i'm usually cueing with my left ear and recently i realized that its more clear using my rite ear for cueing.. then i want to change to rely with my rite ear for cueing because it more clear but i feel its more comfortable using a left ear for cueing for many reason...soon i realize that my left ear is little deaf! then its made me remember that when i was child my friends like to make a suprise by shouting next to my ears.. it makes me want to rip all their penis so they can feel how DJ's feel if their ears are flawed!!! any advices to solve this problem!! thanks for hearing my sadness

yeah, as with eyes, once the damage is done there is little anybody can do except prevent it from getting worse. :/

if it is a result of your family, they should have known better

dude, my one friend is almost completely deaf in his left ear... and he can DJ w/ no problems.... I still can't figure it out... but he does it and he's just as good as me or anyone else I know....

The only thing I've noticed is that he'll have the headphones turned ALL the way up and mix w/ it partially off his good ear...So I guess he's listening to both in his one ear...

Weird...

so DJs are born to deaf... all the money we're collecting from DJing will entirely used for ear surgery..

how do you know that this hasnt happened from DJing? would seem obvious because only the ear ure cueing with isnt 100% any more??

Hey mate,
Kinda doubt your childhood friends are resposible for hearing damage....but that doesnt matter. I guess theres no way around it though, but if your able to cue and beatmatch using left ear (even tough the hearing is worse on it), then whats the problem? I would be more worried about loosing my hearing tempoarly (as its the most valued posession for a Dj)..


ps. See you're from jakarta..I live there too . You going to Jakarta Movement next week?? Dont wanna miss Jonathan Lisle

Mate..you need to check out CO2 @ Embassy with Dj RiRi. They play trance up until 8/9am specially for the people rolling on E . But I have to agree with you..there are way too many prog & tribal house Djs in Jakarta.


..But dont worry, when I get back next summer from uni I'm gonna introduce Jakarta to trippy Epic & israeli PsyTrance...they gonna be blown away
