So I was writing the weekly newsletter and realizing that in the superhero world, super-powerless Bruce Wayne is a great way to explain to people (who know superheros but not DJ equipment?) the difference between DJs who are simply pressing play versus those who put in work onstage and put on a great live show.
Most superheros rely heavily on their flashy superpowers to be a successful hero - to the point that in a fight, all Superman has to do is show up. Batman relies on his gear, cunning, and tools to help him survive in a battle, since he’s constrained by his mortality. This ultimately makes him more interesting than an invincible hero.
My brain isn’t quite up to fleshing out a full thesis on this at the moment, so all I’m tryna say is:
Batman is to Superman what Dubfire is to David Guetta.
But Spacecamp, what you’re trying to say is, David Guetta is posing and being granted props for his appearance, though dubfire is more on a downlow; a little bit regarded as a MIDI vigilante, who let’s his actions do him and his followers justice.
Than again, Batman is known to have hit Supes, handed him his behind, quite some times by using kryptonite gloves.
In that case, I would really love to see how you would regard “the Darkness” or “Wolverine” and who would be the Hulk?
I would definitely see Richie Hawtin as Mr. Fantastic and Speedy J and Chris Liebing… welll… who knows.
All I know is, Jester.NZ and myself would still be running for the role of Thor. (Even though I have already been appointed Thor since “the Avengers” movie. ! )
