From certain performers all the way down to the patrons of techno events, this city is full of fake fucks who do this shit for the wrong reasons. it’s been going on for too long. We (DTM) could give a fuck about what most of the scenesters think about us. Every time we play out, whether it be individually, or together, we; rock the house, play with style and class, and have a great time wherever we are at. Being able to play out with people who share the same views about techno in detroit, as myself, is a blessing. It’s guaranteed whenever I play with these guys, I will have a great night and get to hear some of the best DJ talent that this city has to offer. I don’t see that a lot with other people. It’s more of a competition. We compete with each other. But it’s more of a learning experience. I think we each learn something from the other when we tag, or even listen to each other’s mix CDs. I’ve never really seen the kind of friendship and respect that we have in the techno community before. Not to mention the musical knowledge between us. I don’t think there’s a techno record that, collectively, at least one of us is unfamiliar with.
