It's Been Bothering Me.

rock91That shit is not music. ROCK and METAL is the only true music in this world. May The Rock Spirit be with you dancubs \m/

How about classical music? Is that not "true" music? Are you saying that Bach, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and Chopin aren't music?They're truer music than your "rock" and "metal" will ever be. Grow up.

LoonylionDJs in the traditional sense are not musicians. All they do is operate the sound system and choose tracks and fade between them with added effects.Some professional DJs these days create tracks almost as a side job. These people may be considered DJs and musicians. DJing itself does not make you a musician.

Loonylion said it best I think. If all they actually take part in creating the music rather than just shifting between songs then they have made music and therefore are a musician. But I suppose it really comes down to your own definition of a 'musician'.

if because they use computer programs i think they are some singers use autotune which i think is a computer program and you dont really need talent or skill with autotune

I think the proper term would be Sound Technician, not musician.
Some scratch, which is an art and some sample other songs to make new beats. It does take skill but it wouldn't make them musicians. DJs that don't scratch or sample and just pick which songs are played are not real DJs.

Music can be many many things...I find metal better than pop, but not better than J-Pop :)It's all about preferance, that's why there is so many...But I hope someone agree's with me about RnB and rap being "manufactured" rather than "real" like back in the day LOL!

Agreed :)

A muscican is a creator of sound,he creates the song structure,tone,riff,melody,tempo etc etc.A Artist.
So he is a muscican,not a technican lol......I dont like the music,but still see them as artists and muscicans,becasue they create music and sounds.

Sound Technician would be the more correct term for me. For presently, there is no proper term to call that person which excels in the Scratching and Mixing art, thus Sound Technician. My question has been pretty much answered. :)Calling them Sound Technicians aren't actually bashing them. It's more of a proper way of identification.

I like mike shinoda XD

He's a musician. He plays guitar, piano and sings.

I don't think DJ are musicians they are something beetween musician and creators of art AND STOP MOCKING OTHER PEOPLES TASTE OF MUSIC everyone has their own tastes
example:I hate rap and pop and love heavy metal and rock

You just answered your own statment,creators of art is a musician.music=art
Artist=Creator
Music +Creator= Musician

in a sense yes and at the same times not, I mean that DJ modifies the music and at the same time makes it his/her own looking
and sometimes makes his own music, in that case he is a musician
but some dont make their own music just mix it and those people I would call artists in their field but not musician.
we could argue all day long about this for this "line" is thin

The line is thin, but definite.
