    Default DJ Promotion Photos

    Is there anything more dumb than a DJ promo phot where the DJ is wearing headphones?
    All these photo`s of DJ`s standing in the road, or on a train, or in a photo studio or whatever, and the gimps standing there with headphones on.
    It`s a bit unecessary, you`re a DJ, you don`t really need to emphasise the point by standing in the street looking "mean" with your mickey mouse ears on.

    I vote for more originality in DJ Photo`s.

    Bahhh

    If you never met him and know nothing about him at all, then how can you KNOW that he's an arsehole? Just because a few people on here said so? Chump.

    Philippe is one of the nicest people I know......so what if he wants to have this as his press picture - that's his business. For you to call him an arsehole because you dont like it, is not only rude, but immature.

    I'd like to see what you look like.....you probably dont even photograph half as well as he does.....

    What gets me is the person who posted the pic was signed to his label.

    philippe is a spot on bloke there's no doubt about that. he knows how to use the promotion game and i'm sure that pic served it purpose somewhere. but come on the issue is not whether a thinks he is an ass or b thinks he's cool, it's surely steve's first post - the overuse of headphones.

    personally i have never done this on press shoots, cause i too think it's a little cheesy. but i suppose if you have a flyer to design for a big club night, you're going to love having a pic of the main dj wearing his headphones looking cool. it's gonna sell the night.

    i mean i see what steve's saying here, a little bit more experimental and clever is the way to go, but that's totally personal preference. interesting topic but let's steer clear of just having digs at certain shots eh?????

    eh? ive not been signed to Preach's label mate, nor do i imagine will i be

    lets not take this the wrong way now everyone, no need to call the guy an arsehole at all whoever it was who did that, i here nothing but the nicest words spoken of Phillipe and rightly so, his music may not be to everyones tastes but thats irrelevant when it comes to the person involved.

    No one is above a bit of ribbing though, and that pic is genuinly hilariously over pretentious.

    doesnt make him a bad person though at all though, who knows the pic maybe tongue in cheek, but still either way, its a classic

    Well it was Scot who posted the pic dude.
    I`m assuming you are talking about me.
    In which case
    a) I was never signed to Phillipes label as far as I can remember
    b) I didn`t post that pic
    c) Are you telling me you don`t break your mates balls
    d) Did you change the batteries in your sense of humour yet?

    This is a ridiculous photo, but philip is a really nice lad, for someone playing on the level he is playing, he`s surprisingly un-egotsitic.
    But, that`s still a terrible photo.

    It was a bad copy of a Simpons joke when Homer get done for sexual harrassment and a woman is interviewed about him.
