Fame is never straightforward. RA's latest film about touring DJs takes a journey across Europe with Seth Troxler, one of electronic music's most controversial and widely recognised characters.
Visit the feature page on RA:
www.residentadv...
There's a lot to unpack with Seth Troxler. The American DJ and producer has come to symbolise the notion of DJs as rock stars. He courts controversy, says what's on his mind and parties harder than most. But Troxler is no senseless hedonist. Since establishing himself in the late '00s through a string of leftfield house releases, he's become known as a man who thinks deeply about his art and his life. By simply being himself, Troxler attracted a kind of cult following-the fans, the hangers-on, the naysayers. As a result, he feels he struggles to be taken seriously, and he's keenly aware of how his lifestyle negatively impacts his relationships. But when you strip away all of these connected issues, you're left with a highly driven DJ who knows exactly what it takes to lead a life of the road. This sense of complexity and opposing forces is something that Troxler contemplated as we tailed him across Europe for our latest Between The Beats.

Great video This guy, along with Darius Syrossian and only a handful more, are probably the most brutally honest and open people in the industry who don't hide behind anything to be popular its clear its done for the love of the music.

@florianarconada6074 9 жыл бұрын

yes, true, but id say Syrossian has a more positive outlook on things, if you follow him closely you will see that he loves what he is doing and always states bow lucky he is and the downsides are a small price to pay for doing what you love. the Motor City Drum Ensemble documentary though i liked very much, when he was being honest about his anxiety was interesting. anyway bravo RA for bringing us these documentaries.

@nicknavaro503 9 жыл бұрын

Dear Resident Advisor, I've now seen Seth, Nina, TMB and Motor City videos, and to be honest, they are all pretty bland. They all say the same stuff.. I'm a DJ, life on the road is like this, see what the future brings... How about shooting some older guys like Laurent Garnier (as Seth mentions) or Sneak, Radiohead, Sven Vath, Kenny Larkin, Jeff Mills, Robert Owens etc etc.. just people who will actually have more interesting things to say... People under 30 who just gig every weekend and don't have much other input in the music industry is boring... Very well shot and produced videos, just need more substance over style... Thanks.

@KR8TZ 9 жыл бұрын

Nick,I work in music and I've been fortunate to meet most of the guys that you've mentioned. This is a twenty minute shot and the format is based on life on the road and not an indepth look at their lives in general. Seth is a very interesting fellow as are Kenny,Laurent Sneak and a bunch of others whom you haven't named. Mills doesn't talk much and Sven's got his own problems,lol. Seth and Kenny are clowns,Laurent is a bit more introspective and doesn't really like talking about just music. Sneak is kind of quiet,but don't get him started with food. Robert Hood can come off as cold at first but is a nice guy to talk to. Nina Kravitz is a self absorbed diva who really isn't fun to be around and neither is her ex boyfriend the anally retentive Ben Klock. Motor City is a tool but he plays great music and I could run down a few more but I'll stop there. I think that it's the film format that is limiting these guys,and not the guys themselves because I know for a fact that Seth has much more to say than what he said here. This is just to give an idea of gig hopping,time to set and what do I want to do when it's over.

KR8TZ haha i figured that about seth and kenny! ive met seth a couple of times. Didnt wanna get too up in his face because he gets a shit load enough of that already, just wanted to give him some quiet props for the tunes. He was extremely nice and was good for a giggle each time. I'm a massive MCDE fan, love what he does! surprised to hear that! thanks for the response! Cracked up at analy retentive Klock. Does he need to have a specific bottle of water from a certain stream from a certain time of year haha? something like that

having no life and doing more than 150 gigs/year, it's a choice... becoming manic or psychopath isn't about dj's, it's human when you have no life outwards, sleep just few hours and do parties 2-3 days a week whith all these extreme behavior... seth i love your mixes and taste of music but stop this race for money and fame, and be a true artist, go to the studio to be a real creator and producer, do half gigs/year, and enjoying life outside parties... you wil be happier... peace

@chrisatkinson8621 9 жыл бұрын

I agree when he talks about people asking for photos for Instagram likes, not because they're a fan of who they are having a picture with. It's great to see the other side of dance/house music being discovered and being popular but it's often for the wrong reasons. I was walking past the Line for warehouse project in Manchester last night and I may be stereotyping to an extent but the majority of people there are only there to say they are there and for Facebook and Twitter, the majority buy the ticket and then KZfaq who's on the bill

It's pretty sad to see how full of himself this guy is. He complains about fans wanting to take his picture, calls himself one of the best DJs in the world, but doesn't want the attention that comes with being a big deal. Has other people carry his vinyl, flys all over the world, lives a great life, and makes all of it sound like a really big pain in his ass. I bet he got into Djing for the love of the music. He should remember that.

@Riddimz 9 жыл бұрын

He isn't complaining about fans wanting his picture he is complaining because most people are just doing it to show people that o hey look i met Seth Troxler and not taking the memory of it and also if you didn't understand he just wants to be viewed as another member as society yes he is one hell of a dj but he thinks the real people who should be big are doctors and things like that open your ears man damn

he speaks of the gospel and changing minds, yet the industry that supports him is itself made of nepotism and favoritism, which destroys itself every 5 or so years, and the chance of real talent in electronic music or any sense of democracy ..resident advisor being a classic example of the same industrial hype and hoopla ...
