MotownDave Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Kev if i play a £200 record its my choice ,my integrity is stil in tact,if he plays a £ 5 boot i really dont care.i may be upset but i'm not gonna loose any sleep over it.if the guy before plays some of the records i have but plays of boots i'll just have to play something else i generally have 200 count box so they cant play everything..im not saying its right ,what i am saying is none of us will ever convince these people that what they are doing is in any way wrong.so we may as well acsept that it happens and just get on with it. i never sought out a DJ spot or was ever that bothered if i did or didn't DJ I am first and foremost a collector though it nice to let other hear the records you like,but the only places i'm likeley to be asked to play at are the place where boots will be played thats the nature of the beast no point in worrying about it you just have to play the hand thats delt all the best dave t 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) SUPERCORSA said: Whilst I'm having a rant, another issue I wish to take umbrage with. The stance some take with regards records on the Kent (Ace) label. It's ok to play say a 100 Club anniversary single of a previously unreleased track, but not ok to play a straight forward Kent release (for arguements sake - Melba Moores, Magic Touch). Yet Ady Croasdell has stated on this site that the 100 Club releases are in someway promotional copies and no dues are paid on them, yet dues are paid on the standard releases & CD's these help to promote (I apologise if I'm wrong on this point). So why should a dj who plays the Kent release (which they have bought new from a dealer) of say Tobi Lark, in which royalties are paid to the appropriate people (artist/writers/etc), be made out to be a phoney because he hasn't got an original piece of Topper vinyl spinning on the decks? Also many other great tracks released on the Kent label and royalties paid, yet I don't see too many on here willing to take pot-shots at Ady and others at ACE for undermining their scene with the re-issue of these records. No, because Ady (and others like him) have done great things for this scene, the magnificent Kent albums, 6T's allnighters and Cleethorpes weekenders to name, but 3. ....Fair point but most people who buy these releases get pleasure from playing them at home, it would indeed be interesting to hear ADY'S view on this, would he be ok with those records being played by DJ'S at his events?....The other thing is before everybody go's too far down 'Integrity Rd', whilst most of us love original vinyl, let's have a bit of honesty...This is not about Artists and paying dues, in fact the vast majority of DJ's in the UK and Europe have never kept records of the records they play in a public environment and the relevant royalties are in the main never paid whereas most CD jukeboxes etc have the relevanr chips built into software and the companies who own the licenses pay out yearly royalties to the music publishing industry...We are on a loose wicket as regards 'integriity' if we are only talking about the egos hurt when somebody plays a new Kent original before another DJ slams on a £200 quid original...And DON VARNER is far from being the only artist who did not react with joy when he learnt what type of sums his record was changing hands for...When I told FRANCES NERO her record was regularly listed at £125 a couple of years ago, she did not jump for joy either, at the end of the day, it's probably more than she was originally paid for the recording session...Now I have seen this subject raised before and people instantly dismiss it but there needs to be some ration applied here..Playing ovo may be preferable to most of us on here but it does not grant the purveyors some type of 'saintly' immunity from reality.....

Guest Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 this is my very last post in these forums and then i will stick to sales/wants/artist & label of the week I helped promote an all-nighter which was OVO ... two fantastic DJ's in the line-up; Dr Pickles and Pete Lyster ... two first class dj's. all this b*ll*cks about "let us know so we can chose to go or not" is complete horsesh*t. How many of you that shout your mouths off about attending this kind of event bothered to get your arse in gear and attend it? this was a fantastic night with top sounds being played right across the board. Although it was VERY well attended my guess would be that less than 2% of those commenting in this thread chose to come to it ....and I'm being very generous I think with that percentage. OVO .... will I go ..... probably not but I like to shout as loud as I can about it...ffs 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post viphitman Posted October 18, 2011 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Most painters got paid bugger all but when I go to a gallery I like to see the real mona lisa. I am all for quality and traditions whether I buy cheese, a car or whatever. Many aspects of life are watered down and everyone feels the effects of it due to globalisation outsourcing and so on. Sometimes it is very very difficult to avoid it .....But I want the friggin real deal!!!! Original records, german cars build in Germany, cheddar cheese from Somerset, a nice glass of bordeaux from Bordeaux, beef & veg from my local area, a member ship owned football club....

Geeselad Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Alleluyah! Pete I dont look down my nose at punters who just love the music, and of course the music can be enjoyed on that level, but I'm no ted! and for my collecting is really about listening to fresh sounds, digging the crates, as those young beatsters would put it. I dont hear about hoards of download and CD collectors turning up new sounds on a regular basis. I think the real reason the OVO heads get down on pressings is that the oldies curcuit and its lack of respect for the real ethos represents the death of the scene. swap yer drainpipes for a pair of spencers anyone?

Guest Marky Tee Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Hello to Ali the children who's Mummy & Daddy are in the 50% of we just want to go out and have a god night, and only moan at the cost of finding a baby sitter, in case the cheap one niks some of daddy's bootleg records, Don't forget Boys & Girls to tell them when you get a bit older, Granddad DAVE said, when you die, it would of been better to lEAVE SOME original rare records, than a pile of worthless Bootlegs, What kind of inheritance is that to leave? a real soul brother or sister would not have wasted my Sweet money and left us alone with a baby sitter while pretending to all-nighter goers, It was all a front for you to get stoned! "that's what Granddad Dave said! Now close your eyes you tight fisted f**ker and thanks for nothing' GOOD NIGHT CHILDREN EVERY WHERE, GOOD NIGHT DAVES AUTO EGO To be honest I would prefer to leave my grandchildren a decent grasp of our wonderful language, complete with correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. More important methinks to little Tyrone and Tanisha than a collection of records they most likely will never care about, let alone play, one would have thought. You get the idea, I lost interest after the first line. 2/10 SEE ME Dave I was not aware you were dyslexic, my sincerest apologies. I was trying to point out that there are more important things in life than OVO/Boots etc. Edited October 18, 2011 by Marky Tee Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
