I'm not into your lane musically but I respect your insistence on never doing recorded sets, your technical ability and your general attitude. I totally agree with no phones. They're a blight on the scene and have been since they became the norm at parties.
Me too as it was Nokia 95s and they were terrible in the dark, and that’s only if you wasn’t on the blackberry hype, which also had terrible cameras and I never was. Even iPhone up to three iPhone 10, were terrible in the dark.
Phones are only a small part of the equation. It's the culture that needs to change. It's celebrity culture. there are whole genres that are about celebrity, not music. and it's infected every form of dance music. It's now displayed like a concert as if it were a band. That was never the role of a DJ. There should be no "stage" for the DJ, and dancers should not be facing them, they should be facing each other and dancing. If we can get back to celebrating the music not the DJ , at parties not concerts, dance music could recover. Of course those making the stuff will need to make music worth dancing too as well, surprising how many dance 'producers' don't know how to make dance music.
Have stickers for the phone cameras, that sends a pretty direct signal that no filming is allowed :) Worked for our parties atleast! Not cheap if they are good quality, but worth it!
Here in The Netherlands (well mainly in Amsterdam) we have some clubs which put a sticker on your phone's cameras, even the front. It sends the signal over + reminds people when they take their phone out. Also people stick the stickers when back home on the back of their phone as a souvenir
In Berlin that's pretty much the standard for the good clubs Makes it more of a "safe space" for people to just party however they like without fear of being filmed
I think the problem with this at Hï is that you can walk around and go in and out of different rooms so if phones are allowed in the main room and bathroom but not the club room then it doesn't really work
@@Berto2Kyeah theres always been those ar$eholes around. Folk that don’t want to do as the artist or venue asks. Just look like a chump if u’ve been asked not to
You just reminded me of my grandpa, he used to say: "we did the same kind of stupid things as you do today, but the only difference is that we had no internet back then for everyone to see how stupid we were" and it makes a lot of sense now.
I started clubbing in the 90s. Went out to enjoy the music and Djs. No phones just everyone dancing and having a good time. It puts me off going to a club nowadays cause all you get is someone holding their phone in the air instead of enjoying the night.
This is because underground clubbing doesn't rely on celebrity culture. This is why I think a no-phones policy for James Hype won't work in a place like Ibiza. An island where people come from all around the world to see him who is the star of the show on a DJ stage, so of course they will film.
I like when people have their phones. I don't use mine, as I like to be present, but I appreciate they ruin their own good time and allow me to watch the night when they post them.
I help run a local event in my city, we enforce stickers on camera/flash, people still take them off and record videos, it's extremely hard to enforce.
It's very sad to see "clubbers" on the "dance floor" not clubbing or dancing! And in Ibiza! Long gone are the days of going mental for the music, and pure euphoria. I feel for the DJs. It's rude, wrong, and everyone is missing out.
I was there in Freiburg and despite the rain, people celebrated so much. It was a great evening and an incredible atmosphere I'm looking for the remix from minute 9:20. Can someone help me?
Memories keep in your head, not on your Phones! And its so nice to see myself in the second row of the crowd in Freiburg, in your video. :) That`s amazing :) And see you in a shirt from my favorite Sportsteam is
I agree with this, I spent alot of time in raves in the late 90s and we just danced hard, none of this standing there recording. I came to see you in London last year and was not like the raves etc I use to know. Have a good time shock out and forget about phones.enjoy the music
Respect for an artist, that prefers an happy crowd to one that probably thanks to all that sharing could make you famous and richer quicker. We need more Djs like him, that when the music stops make you feel that melanchony feeling of having attempted to one of the best parties of your life.
I'm an old fart now but grew up with the early rave scene prior to it going into clubs or places like the sanctuary (UK). I don't think our phones had cameras and everyone was there for the vibes and tunes only. Great days 🔉🎶
Yay no phones!!!!! I am a gen x and it makes me sad sometimes when EVERY person is taking video the WHOLE time someone is performing. Ppl still have their phones out but at least u r making ppl think. I think if you mention at strategic times that u r professionally documenting the gig and maybe just take a selfie or 2 would help
Well that went well with the No phones policy .. I actually Had no phones, When we went raving back in the late 80s and 90s and early 2000’s. a much better vibe.
very funny, just watched this out of a few episodes, when he opened the window, I thought, funny which city is this in Germany "Friedberg", then suddenly realized, wait a moment.) Freiburg, where I´m living in 😂. Thanks for your music man! Keep on doing what you do, with so much love and enthusiasm**
Liverpool is still a great night out now but a social media fest which isn't for me. Late 90s into 00s were the best clubbing days in Town. Respect James
Really commendable to getting people in the moment and off their phones! Love it. Plenty of people said it already; phone camera stickers! Keep up the good work!
Noticed some struggle to avoid phone from parties. Would like to share my thoughts. People have 3 types of expectations. 1. Functional - I want to remember the good times I had, need to record this. I want to remember this music for later. 2. Emotional - I feel good seeing these awesome thumbnails in my photos 3. Social - I want to look cool to my friends showing off I was there. So the key is to address all these, replace them by something. I suggest an online Playlist with the recording on your channel, and perhaps a giveaway, like a "who does this" sticker they can keep on the back of their phone for a while. I believe this will go a long way as it is rooted in the psychologe why people pull out their phone. Good luck !
I'm afraid that without a serious form of enforcement it's going to be difficult to get everyone to keep their phones in their pockets. The sense of entitlement and just brazen incivility that some people display is just bonkers. Inform the public clearly beforehand and during the show, and have security intervene when someone decides the hold up their phone anyway. The best thing would be for clubs to start doing this as part of their regular policies, like clubs in Berlin. This should not be a mission that James or any other dj should have to put energy into.
Don't fight the people with their phones out, it's everybody who does it, it might be ruining your career or make you less popular. It is not worth it, let the venues take care of it. For the people it is more important to make personal pictures at parties or vacations then you or the clubs and parties. There is nothing you can do about it.
My parents love going to see Bruno Mars whenever he's in town and one of their favorite stories they will tell is how Bruno will tell everyone always to put their phones down and live in the moment. They never do. People more interested in proving they are out having a good time than actually having the good time.
Of course everyone has their phones out. The club scene has long been commercialized and the djs are the attraction. They are front and center on a stage and have to put on a dance routine like a pop star. Dance clubs are now concert halls, where people go to see a musical act.
Best way to deal with phones? Develop app that everyone needs to download in order to get into the venue like a ticket app but with a twist, once scanned it shuts phone off for the duration of the gig and nothing can be done lol...
💯 agree this will be better. I had the privilege of spending my youth in an environment where smartphones barely existed. So glad about this on so many levels. Bring back the ability to get crazy without people filming you
I think the problem with trying to do no phone policy at hï is that people travel all over the world to come to the number 1 club in the world, and they wanna document it and show it off. So I don’t think it’s possible to do something like this at hi
This is exactly what I was thinking! It ties so heavily into celebrity culture, where the DJ like James Hype for example, is the star of the show. People travel very far and wide to come to Ibiza + you have to bear in mind it is €100 just to get into Hï and when you get in there is hardly any room to dance, so of course it breeds this behaviour, speaking from personal experience of going to Ibiza 4 times myself. Don't get me wrong, I like Hï Ibiza, especially for their amazing productions, however it is a very celebrity culture VIP focused club, and a no-phones policy which James Hype is trying to implement there is, in a sense, going against their customer base... Which a lot of people don't understand, except for a very few like us.
Pause at 8:21 or 8:41 or similar ... and you see plenty phones.. but i guess still better :) there some underground / bunker / techno clubs (eg in Berlin) already that do large stickers or tape on top of the camera's so that people can party as they used to + if you get caught without a sticker you get kicked out .. THIS IS GREAT for real partys!
@Lane8 / ThisNeverHappened I tell you some of the best shows I've been to have been no phones allowed. You experience the artists, the atmosphere, the music, the crowd so much more intensely. Do it!!!
Dear James Hype this wasn't in Friedbarg but in FREIBURG Germany. 2 total different cities and parts of Germany. You even wear one of their football jersey and can not see the difference???? As If I would say I'm in Liverpool while in Manchester dude. UPDATE: commented before you apologyzed...nice move. Apparently you rocked it...unfortunately could'nt attend neither that one nore the one 1 week later in Zürich Switzerland...I hope one day I can make it to one of your shows. Being DJ myself for over 25 years I give you a 10/10 in every single episode... You are #1 Live performing DJ ATM...no one is nearly like you... not even sure someone ever did that. I wished I had those skills. UPDATE 2: We clearly can see how the "no phone policiy" worked ;) My little Idea: Add sometimes some "No Phone" signs in the Visuals for the show. After a while word of mouth will do the job. GO ON MAKING THEM WET DUDE:
I agree with you James that mobile phones have changed the vibe of clubbing. However I don't think you'll ever get the same vibe that us oldies had during the early 90's, which is unfortunate as I know how much better the vibe was then.
That party in Germany was such an amazing view to DJ. Screw a festival, nothing as a DJ is bette than playing in the city streets with buildings hundreds of years old just beaming house music into them and all the people.
i understand the phone problem in ibiza especially because it's just so expensive to be there, however these people really need to learn to make one video and then put their phones away
It's about time there should be more events with no phones, to be honest. Live in the moment. Nothing worse than watching your favourite DJ or band and right in front of you there's someone with their mobile out all night long it's quite annoying. Well done James ya boss lad .
maybe put a couple of people on the exits at the end of the night handing out prizes to guests who can show their camera roll with no photos or videos taken? drink cards, free entry to the next one, USB stick with some exclusive content, etc
🤣Hi James, that's not Friedberg (that's where I live), that's Freiburg, just like it says on your shirt. Should you really ever play in Friedberg ... let me know and I'll do the opening act for you 😉
I used to go to shows and take hundreds of pics and videos. I stopped doing that and only took a few shots and videos. My show experience 10x'ed after doing that.
Look at footage of shambhala vs any other festival. Hardly any phones at all. "Hey Cindy this vibe is sick. You tik Tonkin too Michelle!?" I can't stand ppl looking through their phone instead of taking it all in 😂
i 100% agree with no phones. you are there in the moment. enjoy it. i think that the brand should record the night on 1 or 2 cams at most no extravagant setup as should be about the music. this way people at the event can be present rather than staring at phone screens for the most part.
Book Club Radio UA-cam channel hosts events that ensure its all about the music and the vibes. No phones allowed and they want you to face away from the DJ and to each other and just vibe out. Their mixes are pretty good imo, so would wonder how a James hype set would go.
If you want a true no phones experience you'll need to put stickers on top of the visitors cameras. Thats how almost every german techno club does it and it always provides a greater atmosphere.
There’s a great no phones night I’ve been to where the team on the door politely explain and ask you to get your phone out so they can put a little sticker over your camera. Different crowd maybe but it really works - everybody’s phones stay in their pockets. Maybe try that out
Just in general I hate going on my phone for big music events, it’s just a lot more fun to live in the moment and it just feels weird going on my phone.
People in the front with their phones in your face during a no phones party is insane to me lol. No respect
Addicts
fr….😓
No phones and everyone has a phone out 😂
Kick out the turds
lol
I'm not into your lane musically but I respect your insistence on never doing recorded sets, your technical ability and your general attitude. I totally agree with no phones. They're a blight on the scene and have been since they became the norm at parties.
Brilliant idea !! Bring back the atmosphere ! Phones have completely spoilt the vibe of a good Dance floor atmosphere!
Glad I was clubbing when there were no mobiles. Maybe just get on the mic and "put your f****** phones away or I stop, you know the rules tonight" 😂
YEP AGREED
Best times of my life when their was no phones
Me too as it was Nokia 95s and they were terrible in the dark, and that’s only if you wasn’t on the blackberry hype, which also had terrible cameras and I never was.

Great words. Completely agree!! Back in the days DJs were placed in a dark corner of the dance floor 😂
@@tobid9288 The clubs here in the early/mid 2000's would often get celebs in to try and fill the clubs instead of good DJ's... those were dark times.
Have stickers for the phone cameras, that sends a pretty direct signal that no filming is allowed :) Worked for our parties atleast! Not cheap if they are good quality, but worth it!
He did this in Chicago when I saw him in December. Worked pretty well

No mobile phones = welcome to the 90s club experience kids. Watch and learn.
you mean watch where dozens had their phones out? :p
Exactly what i was thinkin, we never had phones with cameras back in 98. Cameras if you wanted a still photo, no videos 🤣😂
@@Berto2Kyeah theres always been those ar$eholes around. Folk that don’t want to do as the artist or venue asks. Just look like a chump if u’ve been asked not to
No phones + Ecstasy = 90s + Rave culture
You just reminded me of my grandpa, he used to say: "we did the same kind of stupid things as you do today, but the only difference is that we had no internet back then for everyone to see how stupid we were" and it makes a lot of sense now.
I was in Zurich and James nailed it as always. It was a real pleasure to see him perform and enjoy what he's doing #whodoesthis
His set in Zurich was crazy good
Yeee - great set!
heyyy I was in Zurich too
Zurich’s set was crazy who does this 🔥🔥🔥
Wenner mal scho in Züri isch bini natürlich chrank, gopferdammi

smart tbf
Yes because a sticker will resolve this problem 🙄
@@kevinmurphy7121 they do if your seen with the sticker removed your thrown out and these like a sticker on a sticker to see if its been taken off

Where in Friiiburg and Zürich the guy in front with the black stereohype shirt and both shows were crazy. Was a very nice James Hype week 👏👏👏

Play a good track: people take out their phone to film it
Play a bad track: people take out their phone because they're bored
yo the rule worked out great, people seem to pick it up really well
2016: „Apple patents technology that could stop you from recording concerts“
why last video just got deleted?
Most clubs I go to here in Denmark puts stickers on your phone cameras. That is a very effective solution.
Make some neon coloured Hype Fam stickers to go over the cameras. Sure people can peel them off, but it definitely sends the message.

I'm so glad I was clubbing in the era when there was no phones everyone there just to dance for the love of the music 🙌🏻
Just in general I hate going on my phone for big music events, it’s just a lot more fun to live in the moment and it just feels weird going on my phone.
Good lad.
I have even more respect for you now.
Would love to see the set in full on UA-cam, please...
