Why do people go more crazy for a rewind than the track itself. surely if a track is THAT good, you'd want to hear the track play rather than rewind it,
and if a track has been playing for less than a second, how do you know whether or not you need a rewind (if at all)?
with people going nuts for a rewind - I think its just building off the initial hype that the tune initially produced, for me at least, if a tune I'm mad about is played, it'll be getting a good reaction anyway, but if they pull it at just the right moment, and it really deserves it (ie. it's not just another pull in a set full of them) then that really builds the hype up for me to another level, personally I much prefer rewinds in grime and garage than in dubstep, but I do hate it when people pull a tune when its only been playing about 10-15 seconds, thats ridiculous, the whole point is you pull it to re-live the moment after the intro when everything comes together and has that big reaction, if you pull it during the intro you haven't even got there yet!

i think its just cos you can hear people more when the tune gets rewound and cuts out, plus its like an automatic cue to start getting rowdy and shout. generally you can tell within the 1st 10 seconds of a tune dropping if it deserves a wheel up, i personally like giving them quick after the drop if i gonna do it, cos its more of a tease then, instead of it doing it like 64 bars into the tune when people are already familiarised with it. also i know i went well overkill with the rewinds the other night, really sorry about that i got a bit carried away. always happens when i play up notts cos people just go so apeshit!

like i said man. you were fuckin joke and you played sick tunes. that tune at the end - that breakbeat one was fuckin wicked and that eastern jam remix. i was tryin to enjoy it whilst bein elbowed in the teeth and bein used as a leaning post by some rather happy and jumpy students. your set was killer though, room was rammed and the energy was unreal. the thing that got me writin about that night was that kromestar dropped a tune and literally as it dropped, i mean the first kick, he pulled it. that's what puzzled me. i think i remember you sayin "im goin a bit mad with the rewinds", but it was for tunes that everyone was ecstatic about and it fit well.
im gonna say this to clear it up if people readin the thread have the wrong idea. i have no beef with what dj's do, im not gonna say it's wrong because i have no place sayin that. it's their set. if a rewind fits, it can fit very well, and even make me laugh (i actually ended up on the floor with laughter when you dropped and rewound chainsaw calligraphy last year at rubberdub's birthday - the first time i heard it.)

i like rewinds on a huge tune right as it drops so its more of a teaser than anything

there are certain tunes that have to be rewinded ie (a jakes or coki banger).....those are musts
i really don't think rewinding should be based only on the crowds reaction
rewinds should only be done to tracks with apeshit basslines that make you feel like your on drugs when your sober
such as warface 2010 or black widow spider by babysham
i don't wanna hear a fucking rewind of eastern jam

Lets see, Rusko dropped Pro Nails, they startin mashin commercial hip-hop over step, and it all climaxed with ChaseNStatus doin that Rhianna shit. Now they have to play the breeze, it makes the trendy kids pee themselves.

Well, we all have different options... Hang out to where the type of beats you like were played. Don't bother to waste time or money then to others.. Lol

don't mind people that power mix through tunes, so much as the people that wheel every tune 5 times and don't bother to mix at all. That would be shit. Sorry you had a bad time. Like was said above you should hit up another night if that isn't your style.
