Its more about people thinking they know what they are talking about when they dont. Been listening to music for a couple of years or playing on Ableton and now think they can school everyone.
I am out of this topic, its a pile of shit.
Carry on spinning back your records if it makes you happy. Just remember its 2009 and not everyone in the crowd use to go to Dub sound clashes in the 90s.
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

THE authority on spinbacks
I am having a bad day at work. Sorry
I am not a fan of spinbacks and they are not done by any decent DJs that I know of. I only ever do it if I am pissed and things are going terribly wrong.
Personally I would rather see tight mixing and no spinbacks or rewinds for that matter.
I am prob older than you btw.
/peace

I think its bare jokes cause the last few days Serox went from a pretty nice poster to a proper horrible one, personal beef effect forum posts it seems.

I didn't read all of the pages, cause it's probably pointless...BUT
I'll do spinbacks and it's not to hide a bad mix. I really only play old school jungle and generally only play all vinyl unless I have some new tunes I want to test before getting dubs cut. I'll do spinbacks when I have a match for a really long time and get bored of the tune I'm mixing out of...I'll spinback the tune I'm mixing out of the bar (or several bars) before the drop of the next tune. That's the only way to properly do spinbacks IMO and I'm not doing a rewind and dropping the tune again (that's something completely different), but more of an effect/transition into the drop of the next tune, which has already been matched and playing for a minute or two. Pretty standard technique really and to bash it is pointless. It's like saying DJs shouldn't scratch.
Yeah there are people who are lazy and can't mix who will just spinback a tune and drop the next, but that's not what I'm talking about. That's the equivalent of just fading a track out and fading the next in. If you want to be a DJ, you got to start somewhere though. Doing proper spinbacks actually requires good beat matching skill and knowledge of your records. Like any technique it can be overused. I'll do maybe one or two spinbacks during a whole set if any at all. If you're doing them every mix it would be annoying, but they definitely have their place with mixing most electronic genres really.
