I know this was discuss in depth in this other thread here:
I just watched something else someone sent to me, nearing the end it shows him miming a mix and using a pre-recording cd in a cdj.
I know this is discussed to death and whatever, but still I guess it should be out and discussed either way. For number dj in the world I would hope he actually mixed.
yeah its a long thread though. I figure the new info part to the video we discussed before should be discuss. I just think its interesting to see this. Miming sets seems to be increasingly more in peoples eyes or maybe we are paying attention more.
“Mixing Table” lol. He’s “number 1” because of the popularity of his productions, not his mixing ability. I’d say a lot of sets for high profile events like those in the video are pre recorded. And at the end of the day if you’re going to see David Guetta you’re going to see him, not hear a good DJ set.
I think as hobbyists, professionals and enthusiasts of the craft then naturally we are paying a lot more attention than the mass of fans who simply wouldn’t know or care for anything other than the David Guetta bandwagon and persona.
Charlie Chaplin made a career out of miming. maybe Guetta has him listed as one of his influences.
Thats what I love about this forum, I learn something new everyday
me being curious had to google to find this answer out. for anyone interested [ame=“Let them eat cake - Wikipedia”]Let them eat cake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]
I find this below amusing from the link.
*In Chinese culture, there is (attributed to Emperor Hui of Jin by the book Zizhi Tongjian) a similar story that involves rice and meat, instead of bread and cake: “an ancient Chinese emperor who, being told that his subjects didn’t have enough rice to eat, replied, 'Why don’t they eat meat?”
The obsession with bread, grain and sugar during the French Revolution is something that amazes me. What better reason to have a revolution ?
Pretty much the basis of Western Democracy including that of the USofA was all because of a massive war about people hoarding sugar and grain.
1789 - Sugar
Now- Oil
Strange world we live. I wonder if David Guetta makes his own cakes or has them delivered and then tells his guests: “My name is David Guetta, and I baked these cakes”
