Hey guys,

Just thought I'd throw up a quick intro. 22 years old..I live in the in the Riverina, NSW. I've been playing bass for about 8.5 years and guitar on and off jamming in my bedroom for a few years. Also played in a couple of different metal bands over the years. I've recently taken an interest in DJing and the music that goes with it. I'm a flat out newbie when it comes to what genre/s I like but the music I have been listening to is Deadmau5, Daft Punk, Avicii, David Guetta and Swedish House Mafia to name a few... House seems like a good guess? I'm not really sure.

I love all the music on this video. So, even if that gives you a better idea of what I'm into.

I'm going overseas soon but when I return I plan to save up and buy some basic equipment and get practicing. I'm looking at 2x CDJ350's and 1x DJM350 as this seems to be a common starting platform for new guys.

I'd say if you're after some ideas on music and shit, chuck a thread in beginners or DJHQ

keep this just for your intro

@Cupe - No worries, I'll post something up and see what I can find out.

@Jaz - Well, I better have a bit of a think about what I will be needing/using them for, not just practicing in my bedroom.
