It's like genres isn't it? You have different facets to music all the way through from playlist curators, bloggers, radio station presenters to the DJ mixers, audio engineers and musicians themselves.
These all require a skill set of some description... Can't we all just get along and share our respective skills and interests without prejudice?
Yes man - totally agree! But it is common in all professions, some feel they are more special, skilled or talented as others :-). Especially in Art such as music and design pretty hard as all is based on taste - and what is talent - hard to judge. To me the outcome, so the fun or joy the audience - no matter how big and who - counts.
Yeah where there is a person, there's an ego to contend with right? Haha
I'm all about the outcome and if the receiver of your creation enjoys it, that's all that matters really!
