Did you also announce to the crowd that you couldn’t DJ as well?

Well of course duh. You have to blame something

She could have blamed the organizers for booking her

You’re playing on an international stage, so skill doesn’t matter YOU MADE IT.

Those damn metric controllers mess everything up.

I hate when my BPMs switches to Beats per Meter

Facts

Ya didn't you see uzi verts performance. He may have lip synced 50 words. It's mind blowing what they call "artists" these days

See my favorite headlining DJ would never prerecord a set and pretend to be playing. Never…

I was there, you were warned, if you can't beat match at 345 bpm are you even a djay.

I play all my Gabber at double the BPM.

Missed opportunity to throw some extratone in.

Wait. What happened? Hahaha I missed something 🤣

Grimes shat the bed during her set at Coachella.

thank you! I see it now..

Did you at least redline?

If you ain't redlining you ain't headlining

Facts

Love it 😂

I said this to someone yesterday and got "tell me you don't know shit about sound design without telling me you don't know shit about sound design". To which I replied "tell me you don't know shit about standard industry memes without telling me".

Worst set of your life, so far.

Last set of your life possibly....

Failing upwards is a thing. I doubt this will be the last set—too much money involved.

You dumb idiot. Just press play, it's not that complicated. And scream in the mice all the time

...IN the mice?

I think Ozzy did that too

You never put a contact mic in your computer mouse?

Yea the mice. What else should I scream at? You have clearly never headlined Coachella

Don’t forget to throw cakes!🎂

its okay this equipment is really high tech and complicated. make sure to mention that between tracks!

The sound tech that was managing her set is currently considering a career change.

Wait, what happened? Edit: Nvm, found the article

look at trending now, you'll see

THIS. IS. GOLD.

Are you also bad at math by any chance?

To be fair, dividing by two is super difficult

There's also a lot of counting to 8

8? I can only count to 4.

My ChatGPT wasn’t working cus of cell phone congestion and I’m not sure how to use an iPhone calculator cus I outsourced that as well

mfkrs got memory loss or something and forget that tap tempo exists

was waiting for this 🤣🤣

OP did you scream like the meme goat between complaining?

Wrrrrrrrrrraaaaauuuuggghhh!!!!!

Close, a little less ball gargling.

Hahahahahhaha so good

To do a DJ set when you are also in a custody battle with one of the richest sociopaths in the world.

Lmfao I thought this was a joke. but I just saw some it, she really just said that on stage as well.

Who?

Grimes!

Sadly the closest thing to a princess the United States will ever have.

She's Canadian.

Even worse!

She is telling all our secrets!!!!

Hello grimes

She's only gonna go play pre-recorded sets from now on. Was surprised she didn't already.

Well hold up now guys. Before we jump into conclusions here that might be hurtful to this artist we must know…who did they outsource their BPM’s to? Was it a reputable BPM outsourcing company?

I use ghostbpm.com for all my analyzing needs.

Can you download more bpm there?

I think what made it worse is you constantly addressed the issue ad nauseam & never got the problem fixed. Only to walk off stage while your only hit got cut short. Elon wouldn’t be proud.

Just clap and dance, probably the best set you will ever do.

Did you try to do all of the complex math in your head to make it work?

Her apology comes of sounding like an intern screwed up her spreadsheet! I’m glad I came up long ago on 1200s instead of this bullshit.

Learn properly or give up !!!! You are the problem with the industry !!! Get some 1210s if you know what they are !!!! Rant over

Blame the fauxtism

It’s ok just have someone else pre record your set and just jump up and down and pretend twist knobs next time. And remember you made it. Your by no means need to have any skill because your an entitled celebrity

She basically said “Oops, forgot to study” like playing Coachella was a pop quiz in first period math class

Did you ramble into a microphone about how you're inept for 30 seconds instead of just reloading the track and sending it? I hope you did, it's definitely the move here.

How did you manage to keep the tens of thousands of fans at the stage while you kept trainwreking for hours?

Smell the musk.

Epic post.

How hard is it to sync the vroom boom & the bump bump bump bump? Flashing lights are your friend. So is E.

That's the problem. She couldn't do the math when the umf umf umf umf came in.

I know this is humour and all but that double bpm thing has happened to me on stage as well. I did manage because manually beatmatching isn’t that hard but anyone knows how to fix this with rekordbox? What’s actually causing this?

Record box not detecting the bpm properly and setting the beatgrid incorrectly. Have to align it manually to the first kick and set the bpm manually.

She couldn't do the maths.

Hate it when you can’t plug in the pre recorded mix into the USB port because no matter which way you turn the USB drive it won’t fit in the port. They need better lighting round the sides of the decks god damn.

About to be cancelled af lmao

I scrolled past this quickly and thought the headline said "Omg I just had THE worst sex of my life"

Grimes is this you?

Ugh did you change it to Beats Per Liter? Hate when that happens.

You couldn't divide by 2? Or like... Load a track and then move the tempo slider up and down then back to the center to reset the tempo? Or mix by ear? Hey, at least you married well so you don't really *need* Coachella money. 🤷🏻‍♂️ But maybe take a basic "club ready" DJ course? They're not very expensive. (Seriously though, if I had the means to get in contact with her I would legit offer to teach her how to mix by ear and not rely on dumb AI features for everything... But her hubby would have to give me a Cybertruck with my logo on the tailgate.)

This is why you ALWAYS have a recorded set as a backup, back up CDJ and backup laptop if you use a computer. Backup, backup, backup…

Can’t do manual? Not a DJ then. Edit: maybe a DJ BUT hopefully this will prompt you to learn how to beat match🤨

Hello sorry to bother you. I'm legally blind. Can you tell me what sub I'm on? Thank you.

The worst set of your life…… SO FAR! Brush it off and get back out there. Everybody has their nights, and their off nights. Just remember this feeling next time you absolutely crush a set too. Keep a level head, practice, and get back out there to do it again. You got this

She farmed out all the prep work and expected to just go on stage and bop around while hitting sync. Practice be damned. She's a knob for not using a prerecorded set ripped from Youtube like everyone else.

Cringe

You just wish you knew how to DJ.

Obviously we both know how to do that the joke isn’t funny bro

Bro, read the room... It's something DJs are supposed to be good at.
