"FOR TOO LONG you've preyed upon and suppressed my spirit with tuneless, angry, dimented sounds, insidiously manipulated to dull my senses and unsettle my soul. The darkness you invoke has provided a catalyst for legions of my brothers to succumb to crystal meth; many now helpless addicts, or dead. In selfishly spinning for yourself and your twisted diva, Tina, you abused your power and betrayed my trust, facilitating and presiding over so much pain, anguish misery and suffering. Yet you show no remorse, making you no different than her cooks and pushers. But enough! I'm tired of being assaulted by the pervasive, soul-deadening pounding of 'crystal music'.
I want to hear words, feel the love and see the spirit and light flow freely in our once-sacred spaces again; not be sedated by the noise of pots banging, pans pounding, chainsaws pulsating, fog horns wailing, cats drowning and toilets flushing. Are you listening, Mr. DJ? You know who you are. You, with your rampant ego, who has driven thousands away with your arrogant belief that hell on earth is what we crave; who has closed down countless venues since you changed your tune and the stimulant which blackens your heart and sustains you into the 'after hours'.
It's time to repent and let the light back in; to let the sun shine again. Are you listening, Mr. DJ?"
~ 'A Circuit Survivor'
JUNIOR VASQUEZ, the instigator of 'crystal music' on the US party scene, has admitted
to spinning whilst high on meth for five years.
Some are now vocal in their desire to play real dance music again but are all talk and no action, while others like Brett Henricksen are now selling out to the darkness and pots and pans. Any DJs out there care to explain what's going on? editor@lifeormeth
