We are starting to hear it from all sorts of new electronic music fans, over the last couple years the main stage hag gotten tired, really tired. Superstar DJ fatigue is setting in and it’s spreading like the zombie virus on theWalking Dead, the infected are just swaying in front of the speakers brain dead looking for bass. Think of Darius as Rick Grimes putting a knife in your head, they will free you from the monotony of main stage big room sameness. Or maybe you love it, that’s fine too, zombie on brothers and sisters, we can’t save everyone.
Don’t believe it, listen to this mash up by Daleri (aka Rick Gimes in this analogy) and look at the track listing below. It’s pretty obvious that there is a massive creative rut, what happened to “Think Different?”
