Editorial. This week in Bali.

It would seem being a DJ nowadays isn’t just about having an awesome selection of music and knowing when to press play, but also they appear to need comedian skills as well. One local DJ after the other, over the past year, has been posting comedy skits on their Instagram pages, with varying degrees of success, obviously in the hope of garnering more social interaction and in the end, more bums on seats at their next show. Of course, the more followers they can show to the club booking agent the more people are expected to turn up, so there’s a finacial benefit too. However, I’m not sure if it really is an indicator of how well they DJ and how great a show is going to be, unless punters are looking for a bit of comedy to spice up the normally lonely DJ decks. In the ever changing world of electronic music it is hard to say what will be next. Comedian DJs? I suppose they are, in the end, just entertainers and need to keep the party going in any way or form they can. Musicians, comedians, entertainers, who knows and you never know where it will end up. Fish on a stick perhaps! But must say, sometimes I too get a laugh and there’s no use in taking everything so damn seriously. Bring on the creativity!
