I am new to house music (about a year) and I have been on an amazing journey. I noticed what some might call "snobbery" a long time ago, and I definitely would understand why someone would think it about this forum.
However, in every pursuit I have, I am a purist. I see this place as the home of *pure* electronic music, whatever that means.
I notice that there's never much discussion of fairly mainstream DJs or producers, and wonder why that is. And I'm not talking about David Guetta or Avicii. I mean guys like DJ Pierre, Marshall Jefferson and more recently Seth Troxler or KiNK. It seems to be more European DJs, most of which I've never heard of. I've seen Carl Craig and Villalobos threads, but that's about it. Even the parties in my hometown are completely obscure and immensely "artsy".
It leads me to ask, who do the members of mnml listen to? Is this a house or techno forum, and is that why I have difficulty identifying anyone? Or am I just not "pure" enough yet...
