The Objekivity boss was apparently asked to stop his set at Mansion in Miami this past weekend for not "play[ing] commercial enough!!"

He did this to himself. This is what happens when you play to an audience that perceives house to be David Guetta. He is now treated like a 17 year old guy playing in a lame hipster club owned by drug dealers. The most funny part is the comments on his facebook post.

Blows my mind that people can get so pissed off at djs. They get so tied up in recognizing the track, not in reacting to it, make me feel like we're all just angry dogs.

How is it his fault and not whoever booked him? Did they not hear him before they asked him to play?

It's not really a big deal anyway, he'll have been a bit disappointed at the time, he'll find it pretty funny now, no harm done.

Had a look at mansionmiami.com. They have Sharam and Paul Ritch booked, if the management didn't think D.F was commercial enough, they're gonna hate Paul Ritch:D

I just read a post on fb about mark farina being to step down because he wasn't playing commercial enough. Mark farina, dennis Ferrer. You can't get much better. There's a whole new element to our thing, and its called EDM. They can have the acronym, the huge disconnected festivals and the pimped out talent. Some people say the scene here in the US is progressing. I think not. Its all surface. I couldn't believe the response I heard from some, especially 'the godfather' FB, about how great edc was here in nj and how good it was for the us scene. If you think so you can have it in all its glory. Ill stay here in nyc in some unknown basement with a subpar soundsystem with people who came for the same reason. Im not against growth and inclusion and the expansion of a culture. Just not like this. Sorry for the rant, im just disappointed, but I have faith in the underground and the youth who will keep it alive.
