I agree with what you both are saying and at this stage I'm working on learning to drive my virus, sequencer, production techniques and what not, because the last thing I want to do is approach the right people with substandard material. I don't believe they will give you a second chance if you waste their time and make them listen to amatuer, poorly produced, unoriginal shite.
When I started DJing, I worked really hard, and when I was better than average I started playing out, and had quite a fast rise to the top of the local scene because here was this new guy with skillz. I intend to do the same with my producing, unfortunately it takes exponentially longer to be a good producer then a good DJ.
I hear great music in my head, I just need the skills and gear to get it out. Now I've got most of the essential gear and its just the knowledge and skills lacking. Ah patience is truly a virtue.
