[@jamestoni]

the scene has changed so much from 90-94 for me, give me a DJ with two channel mixer, vinyl and two 1210s proper rave and people not standing watching the DJs but actually enjoying themselves.

[@EK12149]

I have been thinking do these fake DJ's have conscious? Arent they embarrassed? WTF is happening? This is one of the prime reasons I gave up DJ'ing even though I am passionate about the profession and music.

[@abrahampalmer8761]

Great video at this point I'm so fed up with fake edm DJs aswell the fans can't tell the difference between real DJs that have real passion for the art form than fake DJs that only doing it for cloud fame and money.

[@peterfraser9890]

It is hard to tell who is real and fake these days. Although there are real underground producers and djs who are fully transparent and film their whole sets from their point of view. It's about time we start supporting artists like this as they don't get the recognition they deserve. Perfect example... kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5LCdoGGqN9liK8

[@greenpixel556]

the most hilarious is the amount of ppl that don't realize they are listening to fake DJ's

Thanks a lot!

[@freeakid9625]

Best compilation 👌

[@djmumma]

Great video and I’m pleased people are talking about this shameful fakery. It’s at pandemic level! Hilarious to see someone faking a load of rubbish when a track builds and then breaks…. That’s just the one track, doing what it does. Personally, if I go to see a Dj I REALLY want to hear them live, no messing around with pre recoded music and fakery. Just saw a video of Claptone on a boat, no headphones, knob twiddling like crazy and both CDJ’s and mixer turned off 🤣

[@DJNEDROY]

Thx to these guys havn fun with all these digital idiots

[@lunarthespacecat7772]

Lunar you give me the best videos in the world, i love you, i dont understand why but you really give me the best videos. and always are so helpful.

[@JeremiahHartmanPhotography]

What's really share is that a huge amount of fake DJs are women....which makes it even HARDER for REAL female DJs to make it and be respected. All of this fakery shows...the most well known and working DJ's are my age (in my 40s)..there are maybe 2 or 3 "young" DJs in the headliner scene that are real DJs and I can see a long career ahead of them. I hope some kids get serious about learning the craft and perfecting it...we're aging out and there's not a lot of talent to move up the ranks. As far as the festivals...most if not all require a pre-recorded set or at least a portion so they can time the lighting and pyro to it. Just the nature of the beast I guess with the festival circuit...the problem is inexperienced dj's think they can pull off a whole career with pre-recorded sets.

[@Jovani1888]

First guy was also not the actual dj of the set the guy he leaned over it is the actual dj first dude is just his friend there for support

[@Fabi2222221]

I did not know that something like this exists haha

[@audionerdzmusicschool]

Well now you do. IL saved your day once more ;)

[@GroundBeatDe]

hahaha, great video. Ive seen that in first hand. In many big electronic music festivals they dont do anything (of curse not every dj), its all pre recorded and sometimes they play the same set in both decks and they turn a couple of knobs. Its a shame.... i just dont know why, its so easy to mix with cdjs that i really dont understand why. Thats why i dont go to these type of venues anymore. Better to hear any local scratch dj, at least you can see and hear what they are doing. It does not sound perfect, so be prepared to hear non quantize music and errors made by djs...thats the real stuff. Even i use cds regularly , but i think pioneer killed the real dj industry, the devaluation of the music as a media and the 1000 producers per cm2 that regularly release bad music. ufff..got so much into my head. Scratch djs are doing so many things at one time that they even not have time to clap or spring like as....es. :D. Peace.

[@demodeiowa]

6:30 that’s a guitar multi effects professor lmao

[@inflameswetrust2194]

Yup. It’s literally just a multi pedal with a wah/volume swell on it…. I laughed so hard when I saw it.

[@piecerich7628]

Wow, of course I have heard about Steve Aoki. I know that he was at Findings Festival some time, perhaps several times. I saw him on the listing on posters only.

[@CDJPRODJ]

CDJ's & Computer DJ software was created because, People who could not mix for real using Technic 1200's & a Uri mixer. Would now be able to lie and become a fake DJ. Slamming the fader all the way up on a mixer & trying to line up beat grids using the sync button. Then turning down the hi mid & bass volume on a mixer channel and bring in another track that is off beat. Thank you for this video. All of these so called top DJ's are trash. The best way to stop all fake DJ's is to have them use technic 1200's and a rotary mixer. No computer or software. Let's see them play for real.

[@neilgillmore]

@ 6:40 You sure thats not a guitar pedal ?? Swear thats a wah wah pedal on it

[@InnocentAnglerfish-pr9cl]

Pioneer thinking. Do we need to design anything next? The deck just needs 2 buttons. Play & Stop

[@DJLouda]

first clip "air dj" has been cleared of his actions, hes a photographer, friend of the dj playing, and did it all on purpose.

[@jamestoni]

i was a DJ back in early 90s, technics 1210s, i could never take to cd decks, fell outta love with it. technics for real DJs.

[@Internet-Police]

Grew up with modern stuff like controlelrs etc. definitely requires skill though and there are indeed real and good skilled DJs who never played on vinyl

[@xiNchainsx]

Skill issue

[@lilDaveist]

Apparently the first guy was someone from the press who followed the actual DJ around for an evening and he didn’t want to stand besides him doing absolutely nothing. 😅

[@queentantrumofficial]

The one around five min probably is a parody cause that looks like a guitar multi fx board on the table.

dude at 6:40 is using a guitar pedal board as a DJ controller? i suppose at a push you could run audio through it and use it as an effects unit but that would be dumb.....it's gotta be a parody... thankfully there are still really good DJs around....fernanda martins is one of my favourite Djs with integrity...

The third example is not only not connected but it is a guitar multi effect unit and not a DJ controller. So I would guess, this is just a gag and not a fake DJ

[@jayenticknap3981]

The guys at 6:00 with the ‘controller’ without wires are using a Guitar FX pedal…this has to be a parody

[@monkstandinglast]

I could forgive having a couple or so tracks that are pre-recorded because you hit that golden remix whilst having a session on your own which you know you could never repeat again, like when you have 4 tracks all at once going smooth but a whole live session pre-recorded agreed embarrassing af lol🤣🤣🤣

[@mikesgamingcox1331]

I seen this first hand a dj that's been dj with CD he look at the vinyl and asked how do you sync, so me reply with your ears 😂

[@goonied]

While Laidback Luke is faking playing with Aoki and the other guy the truth is he is actually an insanely good real DJ. These festivals force them to play pre-recorded sets. In not defending it though, i think it sucks

[@audionerdzmusicschool]

I understand it only in the case where it is a requirement to fulfill the vision of any given show. for example with ISAM by Amon Tobin. Else there is no reason imo

[@rebecca_stone]

I've not been aware of festivals forcing anyone to play a pre-record (?), but if you're a pro at that high-profile level and have any sort of self-respect, you'd tell the festival NO WAY and simply refuse to do it.

[@ElectronicWitchcraft]

They make people pre record sets at gigs these days? To what end? That’s utterly mystifying to me.

[@rebecca_stone]

For some reason there's this pressure for DJs to always be seen to be "doing something" behind the decks. Maybe that's where this knob-twiddling comes from. You don't need to touch the knobs all exaggerated as though they were made of red hot metal too, lol! If anything you touch the EQs smooth and gentle. As a girl DJ, who used to play in the 90s on vinyl, and now with a controller, I know I do feel this expectation to "perform" which wasn't there in the "old days". I used to play in a booth off to the side, now promoters put you centre stage under a spotlight. As you know most of us are introverts and nerds, so I really hate that shit. Bring in your track beautifully, and have a little dance, then start prepping your next track. Watch the older real DJs on KZbin and they aren't fiddling with the mixer non stop. But then, the whole concept of "EDM" and these ridiculous mega trash festivals and horrible supersaw "music" are not my scene. So OMG yes, it really is so embarrassing. P.S. Those guys with the tiny mixer unplugged were definitely parody.

[@jeremey2072]

Agreed - I am sure we would get along great! - I started in 2000 though on vinyl and after many years of controllers, I'm ready to go back. That was a guitar pedal he was mixing on lol

[@user-sc6ft3hf6r]

Should call all these EDM fools button pushers. They arent real DJs. I challenge ANY EDM button pusher to battle a turntablist. Guaranteed loss after the first 4 bars of scratching or juggling.

[@surfcricket]

I appreciate everything you guys are saying, but however don't forget that international dj's have to try their hardest. When it comes to Allison wonderland, look up her back story, she is a total musician. She studied with music, and although you think she might not be doing great, if you watched that live set, it is amazing. #nobias, but i think she has done well for herself and is still pushing passion. Yes there were some songs where she did not fully commit but i think that she deserves a bit more appreciation. Also remember she has produced a few of her songs which are bangers. Look up her Red rocks performance
