The audiences in those videos always strike me as behaving more or less like most people here would behave. Some are into it, some are not, but the majority are just trying to figure out where to look and what to do with thier hands.





You gonna go and turn it up, though?
 
There was a good parody version on youtube called 'Toilet Room' featuring a guy from Swamp 81 djing and a bunch of people dancing in a toilet. It was surprisingly vibesy. unfortunately it's been made private.

my thoughts on basically every "cool" party in toronto i've been to in the last decade

Ditto. Though I'm assuming that pcmr is referring to miss lady in the foreground working the Thandie Newton/Minnie Mouse, there's a lot of contenders in that frame.





Shout out to all my long-haired ladies in the clurb who use the "lifting my hair to cool off" gesture as a smokescreen for spending inordinate amounts of time striking goddess poses.





Same shout to all my dudes with dreads running that same game--I see you, players!





Yes, yes--we all see you....
 
I watched a boiler room set with Q-bert last night, and there is such a sorry looking group of wall-warts standing around looking at phones and hands in pockets that you wonder how the fuck they made it to that place at that time to see qbert?





*an extra note on that - is Qbert and/or mix master mike going to get past this uncomfortable "I look like I am using Serato/Traktor for the first time" bullshit, I lot of the time it just looks like they are trying to figure out WTF is exactly going on - staring at their laptop trying to make sense of it all, and it seems like its impossible for him to "get into" what he's doing

Haha! that's just what every microwave user looks like.





The Pete Rock one is so bad on so many levels http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2ogrccoQKo

true but still its not like he was going nutso-futso on the ol 1's and 2's, he was completely letting beats play and just cutting over them, I saw Qbert play during the QFO release - that shit was un-dance-able..
 
There's just one going on now in Chicago. Seeing Paul Johnson DJing so close to the CDJs in his wheelchair, crowd jubilant, token cute Asian girls dancing up front, Paul heavily EQing the disco house - it all almost brought a tear to my eye. And yet I'm so out of the loop that I don't even know what club it's taking place.

Yup. I'm a fan of DJ Rashad and that juke/footwork sound in general. Looking to see what he does in 2014.

I think it's a great idea to experience a DJ's set, but would prefer them if the cameras were somehow less intrusive so the crowd aren't so awkward. Some good sets to be heard though. Think I prefer the ones where the focus is on the music as opposed to how 'wild & crazy everyone is getting'...

Maybe he's finally tired of making the same scribbly sounds after 20 years.
