The ones I like are minimalistic, know when to say smth and communicate with the DJ during the performance. Things I've seen I absolutely hate: - MC's not knowing the tracks being played, most noticably when ranting on while there are lyrics in the track. - MC's just saying smth cause they didn't say smth for a while cause they couldn't fit it in in the track. - Calling for rewinds. I find rewinds themself already pritty retarded tbh, was one of the things that rly amazed me when I started going to dnb parties. They are not my thing - and an MC shouting for one should not be done without communicating with the DJ first. - Constant 'flow' over the music. It's the music I want to listen to, not some guy thinking he has something interesting to say which nobody understands a anyway. - Repeating stuff over and over again - MC's who think they are the center of the universe on-stage. A lot of MC's I've seen simply act as if they are the master of the stage and they deserve all the credit. An MC can be part of the performance - sure, but they should keep relatively low profile and know what their place is on-stage. I think the majority of sucky performances with MC's gave me this 'oh no an mc' feeling when I see one on a flyer or stage. Also - the stuff I listen to (the harder stuff) is usually a bit harder to MC on, and a lot of times tracks are not really suitable for MC'ing.. __ Sleep is a poor substitute for coffee 11-10-2007 13:35 Surya The Robot Registration Date: 04-11-2002 Posts: 11,238 Helpfulness rating:  Nothing to add to that.
