I can forgive the guy for mixing cheesy pop house (cos let's face it, there are
DJs out there who are into it, and if they really enjoy the music they spin,
more power to 'em) but putting your name in the mix?!?!? (it's a different
story, though if you get some MC to name-check you in a rhyme, and that MC makes
a record out of it, and you put it in your mix...or if you find some record that
contains a sample of words that just happen to be your DJ name, tha'ts cool),
but "DJ Federico...ico..." UGH! That's the lowest. THE LOWEST!
Confession time...
I must admit that due to bad experiences with arrogant people back in my junior
high/high school days that owned a pair of turntables and somehow call
themselves DJs, I have always had somewhat of a prejudice against DJs...this
newsgroup and the DJs I know currently have helped me overcome that and open my
mind somewhat, but ol' DJ Federico's little display of vanity helped brew those
old feelings back again...
I normally don't condone violence, but if anyone here lives in the Boston area
and personally delivers "DJ Federico...ico..."' a serious ass-kicking, I will
greatly reward you.
