seriously. i had a whole heartfelt post written up about how this should sting extra as a former nightclub dj and such a huge fan of her music. it should, but honestly who didn’t expect something like this? the joke is clearly on us, guys. why shouldn't i just shitpost memes in response? i genuinely hope she's okay longterm. but in the interim, you get what you give afaic.
Her claim is that the assistant fucked up the beat markers.
Poor markers.
I traded in my Art Angels vinyl for seven bucks in store credit the other day. I'm sure I have music by objectively worse people in my record collection, but I can't deal with the unrelenting, embarrassing disappointment.

maybe understandable / acceptable if yr playing to ten mates in a bar, but beyond unprofessional / unbelievable to be so badly prepared in such a scenario.
a five year old could learn to do what she was trying to do in an hour. maybe two hours if also learning how to manage recordbox.
of course it's all actually a win as despite having some new haters she has managed to generate masses of brand awareness over this.

If it is has happened before obv she should have initiated a CAPA plan and implemented a solution with the appropriate external and internal stakeholders

sounds like she did do an appearance at her boyfriend’s set that went fine! maybe she can consult him on where the beat sync button is

Such bullshit blaming her team. Her recent “dj set” on Mexico was similarly riddled with mistakes. Doesn’t seem like she gives enough of a fuck. It takes like a minute to analyze songs on rekordbox. Sounds like she can’t beatmatch or divide by two.
Her appearance at Anyma’s set was fine… if just standing there and doing some half assed performance at some animations is fine.

Tbh given her past reputation as a Weird Indie Girl she could so easily go all out on the costume design/clothing at her shows and hire actual designers for original stuff but instead we’re getting not one but TWO colours of the Malenia Elden Ring 3D printed helmet that she can’t see OR mix a DJ set with

Am I hallucinating or did she start playing some vivaldi at one point?

I wouldn’t be surprised if she mistakenly started playing an audiobook at this point.

Malenia Elden Ring 3D printed helmet
i wonder if the malenia thing is a dog whistle at this point, since the character is clearly modeled after the wagnerian brunnhilde
