rite, thursdays 8-10pm, starting week of 20th october, me and my housemate and regular b2b partner on air on our student station
http://www.burstradio.org.uk/
give it a listen if you get a chance, mainly based in dubstep and grime emphasis on uk underground and bristol scenes, so plenty of garage and dnb,130, nu grime, juke etc too (hence the name, not mad about the tune but gives a broad scope, especially to get into non electronic genres after a while)
promise big tunes, mcs, and got some sick guests from bristol lined up to do interviews and guest mixes too, more info on that when confirmed
got an issue though, no decks of any kind, so could anyone suggest a good laptop djing program, easiest thing possible please
and of course, any tunes people are making of any genre, hit me up, heard a lot of big tings recently like sinestepper's dishwasher and finji's jungle that i'd love to play

I think piracy's justified if you've already paid for the tunes tbh.

Traktor works well for laptop DJ'ing.
Easy to set up, might take some prep getting your tunes 'gridded' so they sync up but it generally does a pretty good job of automatically placing the grid.
