I don't need to be encouraged to dance, sorry... Best! Edu

...and there's people out there that can do a great job with it; Roger Banks springs to mind (not to mention Terry Jones, but that's really going to the fun fair...and -me, personally- enjoying every minute of it )...but the usual mumbling cacophony reminds me way too much of being in a not so glamurous bingo... And, as i said before, don't get me started on the "get on the f****n floor" distasfeful howls... Best! Edu

Agreed...funny how some other not so rarety obsessed music scenes don't need to use the mike as a regular basis on their nighters....maybe there's a certain need to say I AM HERE and THESE ARE MY RARE RECORDS? Let's face it, nobody needs to hear "and here comes this, that and the other" when most of people that go to parties know 80 % of the records anyway (not so many venturous Dj's out there, are there? )...and, if by chance something you don't know -and may be interesting- is played, there are high chances that it's going to be covered up and, therefore, announced under a false name...so, again, what's the point? Let the music speak by itself: if it's good, people will dance to it...if they don't, it's for reasons non musically related. But, alas, this is the northern soul scene, isn't it? And one last point about the use -and, more like, abuse- of the mike...why people have the need to let all their testosterone and aggressiveness go when presenting some of the most sophisticated pieces of music ever created...? That REALLY turns me off, big time! Best! Edu

Not sure if i'm able to talk for the rest of Europe, but the use of the mike has never been too popular outside UK...I'm not knocking it, but it certainly does nothing for me: i rather hear the music flow and the songs to nearly blend with the next; the "storytelling" that comes with djing is much smoother this way IMO...and, agreed, most of the times you don't hear anything - or you wish you hadn't! Best! Edu
