JANUARY 2004
All right, here is the word, the scene really is one sided in Chicago and blows.
Politics reign between promoters and club owners other ignorant cash collecting individuals in charge.
This in turn like many other areas of leisurely activity affects the fans, the club goers, the partiers, music lovers, and people desiring quality when they are there for a good time.
Our free time is important, especially in an age where people are working more and playing less. Many people take it seriously while others stagnate or have given up and settled to whatever we have in Chi-town.
Our advice, stick with a promoter you know will give you a good time, not just the ones that write hype whatever supposed big name dj they put on the flyer.
We at motif8music do more than just have a dj at a party. We do more than throw an event at a club that you heard was hot. It is also important to take into consideration that the best dance parties in Chicago, are not always happening at a club or bar, but sometimes at good old fashioned house parties. We try to provide the right atmosphere...we don't care how you look or how much you suck up or how much money you spend. It's all about the love for the music and having a good time with the right vibe. The right vibe includes individuals that envision partying in a special way - people that are awake to the age we live in. The global dance alliance of dance music.
In the future I personally may be sacrificing my dj abilities to work in other areas of the industry (such as promotions). I feel this is the best way to wake up my neighbors in this city and beyond and also to promote myself and create stability and organization to an otherwise chaotic scene.
