I consider them....DJs. They're not musicians to me. They might be on some level, but what they do up on that stage in front of those huge crowds of white people is not musicianship. That's DJing. They're entertainers for sure.
I know some of them create their own music and sounds and samples and shit. That's being a musician. Just playing them for people from a laptop is not being a musician. That's being a DJ.
The Floozies, Sunsquabi, The Pimps of Joytime, and a whole bunch of others are playing instruments to loops they have created and turned into songs. Live instruments with funky electronic loops. It works.
