I agree with the voting that p. gabriel mentioned. I came on board late, but even the fact that people have to sign up to vote is a bit deterring. Aside, if you’d like to hear my mix, here’s the link: http://www.letsmix.com/mix/29031/dj_nova_jade___in_it_to_win_it_flashforward_mix

I work in an office with over 100 people (all the office computers work of one/two IP address). I send a group email out to every person asking to vote. But since only one vote can be made from an IP address many people set up a personal account so they could get their vote in. Is this illegal?

I’ll follow a time DJ Exerion, and when he was quallified he had a vote rating of 4.9 and now he has in 1 day a vote rating of 4.3, thats only through those 1 star voters. I hope the points of the vote rating has come back to everyone. Only than it is a fair game.

We have to remember everyone is a DJ. It’s funny how many people DJ. And a lot of them suck. It can be a fun hobby but leave the clubs and shows to the talented ones. A lot of them get shows because they are friends with so and so. But true talent, hard work and passion always win in the end.”

I wish that was the truth bro, but it is simply not. Getting a DJ gig/residency is 90% who you know, regardless of talent level. I spin residencies in 3 states, and not one of those came solely because of my skills behind the wheels. I realized early on that, knowing somebody who knows somebody, and overall networking, is the key. Just a reality. With that said, you would think I could pick and choose where I play? Wrong, same principles apply. Even in my hometown I cant spin everywhere I want. Why? Because the same 5 guys play the all hotspots. And while a couple of them are decent djs, they keep out the dozens of others that could keep the local scene “fresh”. But yo, it is what is playa. My advice to all up and comers: practice, practice, practice…..then go out and network, with everyone. Being a full time DJ is like being a full time salesperson, and in the end, the sale comes to down to perception of the product. In this case, that product is YOU. Now, it doesn’t take a lot of time to become a decent Serato/Club DJ. It does however, take time to rock a 3 hour set, complete with surprises, and have the dance floor in the palm of your hands when the lights come up. Nothing beats that. ———– Big ups to all local DJs holding down their scene. Peace!!

@curtis matthew You are right… but look. My mix was a good one: 4.6 and not only friends voted me… maybe 1/4 are friends… the rest I gained on the site, social networks, blogs, forums and so… promoting promoting…
And now my work is now=0 because those voters. This 1 star vote makes them better? What they have to gain? My ratio is down with 0.3 in 3 hours. What a shame.. shame shame shame…
I can’t wait to meet those people to see what they are capable of: I provoke anyone of those.. to see their true skill (beside the skill of mousing 1 star – I have to recognize I’m not good at that).
Cowards!!!!
