I'm middle aged and don't see the point of Instagram since I can just share pictures on The Facebook. Got like... 3 pictures on there. Every once and a while one a picture of a well-oiled butt or boobs likes one of the three pictures of me and my children on their and sends a friend request. Is that what instagram modelling is? Casting a wide net of requests to get likes or shares or whatever with a picture of your butt?

Pac-Manioc Root posted:Is that what instagram modelling is? Casting a wide net of requests to get likes or shares or whatever with a picture of your butt? Yes. They hashtag words that are both relevant and irrelevant to the photo and their mood, follow as many people in their search feed as possible, in the hopes of getting likes and follows. The likes are for dickwaving and potential endorsement opportunities, the follows make them "influential". Instagram is the photo equivalent of the social status stock market, for vapid socialites. The more followers and likes you get, the more you can justify obsessing over your appearance, which probably helps them deal with crippling depression. The more popular and hot you are, the more wealthy dudes will sugar daddy their amazon wishlists. I personally know a girl who got random internet strangers to buy her a $5,000 boob job, various clothing, art supplies, sex toys, shoes and makeup. Just because of having an Instagram.  That same girl had a bit of a meltdown when a few people unfollowed her page. "I just don't understand why someone would unfollow me. It sucks to think someone just stopped caring about my posts."

A DMC turntablist DJ doing a competition/juggle/scratch routine for hours on end at a meat market sleaze club full of bros who want to get "wet slit" will get glassed. A left/right/left/right club/festival DJ is going to get ABSOLUTELY slayed in a DMC comp. (Unless you've won a title. A-TRAK is a good example... well because he won DMC, ITF and Vestax) A controllerist fails to meet rules of DMC - so can't participate. Also probably doesn't have routines/sample chops for a 2 hour set at dive club. I go to DMC heats/finals to appreciate their techniques and choices. I see my favourite turntablists because I like their work - especially if they work with their original sounds/samples. I see controllerists they do some wonky poo poo with gameboys/guitar heros controllers and broken toys. I'll see left/right/left/right Djs if their mixes are good and their selections make me dance/nod/drink Superstar festival "DJs" do nought for me. I went to Ultra twice, and the second time, spent days 2 and 3 drinking on the lawn outside because it was more fun than DJs making heart hands and yelling about "party peopleeeee". 'sall horses for courses. There are different types of guitarists, genres, DJs and musicians. Follow what you like. My IRL

Yeah, this is how I look at the whole thing too. One time, a small time DJ that used to go to school with me took out his laptop while we were talking to check something out on the internet and on a huge sticker on the cover of his laptop it was written ''DJ music is music too!!''. It was the most try hard, insecure thing ever.

I once took a bus and there was a guy with two turntables on his knees mixing some poo poo, probably a wheels on the bus mashup, who cares. he had a waxed mustache and a bow tie. That guy was the worst.

It also has an accelerometer/gyroscope, for some reason, and it's like $200. You can probably make one yourself to save some money, or if non-arcade buttons are fine get an Ableton Launchpad knockoff.

You can probably make one yourself to save some money, or if non-arcade buttons are fine get an Ableton Launchpad knockoff. Midifighters are actually neat little products.  What buttons are better for being mashed on a million times than arcade buttons? Also it has some unique firmware that let's you do whatever you can imagine right out of the box. For instance, effect trigger "combos" by holding certian buttons in order. To replicate a midifighter on a launchpad would take a deep understanding of macro chaining commands in traktor, if it's even possible. It emulates the Traktor F1, whereas the launchpad would either be read as a generic midi controller, or a launchpad meaning it wouldn't function the same.

synthetik posted:It's the same thing with any music genre. 99% of bands play their brothers wedding one time and are barely passable, only the top 0.1% are Radiohead or Seether or Zeppelin or whatever. Most people that are into the electronic music scene for the music have no respect for Avicii/Garret/Guettea, but seeing PVD do live remixes or Girl Talk killing himself on stage for a six hour stretch is massive. I just want Calvin Harris to gently caress off and Tiesto well to start
