Still have not received my reply after many efforts to contact both the dance@fanime email and yours. i submitted my application back in october and so I would really appreciate the courtesy of a reply for the application i took a lot of time to fill out nicely. Especially since it appears im not on the bill

[eHash]

q-on:
I believe i only received 1 email from you on the 25th which I gave you a formal response this morning.

Until we sort out who is bringing equipment for the 3rd room on my staff (since it is not provided the con),
I am unable to book someone for this room. 

I need to understand the rules governing the equipment set by the owner first.  The person who provides
equipment for this room does so at their own risk.  If another DJ damages it (blows the speakers or breaks
knobs on the mixer), it is at the owner's loss. <- because of this I am not willing to lock the dance into a
situation where we can't manage the content/programming of it.

[Q-0n]

what if i were able to find someone to supply the equipment (tables and mixer) for my set?

This is already a prequisite of the third room.  You would also need to provide 3 tops and 2 subs and let everyone spinning this room use it and if anything breaks it's on you.  This is why we are still negotiating the equipment for this room.

TWERK? is that even a genre? so bothered by underage people " twerking "

This is probably way too early to ask, but when would the next years DJ application be up to apply for? I completely missed this years, but I don't want to miss an opportunity for next years haha. I've been going to Fanime for the for the passed 8 years and would love to finally spin one of the nights (: If anyone needs to be subbed out for any of the nights I'm completely willing to step in! https://soundcloud.com/alansoulmixes

I really dig the huge variety of music, but I can't help notice... where's the love for Dubstep? I mean, Trap is OK, but what gives?

I really dig the huge variety of music, but I can't help notice... where's the love for Dubstep? I mean, Trap is OK, but what gives?

As someone who has tried a touch of dubstep in their set last year, it seemed like more people left and weren't into it moreso than into it. I also know in previous years, the outcry from guests was more negative towards dubstep at the dance so it's inclusion as a featured genre was omitted. Since it is not a featured genre, that does not mean any given DJ will not play dubstep at all in their sets.

I did find the genres a little confusing though as there isn't JPop as a genre and KPop is. As well as Top 40 not being it's own genre as all Electro House isn't Top 40 and vise vesa. What is really confusing is how Hardcore, DnB and Electro House are subgenres of Trance. wut

The wub in dubstep will be integrated throughout a lot of electro house/trap steps....dubstep did not get a really good turnout the last 2 years. people showed up. bobbed their heads, then moved on.

Hey guys,

I don't know where else to put this but here goes.  I want to know if any of you know of any HAPPY HARDCORE/DNB remixes of ANIME themes.  I have PLENTY of remixes of videogame tracks and so forth but there's a major hole in the anime department and I REALLY want to make an effort to fill this for you guys.  So far I only have an Inner Universe remix that is really good but that's just about it.  LEMME KNOW ASAP.

Once again I would like to thank the Fanime staff for being selected this year. It's definitely one of my favorite things I have had the opportunity to have done these past two years and will hope to be selected again next year.
