    A lot of the internet is pure self-promotion, it's not about the quality of the music, it's about being a part of the whole. Otherwise you don't exist if you don't post something. It's also about likes and followers. I think it's smart phone victims. They can't use the smart phone properly and they can't put it away, so they are dependent on it. What is missing is media literacy and knowing what it does to you and how to stay self-sufficient and self-determined. Because they all do it like that, like lemmings into the abyss.

    In my opinion, the stultification is in full swing. Who still reads books about music and mixing or visits the evening or adult education center to acquire knowledge. What do you want to do professionally, my son? "Something with smart phones is the answer. In the past people went to the library and today they go shopping.

    The rest makes standard music, one song sounds like the other. Oh yeah what's the latest - oh autotune yes must also take, otherwise I do not belong to it. Today's music sounds like the reflection of the inner state. No plan why something is as it is. Education, where should the education also come from, Siri explains in 30 seconds world. Twitter explains a topic in 280 characters. In my opinion, 90% of music - videos and photos are junk. With all the garbage, you make your brain sticky, until you no longer know where up and down is. Should idle time be, you wait for the bus, you do not give his brain a break and zack the phone out and read a few news.

    The OP is only with himself and explains his I state, he is not able to see the big picture. Man alter go there and introduce myself and express your positive as well as negative criticism. Offer her your help. Only with said criticism something becomes better. (You can also say that you devalue others to enhance yourself).

    Haven't read all of the above so forgive me if I'm repeating anybody's opinion.
    In my spare time I do 2 things: make music and take pictures.
    People call me a photographer or a musician while I stick to the former.

    This girl doesn't call herself a DJ if I read the poster's post correctly.
    The only thing she does is put her happiness that she probably finds in mixing music out there for the world to see and hear.
    Who cares how much money she's spent on her hobby? It's her money but most of all it's her enjoyment.
    She might think she is good or maybe totally the opposite. Regardless of that she at least has the balls to face the fact that she
    probably will get (negative) feedback since there will always be people that like to put others down.
    I'm not saying you do but put some of your own work on display before judging (since at least that is what you are doing) before anybody else.

    I wish that as far as my music is concerned I would have the same balls to put something out there.
    So I stay away from remarks like yours and until you do please be a little bit kinder (even it is only in your mind)

    They are very talented, except i just mute audio and listen to something. i just enjoy what I SEE i dont give a like or dislike just leaves my opinion neutral. If i want to give a like there is another place called pornhub. If u guys think im a sexist thats ok. I dont know if they are talented or not. They are popular because 1. they covering an already popular song, 2. i dont have to say..:rofl: I have only one thing to say, these ppl are just lowering the standards of other talented musicians, im talking about women in particular. Social media is now getting saturated with stuff like these,

    Edit:- Heres another, from a long time ago had to search, like i said if had listened to the song i wouldve remembered

    Sure, but you are talking about something personal. Your music. This isn't that. At all. In 2022, it's unlikely that this "dj" person even has their own collection of music on physical media; nevermind an actual vinyl collection. We're literally talking about someone who is trying to be a human mp3 jukebox on youtube.

    So what is anyone being all "sensitive" about this for? Because it's not a guy, flat out. You certainly aren't ripping this person's music, because that does not even exist.

    I may not agree with all he said but I understand the OP's point. It's been around for quite some time in fact. I find some criticisms towards him too hard.
    That said, too few information to form an opinion of this particular case.

    Hahahaha, it’s the complete opposite.
    your remark revealed YOUR problem and sensitivity pretty fast.

    Among the hundreds of thousands of male losers used to exhibit their complete lack of charm, knowledge, talent through the end of time since the stone age up till now..

    the problem is some chicks doing their thing. gtfo

    my problem with what? people who mix mp3s? I don't care what this guy/girl do on youtube or off. but if someone made a thread about someone who cannot dj and is a male, noone would bat an eye at it. "And?". So perhaps your story is just a bit short on plot development to me. :)

    I actualy felt like everybody in here had an opinion that was valid through whatever lense. Some people get their gear then go balls to the wall showing everyone their excitement while others tread slowly in secret but it doesn't matter because both types learn about the slow development of progress in the end.

    Either way, I'd rather be halfway up a ladder I want to be on than all the way up one I don't.

    About criticism:
    Humans are fallible and failure is inevitable.
    Anyone thinking of a future for the human race is deluded.
    I only wish the next form of "intelligent life" is more consciously aware.
    That is my "criticism".
