Finally!!! (it's a dj thing)

The only reason I've gone for this set up is that it's very much hands on. I used to say exactly the same about moving on to CDs until they brought out the denon with the belt drive platter so I could still scratch like on vinyl. Then I found my collection expanded immensely plus I was able to play my own tunes and bootlegs out. Then after a while I got fed up with the sound quality difference when laying a set off of cd and vinyl as I was wasting time that I could have been spending doing other stuff with the time I was using up altering the gain, bass, treble every time I put a new vinyl on! Plus sometimes I'll get through 20 odd tracks in half an hour which was leaving my record box in a right old state lol!

One of the things I like most about DJing is hunting down obscure records that no one else has and seeing a dance floor go mental to them. I wouldn't get anywhere near the same buzz out of an MP3 and most of the stuff that I play is not available digitally. The nights that I run now get really positive feedback from punters for being 100% vinyl and it has become a bit of an angle to sell the nights on.

Yep I completely agree with that - I've had more than the odd booking at nights with the same policy. I still hunt for gaps in my old collection but that's where it stops for me - I don't see the point in filling my house up with new records when I can fill up my hard drive instead and keep mrs r happy! ;)
 
duuuude! the guy doing your website, who is he? it's awful! no offense.. hope you haven't paid for it and it's a friend job or something.
 
I toyed with the idea of starting to learn a few months ago but couldn't really afford it - wanted to go straight into vinyl. The main thing that ibterested me was mixing obscure hip hop but it's incredibly expensive to get hold of in the UK. I might be off to the US next summer so may try and bring back some pressies with me :)

I did think ska might offend his cheese and wine friends ;)

Not bad mate, would need a very long time and a few beers to go into my life since I was last here...but I'm hoping to attend a match before Xmas if I don't get fired by then!! (long story) I did arrange to meet bb in the irish after the notlob match last year but couldn't see him and thought he'd be easy to spot lol

So am I talking to a pirate or a big gay bear?! Or noneoftheabove?
