nice post dennis.

+rep

This was one of the first items I purchased when I was learning. Its very informative. However it is starting to show its age when it describes the CDJ1000 MK1 as new technology.

The fundamentals are covered in good detail though and it goes on to explain tips for the industry and promoting yourself.

[Cupe]

are they gonna do a more updated one any day?

[Trip]

I think the majority of DJ tuition is now presented online via youtube and various subscription based services. I think the fundamentals found in the original DJ books are still valid today, however they arent up to date with today's technology.

A new one would be ideal. But its also a daunting task when you think about the crazy amount of options available to today's up n coming DJ. It'd be a big ass book!

[DjDennis]

I think that if mr Trip knows so much he can add his thing and you can DELETE all that I have added

have a nice day

pretty spot on man, i wish we could make every one do time on vinyl first but those days are gone, i seen an interview of some local djs saying that there first cdjs didn't have a bpm counter so they had to buy a bpm tap counter...? i mean how about just use your ears like every one else had to with vinyl for so long haha.

Tommy have or do you know how long it takes to write a book like that ?

have you at all any idea how fast things are created ?

then you should write one and see what your up against

if the book is that OLD as some say then i'll delete it and wont bother posting this shit then!!

have a nice day

calm down bro. I've read the book so I thought i'd offer a bit of info on it.

I'm happy to write a tutorial on something.

even if it is just to get my rep back in the +ve

[DjDennis]

but anything I add is too old - so thats why I dont give a shit

you can do it all if your that so hot!!

have a nioce day

[djarmed]

i think this book will never get old because the fundamentals of dj'ing will/should never change...................................well not for a long time anyway.

[Cupe]

the only thing someone said that was old in this book was the current hardware available at the time of its publishing. fuck

[tubby]

the hardware side is a very small part. Never read the book but did refer a lot to his website when I started, was very useful

ok dennis we need to have a talk.

you need to STOP giving a shit what people think. its 1 single person, if you havnt realised, everyone else has been saying possitive things about your post. i mean shit, your even in the positive rep now!

and trip only pointed out 1 thing about the book about a peice of hardware.

STOP letting things get to you, because your posts ARE usefull, i DONT want you to stop posting, i DONT want you to delete your post because the info is HELPING ME.

letting small things get to you is stoping you from sharing information that could help someone make a career out of djing.
