whats everybody's view on mc's then ?
i no that in the scene that mark and my self are in mc's are very common, but in the techno scene there are none, which in my opinion is a good thing.
you have got the good mc's like ribbzy, ezy and ikon who no when to shut up and let the music do the talking.
but i think a mc should introduce the dj then fuk off for the rest of the set, there is nowt worse than some idiot waffaling on about complete shite over good tunes.
what do you lot think ???
I agree,
most mc's just like the sound of their own voices, some used to really get on my nerves, if i could, i would try and turn the volume down on the mike.
however, Ribbz is the best mc, he knows what to say and when to say it, he trully understands techno because he is a relly good techno dj too. a good mc like Ribbz can really help you as a dj. He has helped me out a lot, by getting the crowd going and into the music that i was playing, and afterall, that is what a good mc should do.

Didn't Ribbzy use to MC at the odd Atomic Jam event back in 95/96 ? Don't think many of the crowd appreciated it MCing though.
Personally when it comes to techno, I don't think there should be MCs. Someone to introduce the sets at the start is fine though.
For hardcore techno + gabba, yeah I suppose. Providing their minimal. This is where MCs with styles like Ribbz are good.
yeah MC's for techno - very bad idea. Ribbsy is the only person I'll ever trust with a MIC if I'm playing techno. Otherwise - f$%^£%^&*^%£*^%*^%£"*CK OFF!!! hahahaha...
i saw once a mc shoutin` in a mike while surgeon was playing!
i honestly thought tony`s gonna kill him. i never saw so much anger in someone`s eyes lol
mcs - no way jose
mc`s to techno!!! no way!
to hardcore techno, drum n bass & garage maybe... ribbz is the man when it comes to mc`ing though, pretty good myself.
who the hell thought some moron ranting about nothing through a set was a good idea in the first place? this phenomenon is / was definitely more popular in uk than us.
There's nothing worse than a MC gabbling pointless lyrics over good music. But when you do have a good MC like Ribbz at a party it does improve to the atmosphere and personally when i'm at a party where there is no MC i sometime miss them.
That my opinion from the dancefloor anyway.
