Are you playing digital tracks?

I play and mix all my tunes from Youtube.

Funnily enough I have heard DJs that do this.

I went to Los Alcazares in Spain a few months and a DJ at a local club was playing tracks off Youtube

We went up to him and wrote our requested tracks on a piece of paper.

All I'm saying is that for the whole period of time we were in Spain and went to the same club, all we could hear was...

"Dooo, dooo, dooo, dooo, dooo"

'Night' was easily the regular punters' favorite tune. They'd never heard and felt such energy!

I hate all this bollocks that oh you're some sort of less skilled DJ if you use any format that isn't vinyl.

Fuck that bollocks, I'll use what I want. As long as I use my ears for mixing, drop big tunes and mix flawlessly, I'm just as a good DJ as the one that uses pure vinyl.

I'm a Serato user at the moment, however, I've been using vinyl since I started mixing (in 2001/2002). I still buy vinyl and use it alongside Serato.

I will never get rid of me 1210's!

I'm even thinking of buying 1 CDJ purely for the sick spinbacks!

Init bro, if you chose to use vinyl cd or both its all good, like yourself i started to mix in 2001. Allways been a vinyl dj till recently i got pc dj scratch v2. So now i use that and vinyl. Allso want to get a cdj for the exact same reason as you. But i like using pcdj scratch as aposed to cds, because you don't have to use a single cd, and you mix the mp3s on your vinyl decks using blank vinyl. So i can now do a whole set without using a single vinyl or any cds Another benefit of pcdj scratch is that i can beat juggle every tune i have without having to have 2 copys of the tune. Is sereto like pcdj scratch where you use blank vinyl to mix mp3s from pc. Or do you mix your mp3s on your pc with a deck and mixer that plugs into the pc mabe?

Basically fella, Serato is essentially the same thing as what you're talking about.

Using blank vinyls to control MP3s etc.

I perform with a live laptop set. I also have a live band which performs dubstep as well as some jungle. We use laptop, guitar, bass, trumpet, keys and melodica. Sound qualities will certainly vary from medium to medium, but I just want to hear good music. A well crafted musical experience can come in all kinds of qualities. It has for thousands of years and has always had power.
