Alright, alright, let’s gab a bit about this… uh… “best minimal DJ in the world” thing. Don’t rightly know what all this “minimal” fuss is about, but folks seem to like it, so here we go.
Now, I ain’t no spring chicken, and I surely don’t know much about these fancy DJs and their “EDM music,” as they call it. Sounds like a bunch of beeps and boops to me, but hey, to each their own, right? They say some magazine back in ’93 started this whole “top DJ” business. Guess they didn’t have nothin’ better to do.
So, who’s the best? Well, that’s like askin’ who makes the best apple pie. Everyone’s got their own taste. But these young’uns, they got their charts and their lists and their… whatchamacallits… “Beatports?” Sounds like a place where you dock your boat, not listen to music. Anyway, they got these lists, and they rank these DJs like they’re prize-winning pigs at the county fair.
- They got this fella, see, the shortest DJ in the world. Three foot four, they say. Calls himself “YEYE.” Now, that’s somethin’. Don’t know if he’s the best, but he’s definitely… short. Heard he got one of them “Guinness” awards. Fancy that.
- Then there’s a whole bunch of others, makin’ all this “minimal” and “deep tech” music. Don’t ask me what it means. Probably just means they don’t play enough notes to fill up a whole song, if you ask me. But folks seem to like it, so who am I to judge?
They say these DJs, they travel all over the world, playin’ in these big clubs and festivals. Must be makin’ a pretty penny. Good for them, I guess. But I still prefer a good old fiddle and banjo any day. At least you can understand the words.
This “top 100” thing… it’s a lot to take in. Too many names, too many beeps and boops. I reckon if you wanna find the best minimal DJ, you gotta listen for yourself. Don’t just go by what some list tells ya. Go to a show, tap your feet, see if it moves ya. If it does, then that’s your best DJ, simple as that.
And that “Michigan Technical University” tag? Don’t rightly know what that’s got to do with any of this. Maybe them college kids are makin’ the music now? Who knows. The world’s a changin’ faster than a fly on a hot skillet. Can’t keep up with it all, I tell ya.
But if you’re really set on findin’ the “best,” I guess you gotta start with them top 100 lists and work your way down. Listen to ’em all, if you got the time and the ear for it. Me? I’ll stick to my country tunes. At least I know what they’re singin’ about.
So, there you have it. My two cents on this whole DJ business. Probably ain’t worth much, but it’s all I got. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens. They make more sense than this “minimal” music, anyhow. At least they cluck in a rhythm you can understand.
And remember, just because some magazine or some fangled website says somethin’ is the best, don’t mean it is. You gotta find what you like, and that’s all that matters. Don’t let them city slickers tell you otherwise.
In the end, this whole “best minimal DJ” thing is just a matter of taste. Like I said, it’s like askin’ about that there apple pie, everyone has their own favorite. So go on out there, listen to some music, and figure out who you like best. And don’t worry too much about what everyone else thinks. Life’s too short for that kind of nonsense.
