November 2008 show & Deadmoo5e walking…

Posted in News on November 29, 2008 by digressionsessions

It worries me a lot when people like Deadmau get high ranking within certain Top 100 DJ polls. I know the poll is public voting and in no way representetive of the staff who run them, but Deadmau is the one who was quoted as saying that the time of the DJ was coming to an end. Yet is then happy to charge twenty pounds a ticket for people to go and see him play.

If he really thinks that DJ’ing is over then why is he out there on the circuit making cash from it. There are many DJ’s out there who love the job and would kill for prime slots at places like Matter, yet will never get the chance. It is my feeling that if you are a producer or Dj and have no respect for your audience then you should give it up and move on.

People who pay to go out clubbing want to see DJ’s play live and not get spoken down to or taken for a ride. This is just my feeling and obviously other people may feel different to me, but that is the good thing about the internet, we can air our views and respond to criticism alomost instantly.

Digression Sessions will be celebrating its 1 year anniversary by delivering you a four and a half hour show partly recorded from Club Therapy: Digression Sessions Special club event. The event was held two weeks ago in northern Finland, Oulu and the entire evening was hosted by the Digression Session DJ’s: Jimmy H., Timo Juuti and Andy Piney. The sets were recorded and two of them will be aired on DS 1 year anniversary show. Unfortunately, due to technical glitch Jimmys set cannot be aired so instead he will be re-playing it live on air. The staff will spend the entire four and a half hours with you, chatting both on air and on web.

First of all, this blog site got finally up, stay tuned ;) All the basic information and a bit more can be found on the pages behind the links on the right side. In news feed we’ll announce everything you need to know what’s happening with the show, tracklistings, guest djs, contests, etc.
