since i dont have cable at the new place (that anime channel was only at this short term rental). ive been relying on youtube and apple tv outside of the news channel. anyways came across this redbull tv series going on at the mo' about sample based music. redbull tv is on apple tv for those that got one, but its on youtube too. first one was awesome. second one the dudes a bit douchy by pretty cool. love the third one. and classic line from the fourth one abut anthrax guy making his pauls boutique. thats much respect only criticism. doesnt go deep enuff into it. you want more like a tutorial! always wanted to make it to the redbull sessions. pretty sure peanut butter wolf (or was it diplo or atrak) did one in slurry. but got on too late. anyways linking them up neow.

haha cupe straight in with his facebook details welcome chillz

this was the spot for the gandy type rollers who can get brand new decks. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Nt ... av-Search= as i said i was just browsing a catalog the MD had on his desk and then was shocked. and i assumed they just have it listed but not in stock, then checked online and it is in stock.

cant find a youtube. an oldie but a goodie. the outrio track from roni size/ reprazents in the m0de roni size/ reprazent - play the game http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/Play+The+Game/1OYMdI?src=5

someone gif that already

an absolute classic track swissdub - coke face years later. still just as good

jonny's homie la dooda is also a regular stop of mine while the cat is #bigtime now so a lot is promo to buy. a lot of his free shyte is still available. https://soundcloud.com/ladooda genre's are all over the shop (sorry plus i suck trying to pigeon hole stuff)

codes is always throwing up free booty as well as promoing his retail stuff https://soundcloud.com/codeshouse edit: everything from disco, dubstep, hip hop, trap, brooklyn bounce

there are two speakers (both left pairs which is random). one doesnt have controls

there is one US site still selling new ones but they cost heaps. its a hifi/ camera place. ive linked it before sorry cant remember off hand. i just remember my old MD used to get their monthly catalog.

a few other things come to mind as i ponder your comments. so what about people who used labels and stickers on the vinyl to hotcue; or wrote the bpm on the record sleeve as a means of bpm counting; or introduced loopers and samplers into their turntable setup; or relied on premade battle/ sample records. see even amongst those that used vinyl they had evolved from what was seen in garage club or the streets of new york pre the 80's well before the CD revolution. i think i mentioned it before about how ztrip incorporates the roland sampler into his mixing. does that make him an Electronic DJ. he definitely wasnt the first. and not only hip hop. carl cox also uses a looper in his mixing. so where do they sit in the spectrum...

just a couple more things. while i have gone to see turntablists (another group of people who wanted to be distinguished...), i still dont understand the "go to see a dj" thing. but then im an old fogie. i would go to a club when a particular dj is on cuz i know i could dance to their tracks (kate monroe ftw) but i wouldnt be there to see her per se, i was there to club and get my boogie on. and i must admit when i went to see scratch perverts and craze i danced my azz off anywho becasue they did sets not routines. i guess it is about perception. to me the DJ is there to provide you with the music for the night, to ensure you keep your groove, and the good ones can tkae you on the journey. i dont have any other expectations. aside from that... it is exactly what you said above though. a guitarist is a guitarist, be it a rhythm guitarist or a lead guitarist or a classical guitarist. that just defines what music and how they play. a twelve string playing guitarist versus a flat bed playing guitarist would not go and differentiate themselves. and finally i think the idea that crate digging is dead due to mp3's is a fallacy. i spend just as much effort digging for my digital music. just because there are more tools doesnt mean music is just handed to me. for every 10 tracks that i buy i could listen to a 100. there is just as much art to crate digging at beatport/ juno/ whereever you shop; which is why a common question on all dj sites where do you buy your music and how do you choose. we all have our methods. yes there are those that just look at aria or itunes or beatport dance top 10. but that was no different from the geezers that walked in and bought the brashs/ hmv/ virgin top 10 and then would smash thru that during their set. i.e. after all that rant. the downfalls of today i think have always existed. i will admit, it has made djing more accessible. and for those that survived the great vinyl vs cd war would know, we already saw the writing on the wall. but is being more accessible really that bad....... must the scene always remain the secretive unreachable secret handshake members only club. fark that. music for everybody!

i dont think there is a need to differentiate as "DJ" means such a wide variety of things. and "whose manual dexterity dictates what live remixing ability they have" is too specific. dont forget DJ is an acronym for disc josckey, a name given for someone who "jockeyed" through music. no remixing needed. so someone jockeying through digital files is no more or less a dj in my opinion. too much elitism in the scene already, no need to try and put even more definitions.

im using my dvs less and less. and if i could get that sampler/ looper i was looking for i may give it up for the most part. on the other hand definitely music is more accessible to you. unless you a baller gandy style. i started vinyl only (before i had my own gear), and mixing a lot of 128 house and disco. then when i got my own gear got traktor scratch because i had bucket loads of cd's and digital music already on hand. also ive seen many vinyl only sets of varying genres. some of which like the dude in osaka who did an entire set of jamaican 45's, has made me start to use vinyl only. except i suck at it, because i still cant mix hip hop, pop, or non four on the floor type music. do whatever you want that you can afford. and reality is you can change.
