Why are most of the famous DJs European?
I have noticed that most of the House DJs that perform at Tomorrowland are from Europe. Avicii, Basshunter, Swedish House Mafia, Alesso, and Sebastian Ingrosso are all Swedish. Nicky Romero, Tiësto, Martin Garrix, Armin van Burren, Showtek, Hardwell, and Afrojack are all Dutch. Zedd is Russian/German. Cedric Gervais, David Guetta, and Klingande are all French. Benny Benassi, and Eiffel 65 are Italian. Cascada is German. Alexandra Stan is Romanian. I think Darude is from Finland. Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike are Belgian. There are many more but these are all the ones I can think of right now. Why are so many of them European. And has anybody else made this observation?
What are and were the best European DJs that mixed Drum'n'bass with HipHop?
If youre talking about mixing in the dj sense, it just wont work really, the BPM will not match up, which is why its rarely done, but if you're looking for remixes in the producing sense, I suggest looking through 'soundcloud' as remixing hip hop to drum and bass isnt really a mainstream thing. But you will find good things on there with the right hashtags.
Who is the best European DJ?
My personal favourite is Calvin Harris.
Which one is better: European nightlife or US nightlife?
European night life is insane!! Most major cities in the US have laws that bars and clubs have to close by 1am or 2am. So most people get to the bar around 9pm. There are a few exceptions like Las Vegas and NYC that remain open later/all night. When I was in Greece, we took a nap until midnight, got the club at 1am and didn't leave until it was closing at 7am! And everyone in Europe seems very into dj's and techno music and actual dancing and getting very dressed up, whereas in the US we aren't really into the music, we just go in casual clothes to stand around talking and drinking lol
Why is trance music not as popular in the US than in Europe?
Probably because trance music originated in Europe? Dance music in general is much more popular in Europe than in the US. Rap/hip-hop is also much more popular in the US than in Europe. My guess is that there are more American rap/hip-hop producers, and that there are more European trance producers. Rap/hip-hop music here is mainstream, so it is unlikely that an 'underground' music genre like trance is going to suddenly become more popular. Most of my classmates here in California don't know what trance music is either. Poor them. ;)
Does anyone know of any european techno artists similar to basshunter and crazy loop?
Paul van Dyk Pulsedriver DJ Tiesto
Why do so many European DJs speak good English?
I don't know those names, other than Avicii, but will take a few guesses....Because they are big name DJs in Europe, I assume they have spent a lot of time working in many different countries. So, they have had many opportunties to speak English in their 'everyday' life. Speaking English served a real purpose for them (Can I have a beer?) so they were motivated to do it. Also, I find that people with a very international perspective do well with learning languages. Again, they are motivated because they genuinely want to connect with people all over the world. Does that description fit these guys?In my experience, people who are relaxed (not uptight) can learn languages really well. A big part of my job is to get clients to stop judging themselve and just chill the fuck out! When I get them to relax, they can speak much better. I don't know much about the DJ world, but my sense is that it's not uptight. So that helps.I'd be curious to hear what you think.Natalie, natdevo.comP.S. I can't believe I forgot to mention that the fact that they are musicians, which means that they are professional listeners, plays a HUGE role in why they have such impressive English skills. Learning begins with listening. Also, attaining a high level in any one skill makes it more likely you can attain a high level in another. You know what's required to master those final stages and you have faith in yourself that you can do it.
What factors enabled europeans to colonize africa?
I am afraid I have to agree with DJ here, the books "Guns, Germs and Steel" goes a long way in to describing how and why it was "Europe" as the big winner of the18th/20th centuries (counting the USA as "Europe" in this case, as it is a "European" led country) big kernel grains, in a East West grow area instead of Africa's North/South, coupled with large beasts of burden (horse, etc) Equatorial Africa had no large kernel grains, and had not as diverse of large "pulling" animals... this, with the fact that every few degrees north/south you go, you have to allow for time for the grain to change to fit the growing season, and you have a very stunted population growth... The "Germs" aspect - when you have lots of animals around, and your population is growing fast and thick, you develop diseases faster and those diseases become more lethal... so when your people, with their small pox, show up in some far off place, that is not used to it, it causes effects that far out of proportion to what it did in the homeland where everyone has a built in immunity (at some level) to it. Guns and Steel aspect - when your society is closer together, and is growing food by farming and not "hunter gatherer" anymore, you have people with idle time, which can invent things, like the plow, the club, and the uzi.
