[eggssell]

ive mentioned shortee a few times here. great dj, as much a legend in the turntablist world as she is a dj & producer.

anyways nice interview from djtt.

this line is so much like something i may have posted (then again it may have been ingrained in my mind from her shortee 101 video)

In my personal opinion, I feel a DJ is a performer that mixes and blends music live, by hand, adapting to the crowd’s needs while taking them on a musical journey from point A to point B.

anyways check check, check it out.

what a good read

this was my favourite quote

With respect to DJing specifically as a form of performance, if you want to get technical, D.J. stands for Disc Jockey who is traditionally someone who rocks vinyl records. Many vinyl purists feel that those are the true tools of the craft. But vinyl and turntables wouldn’t even exist if not for what came before them, so really they are just an integral part in the timeline of the craft’s evolution.

she knows what she is talking about! good to see popular DJ's who actually know history and depth of their chosen art
