  1. got to be lighter though as platter would be smaller.
  2. Milton's Son i like total random ones like that. or what about Hamm? or Maddison of the ones you have i like Decoy.
  3. nice. i like shortee. years ago before i even had my kit i bought one of her instructional dvd's. and since i have also bought her dance productions (there is one awesome funk house track she does w her hubby faust. the name of it doesnt come to mind). but yeh as a turntablist or straight mixing she's a cool cat
  4. a very good article at djtechtools on putting some thought into a mix OG article has videos and pic http://www.djtechtools.com/2013/07/10/s ... -a-dj-mix/ but body of text is below
  5. oh you talking mobile devices. sorry not down with the apploe lingo (missed you said ios as opposed to just os). anyways cool.
  6. vlc media player is the shiz. Thats all i use on windows too. Windows media olayer and itunes (as aplayer) is balls
  7. on the other hand, it is a farking awesome album adrian younge is the shiz. i even went and bought his recent delfonics collab
  8. dont order from soul temple and sorry for anyone that did. im usually pretty good at online ordering. but seeing as soul temple records is owned by rza, and bob perry is involved with the wu i thought it was all legit. well technically it is legit, but their online distribution is appalling. so badd people have setup boycott soul temple records facebook pages. these dumbasses put together vinyl packs with tshirts, caps, comics, stickers, signed shit etc etc for pre-order. you know to capture the wu-massive; but they dont ship shit for months and months. rumour has it they use the pre-order cash to fund basic business shit like hard copy cd's for retail. and then i guess when they break even they go about filling in the pre-orders with vinyl and merch. ive emailed old mr perry for one last chance before i lodge a paypal complaint
  9. unless your room is a warehouse you may not need PA speakers for many years i just used a ten yr old technics hifi system eventually i bought PA speakers as i started doing a few parties at halls. but yeh djing at home for myself or when mates are over they are a bit of an overkill. and being club standard probably isnt necessary. as their focus is being loud in a particular space, most likely crowded my two cents anywho
  10. most of us here don't take notice becasue in general we are a pod of dj's, producers, and bedroom bangers there are a few promoters (ktash, scottie from laundry..) and a few sound engineers/ event sound mixers (who may eventually hop in here to help you out) but yeh in general would not have a lot to do with a venues speaker arrangement are you looking to go mobile or set up club nights?

    TOTD?

    such a sweet track. that bassline Oh wait that was an edit. Ill try to find an OG Edit:maybe this one
  16. okay its been a minit. And what a cracker my phone has delivered. perfect for a friday slop rock - dancing in moscow (original mix) awesome track. as is standard from tomy and his holmie. nice swing sound. go buy it! You can preview on juno or beatport http://www.junodownload.com/products/da ... 752605-02/ http://www.beatport.com/track/dancing-i ... ix/1867449 i was hoping to find a soundcloud link on slop rocks sound cloud. But the first thing on google was this. This is the bombs away mix though which i know was popular on here. i still prefer the OG
  17. Well it's electronic pioneers like Klaus Schulze and Jean Michelle Jarre who probably have claim to the early trance roots in the 70's and 80's. From there it spawned into the stuff that Sven Vath, Paul Van Dyk etc started putting out in the early-mid 90's. agree with electronic music, which the dance music pioneers state are their influences. but dance music came from america in the eighties. it boomed and became pop in the UK. but even then it was chicago house tracks initially, before the locals jumped on. trance did come later in the 90's (as mentioned above) from the likes of van dyk. who state early electronic music as influences. but i think its still hard to dispute that dance music began in the US.... i mean even early hip hop producers drew their influences from the early electronic music of the 70's
  18. are you serious?? chicago house. then detroit techno okay trance came out in germany 10 years later, which drew from the same influences of "electronic" music. id be quite surprised if the some of the initial people in trance had not been fans of the dance scene of the 80's.
  19. Damn yankee doodles running around ruining everying! In all seriousness though I get a kick out of claims that big names hire people because they don't have time to write their own stuff. Lyke omg I am guetta and i play a set every night and only have 20 OTHER FUCKING HOURS OUT OF THE DAY to sit on my ass and write music FOR MONEY. no pity. yeh its not like the americans created house music! which would spawn the dance genre. oh wait yes they did.... honestly if people hate whats going on in the pop world so much stop listening or caring about it. i dont particularly like christian rock, so i sure as hell dont go and listen to it so i can then bitch about it and laugh at all their fans

    TOTD?

    its an oldie but it came on while i was driving yest. Gonna pump it now going into frieday night http://soundcloud.com/sweetish/sweetish-monster-jam
  21. yes rca back into your computer. but dependent on your on-board sound card this may not be of quality. there are good cheap external soundcards around (as well as good not so cheap). secondly i dont know about serato intro, but if it doesn't just use audacity. it is free
  22. im not the most technical, but here is what i do know: passive: requires an amplifier asctive: does not require an amplifier, and also requires power PA: is public announcement system. i think in most cases these are considered of not high sound quality to monitors. i.e. the sounds are usually muddied. their purpose is to get sound out to a large area monitor: speakers used for production to reference the track, and so their grade is based on how truly they can represent the sound. people also use these at home to dj with however monitor in dj speak is also what you use to "monitor" the mix. you can actually use any speaker for this. i have used a guitar amp; a ghetto blaster; a hifi system; or just by putting one of the PA speakers behind me
  23. i dont 100% agree with that either.so you are saying if a person has a particular sound/ or in a particular genre they have to stick to that for the rest of their lives? how about artists make what they want to make and people like what they want to like. if an older artist starts to digg a sound of a newer cat. and then decides to explore that sound, why does it make it bad? why must they be a band wagoner? people who genuinely like music don't just stop. i love new music! listen to the beatles three chord harmonic ditties (which were good) to their over layered over effected chants (still very good) and you can see an artist can grow and change. in fact must grow and change. so if some electro dude comes out with a thrash metal album in ten years time when it is all the rave. whether it is good or not should not have been determined by what made him popular
