I have to agree with you patrik re: the shoe gazing. I get a bit dissed by beard strokers myself, they dont seem to understand that as much as a peice of music, my tracks are a tool, used to make people dance. I'd be writing jazz if i wanted a bunch of twats standing around looking intelectual and stroking thier beards in a club, what is needed is dancability..
I think this comes 70/30 from the quality of the record/djs skillz.
But i have to say that sometimes a mix can transform 2 shite tunes into an amazing track that makes you just want to rip your y-fronts off and jump on top of the stack swinging em round your head like a baboon on heat. Unfortunatly this ocurrence is rare, usually it is the tracks themselves that make me do such things.
