Discoveries-They Would Have Happened Anyway
It was awesome mate, i'd give my right one to go back and experience it again If the record isn't to some peoples taste fair enough but its one of the iconic tunes of our scene and one of my all time top 5 - "one of those novelty type records they played at Wigan"….. If you were there you were lucky IMO

Empty Dancefloor - Dj Reactions
What you said was "every DJ worth his salt should be striving to fill the dance floor" What that results in, in my experience, is the said DJ's playing the same, safe records because they're afraid that something outside that bracket will clear the floor.

Empty Dancefloor - Dj Reactions
Dance floors are for dancing on and its a dance based scene, there's nothing better than a packed floor and an atmosphere you can cut with a knife - agreed. BUT and here's the big but - nights out AREN'T for going out week after week, month after month and year after year to hear the SAME hammered to death records which is what happens in general. If you've got to do this to keep the floor full, count me out - its enough to bore you to death! I know the thread isn't exactly about this but this issue is at the heart of the debate! Only my humble opinion of course
