Also, why do people call themselves DJs when they don't even mix music, much less jockey disks?

@abigpony It's an old term but I guess it's stuck as a general term for people who still do sets. And for producers, **shrug** I guess it "sounds cool" to them
-
@abigpony I mix music.
-
@neurario producers don't call themselves DJs and there are still legitimate DJs out there. People who don't DJ should just find another name.
-
@abigpony I'm going to use Distortionist.
-
@sirdiskscratch But do you jockey disks? Also, what's Distortionist?
-
@abigpony Distortionist refers to my unique style of music i call DISTORTION. No i do not jockey disks, all my stuff is Digital. I dont think it went through earlier though, so if anyone wants a copy of my stuff please PM, however i can not send the Stag Party remixes, dont have the right to yet.
-
@sirdiskscratch Distortion is an effect. Do you just add distortion to stuff?
-
@abigpony Not exactly. I up the gain by aprox. 95 Db and add static, then a few personal touching, maybe envoleping and a few other things.
-
@sirdiskscratch Eew
-
@abigpony What?
-
@sirdiskscratch Adding cheap effects to music professionally.
-
@abigpony Cheap? I'll have you know those "personal touches" are usually custom effects i made myself and random bass drops throughout the song!
-
@sirdiskscratch im firin my bass cannon >:D
-
@nikkie2898 My bass cannon consists of 2 pa systems, 1 medium speaker, and 6 medium small speakers.

@sirdiskscratch making cheap custom effects is still making cheap effects. Bass drops are eh. Whatever. i can give you something for that, but it's still nothing to do with DJing.
-
@sirdiskscratch coooool
-
@abigpony I cant even describe the effect of my changes to you.
-
@neurario ALL MY YES
-
@sirdiskscratch No. let me listen so I can criticize it myself.
-
@abigpony I cannot upload my specials, they are not fin! I can give you my deadly distortion though, how do i upload these things?
-
@sirdiskscratch You don't have a soundcloud or anything?
-
@abigpony Soundcloud? i just give hard copies!
-
@sirdiskscratch I can actually admire that. Hard copies are rad. Soundcloud you can upload audio an stuff and it's just hosted online. That or bandcamp it seems, but bandcamp is for original music.
-
@abigpony Okay its uploading, am i using that word right? It is ready soon.
-
@sirdiskscratch You seem awfully technologically illiterate for being a "DJ"
-
@abigpony I dont upload much. I code, and i mix.
-
@abigpony its either that, or the fact that i've fueled myself on nothing but red bull and pepsi for 3 days now

@nikkie2898 Verified.

@sirdiskscratch Seems like you'd still know things like "uploading". Also, you cshould cut the Red Bull, it's terrible for you.
