aren't completely full of themselves yet they don't even know how to play an opening set, can't play for 4 people, demand the big crowd and the prime slots, can't adapt to the crowd when their premade set isn't vibing. Like WTF IS GOING ON HERE? How do you expect to be taken seriously in this business when you can't do what your ONE job is? You're not JUST playing some tunes, you've gotta make it work. How many different EDM genres are out there that you can play to make things work? Why do you bash other DJ's and producers who are succeeding yet you're nowhere?
Debate.
I guess more of a vent. Are Top 40 DJ's and wedding/event DJ's this way? I started out as a top 40 DJ in clubs, but strictly do EDM now so it's all I deal with when booking for our events. Good lord these people are the biggest divas who expect to be praised for their inexperience because they have one good track. Whatever happened to working your way up to the top and supporting other people along the way?
