I had a look on youtube at what DJ Dimension does and to be honest I dont think their is any talent to what he does at all, he is not playing an instrument just a mixing machine.
To me it seems like he has mixed sounds together on a computer (even I can do that) and plays these sounds at a gig with synchronized lights.
No talent at all but as I say thats just my opinion, feel free to agree or disagree with me.

We are biased. We know what real music is.

I'm more concerned that he broke the rules, than about the music he plays.
Sorry after the fact, means nothing.

I don't care what kind of music he performs. He could be the world's finest Operatic tenor and I would still hate him for his selfishness, arrogance and mendaciousness.

No point in hating this damned fool. Save it for important stuff.

I quite like it, but then I like quite a bit of techno (or whatever its called - I often have no idea what genre I'm listening to) although I prefer Underworld, Boris Brechja or Sama Abdulhadi.
But then apparently I have 'weird taste' in music.
I think that once you hit 60-70, you're supposed to start listening to Charlie Pride, but I've heard Charlie Pride so that was never going to happen.

Yes I would say you have very weird tastes in music and as for Charlie Pride I never listed to him when he was popular and certainly dont intend to start now.
In fact I never listen to Country or Country and western rubbish.

I listen to a few diverse genres and Spotify has great fun creating playlists for me. Renaissance polyphony, Ry Cooder, Peter Tosh and Nick Cave do not form a comfortable family and I get some really bizarre suggestions.

I like Ry Cooder; he's a really interesting musician. He did Talking Timbuktu an album with an African musician who's since died, Ali Farka Toure which I really like, & often listen to. He also did the music for the Crossroads movie.
Not so keen on Nick Cave though.

Not so keen on Nick Cave though. Ry Cooder's son  Joachim  is a percussionist and is worth listening to.  They have recorded together quite a lot in recent years and it's a treat to hear.
(edited to add) I don't know why those fonts are so peculiar - not intentional on my part.

There's a song included with the article, Morning blues which Ry Cooder used to play to his son & now plays to his grandkids; the version is Joachim Cooder.

No such thing as real music, it is all just music. Now with these DJs, there is quite a bit of live mixing going on. They will creating songs in the past using a whole bunch of instruments and mix them together. Maybe it isn't practical to take everything on stage at once, who knows?

If we were a mature species we wouldn't elect them, we'd give them counselling.

It would be no good giving politicians counseling because we all know they wont listen
