why care what medium a DJ uses?

as long as the music is good and the party is fun, i couldn't care less

i kind of agree with u on the laptop part but most djs use vinyl and cds. I see lots of artists use cds and vinyls. The skill factor is still there.

True, good point added but not considered by myself...think about it...i know that the music will sound amazingly great but the could play a loop playlist off their PC's and leave the stage go have a couple of drinks or even a power nap and return in an hour... soon itll be like that...im just sayin im sick of seeing djs click through that garbage instead of turning around using their head and trying to find a vinyl behind them ....

like this hasn't been beaten to death 3000 times. there is far more creative advantage with software... bottomline.

and i guess here comes a logical step you might of missed.

good artists want to be creative as possible.


thread is closed

k....1) Your Gay 2) Thread Is still open cuz thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard wanna be creative...shut off thats a lame excuse for djs who are afraid to fuck up....and 3)if your gunna make a comment like that change your display pics of the stick man on the Ones-and-Twos cuz that doesnt help your statement...idiot get off this thread

lol. I agree with you to a point, but times are changing and technology is taking over the decks. Although, I would definately rather have Sasha owning people with Ableton than standing there with 2 vinyls.

Brizzo my friend thats a bold statement lol but i guess your right in terms of djs that cant spin ...i mean didnt we hear enough stories about Sasha LOL LMAO! ahhhhhhhh hes thanking God for Ableton

Great, another elitist who's afraid of technology. Operating a stupid turntable doesn't give you a special talent. It just means you can operate an f-ing turntable. If that's all DJing is about to you, then there's no skill involved EITHER WAY. But no - it's about alot more than that. They could mix with pineapples for all I care.

Wow, that... wow that was very touching yes....hmmm did your parents hit you when you were a wee lad ...no? well tell them to now for me...pineapples? dumb dumb a simple i disagree with you would have worked there Aquaman

if someone doesn't use vinyls, they're not a Disc Jockey. i'm not sure what to call someone that exclusively uses a laptop and CDs. CDJ? FJ (File Jockey)? there is a difference in the entire spectacle and the sound.

that's not to say that the experience is bad tho. but i wouldn't shell out cash again to go to a show to have some guy mix on a laptop. i recently saw G&D do this and it fucken blew.

When you read a document, does it matter to you if it was prepared on a word-processor or a type-writer?
