LOL. Go check record sales and get back to me on that bro

lol...Not to be rude or disrespectful but have you ever been out of the state of Oregon?? Ever since 90/91 trance has been hitting clubs all over Europe, the Orients, Central and South America, and in the United States, too (cough, cough, San Fran, Houston, New York, cough, cough Phoenix, Dallas cough, cough)! And I don't know what trance that you have been listening to but most trance songs don't have break downs that last two minutes. At least not all the good ones. But hell, if you can find many in my mixes, let me know. Maybe a minute...Maybe...Personally, I don't see the big deal about break downs. It actually gives people a little time to rest. Unless, you're the ttpe that likes dancing none stop, for 5 hours strait. And trance is perfect in the club! Especially if the club is decked out with laser cannons. "Great trance" and laser cannons make the club! And trance is perfect with lasers cannons! Have you've been to a real club that plays trance? I mean a real one. My guess is that you haven't. Just because a song breaks down, that doesn't mean you have to stop dancing. Just go with the flow, man... It's all about the music and atmosphere of the club. I personally think electro house is too calm and laid back for a great club experience but maybe that's just me. I would rather go through "two minutes of calm", for every trance song, than to go through a whole night of nothing but calm electro house.... lol...what separates DJs, who can use their ears to beat match, from the new DJs who can't is that the ol' school can use both the software BUT they don't need it. The new DJs HAVE TO use the software. That's why most of us look down on your type. Software?? You don't even have to practice much to learn how to use it. Just the fuckin' manual.... I think if you ask most fans, most will respect the DJ who can beat match and blend on their on over those who can't.

It's posts like this that make people hate trance. The fact that people sit there with their hands in the air and act like the dj is some devine God allowing them to dance to their amazing creation And that's coming from someone who spins trance myself! I hate what people see it as. And just lool at electro house being calm; it's the new age rap/hip hop bro; which is exactly why it has become so popular. It's simple as fuck 8 bar party music. Because it's so simple and repetitive it allows for very quick mixes which keep the energy flow going throughout the whole night. Fucking noob.

I don't mind software as long as it doesn't do the work for you. If you wanna impress me, do all that fancy stuff AND beat match and blend, too. The art of DJing is entertaining the crowd. Not fooling them into thinking that you are something...that your're really not. Anybody can loop songs over other songs if you don't have to worry about beat matching and blending. In the end, it comes down to the music you get, the flow that you play them, and how good "you really" can mix it. Seriously, what would you think if you saw some DJ just lay down a 1 hour pre mixed CD, in a CD turn table, pushed play, and waved to the crowd while he or she was messing around with the effects button??? I know what you're thinking..."It's not the same thing." I think it is... Dude, have you seen how easy it is to use programs like ableton or serato?? It's pretty damn easy. In fact, it really takes no skill, what so ever...You might as well loop prebeat matched songs into a premixed CD set, as far as I see it...

You have a huge fundamental misunderstanding of what software does and doesn't do. Essentially the only thing it changes is the output source of the music. You still have to cue and drop your tracks in phrase; you still have to mix your tracks in, and you still have to mix your tracks out. Your idea of what software is = retarded and yes; cheating. However; aside from Tiesto, dj's don't usually do that kind of shit or get away with it.

You're definitely more of an idiot than the op

Just read this topic.

I can't belive you can compare Mixing with cd's or vinyl to doing a mix with computers.

To me Djing and mixing is an art which takes years to learn!

so to say you can mix after 2 and a half weeks is a joke.

Amazing that the thread starter vanished again. Sorry man but ive never known a "resident" DJ that dosent want to state where hes playing at to get people to see him play? Ive never been to Miami but id be highly inclined to say that if your playing one of the premier establishments in Miami the DJ booth is a bit of a maze to get to and not very easy for people to get to you. Also it shows upon you that your not willing to spread your music that you DJ to an audiance (being this website). Again what self proclaimed "digital DJ" or DJ for that fact does a mix and says "none of you get to hear it but ive done it"... do you see how silly that sounds?

Seriously you can get on a car forum and talk about the 900hp Skyline you have and claim "no im not posting pics of the car. I know I have it and all you haters are just jealous that my car is the shit and you dont have one". Same concept is applying here.

If you are playing a major club in Miami with a residence with the short amount of time youve been at it then congrats. You definitly know how to sell yourself well to people. But 95% of people involved in the community will turn against you when you brag about how it took them years to get where they are and you boast like you have here. Be ready to not like the results you get.

lol I really hope you guys arent actually buying this shit....Hes obviously just fucking around, he wont say what club or post a mix....he knows nothing about anything....and the reason for being able to beatmatch automatically is the fact the it will open doors for other possibilities....effects breakdowns....TIME......

lol bye

The first thing I have to say about this troll is...


Three things to know about the art of djing from my personal experience.

One...you beat match manually because that is industry standard. Period. You will recieve much more respect if you can learn to beat match on tables.

Two...I have been djing for two years now. I have learned so much not only from teaching myself, but from learning from those who have been in the industry for sometime. Taking their advice, using some of their suggestions. Have an open mind and learn the basics. Knowledge is power. Aqcuire as much as possible.

Three...PLAY TO THE CROWD. What if your premixed cd you did that you are playing ends up clearing a room. What are you going to do? You watch the crowd just incase you need to change it up a little bit. Thats why you play live at a club, not some premixed cd. Its like throwing sand into a delicate machine and hoping nothing goes wrong.

Good luck with the residency.

LOLOL at point one. Not that there is anything wrong with beatmatching manually but doing something because it is industry standard in ANY industry is major LOL.

Kinda like you responding to an obvious troll even though you know he is a troll
