Well I guess I should answer, because it's my house. I have a normal DJ table, which sits at 103cm so that is allright for normal use.But it is too small to fit both the CDJ's and the turntables, so we diverted to my dinner table for this evening. And that's okay for one evening but I wouldn't want it to be like this for a permanent setup.

jonmitz posted:I want CDJ-400s... Why so? Don't expect much of the MIDI setup, it doesn't work properly. For instance in midi-mode there are just 128 steps on the entire pitch fader. That is a resolution of 0.125%, from the company that sells its CDJ's by promoting the 0.02% pitch resolution. It's a bitch to get both soundcards to work together, the jogwheels feel like they have been bought of Fisherprice and anything larger than a 4gb memorystick will take ages to load. Bite your teeth, save some more and buy 800's, it will be the best thing you'll ever do. Trust me.

What is all this fighting about how to become a DJ about. If you don't love the music, don't get behind the decks. Because there are cheaper and faster ways to get laid. If you have to go on the interwebs to find a style you like so you can start dj'ing that style, why start dj'ing it at all? There is something wrong there... I started DJ'ing after I went to all these parties were they played techno and minimal. I totally fell in love with this music, it almost literaly took over my life. From the few names and tracks I began building my own collection, going to recordshops (both on and offline) getting to known more and more artists, more labels, talking to fellow DJ's and swapping tracks, going up to the dj-booth and ask the name of a track you really dig. With blood sweat and tears, I created a broad basic collection, from where I'm now exploring the more narrow sub-genre's, slowly but steadily creating my own sound. And that is to me what DJ'ing is about. Internet can't teach you what you like, you'll have to find out for yourself, because a dj is only as good as his collection is. You could get the hang of the technical part of dj'ing within a year, but the musical side takes years to master. It's a journey trough connecting genre's and different sounds, don't cut it short, because a stupid blog tells you what everybody else likes.

No, but good DJ'ing is taking you audience further and deeper into the music then what they already know without making them "uncomfortable". Unless it's your game to stick to classics and top-40 songs, you'll have to dig deeper to create your musical signature as a DJ. Playing hit records may get you gigs on the short term, but it will not satisfy you in the long run. It will get you stuck in lovely bars, and you'll end up as a unrespected human jukebox, fighting of the drunk fratboys begging you to play "you know that song, where eh yeah lala" and girls trying to order beers at the DJ booth.

The only way to get the to truly new records nowadays, is getting access to a good promo pool. Promo's are distributed between the high profile artists months before their public release, leaving us to sort out the crap. It isn't impossilble however, now and then I get to tracks that find their way into the charts a couple of weeks later. Sadly the only way to do this is sitting down and listen your way through the 1000's of new releases

Long time since I've posted a mix on SA... Inspired by the blog posts of Jeff Mills and the work of a local DJ called Stroef, I've been dreaming to do some sort of conceptual mixtape. quote:On June 28, 2010, Voyager 2 completed 12,000 days of continuous operations since its launch on August 20, 1977. For nearly 33 years, the venerable spacecraft has been returning unprecedented data about the giant outer planets, the properties of the solar wind between and beyond the planets and the interaction of the solar wind with interstellar winds in the heliosheath. Having traveled more than 21 billion kilometers on its winding path through the planets toward interstellar space, the spacecraft is now nearly 14 billion kilometers from the sun. Traveling at the speed of light, a signal from the ground takes about 12.8 hours to reach the spacecraft. The result is a four piece mixtape, starting of with a sort of soundscape (Leaving Earth) and then gradually taking off towards various forms of techno. The second part (Deep Space) is spacy dubbish techno with a lot of housey sounds, the third part (The Nebula) consists mostly of driving nu style techno and the final part (Planetary Descent) is made of deeper and harder techno. Total time of this voyage: almost 3.5hrs. No soundcloud this time, because it's too long for my account Soundscape Part 2,3 & 4 Tracklist: Num // Artist // Title Part 0: 1 Michael Andrews - The Tangent Universe 2 Plastikman - Converge 3 Laurent Garnier - The Warning 4 Tool - Mantra 5 Biosphere & Deathprod - Transparenza 6 Speedy J – Bootes - Original Mix 7 Speedy J - Tuning In Part 1: 8 Speedy J - Red Shift - Original Mix 9 Peter Van Hoesen - Liss 01 - Original version 10 Marcel Dettmann - Getaway - Original Mix 11 Invite - Lotta - Original Mix 12 Darko Esser - Onmacht - Original Mix 13 Donato Dozzy &Peter Van Hoesen - Talis - Original Mix 14 Aubrey - Dark - Mike Parker Remix 15 Minilogue - Ghost - Original Mix 16 Kevin Gorman - Shakey Stripped - Original Mix 17 Appleblim & Peverelist - Over Here - Brendon Moeller Remix 18 Kenny Larkin - Glob - Ben Klock Remix 1 19 Darko Esser- Replica - Original Mix 20 Delta Funktionen - Silhouette - Marcel Dettmann Remix Part 2: 21 Gowentgone- Ibex - Marcel Fengler Remix 22 Chris Liebing And Tommy Four Seven - Bauhaus - Mallet Mix 23 Delta Funktionen - Nebula - Original Mix 24 Adam Beyer & Pär Grindvik - Seq 2 – Turn - Original Mix 25 Steve Rachmad – Horny - Original Mix 26 Tiger Stripes – Eden - Original Mix 27 Jeroen Liebregts - Hunter / Grazer - Planetary Assault Systems Remix 28 Alan Fitzpatrick - Paranoize - Original Mix 29 Dustin Zahn - Stanger (To Stability) - Original Mix 30 James Ruskin- Solution - Original Mix 31 Terence Fixmer - Drastik - Planetary Assault Systems Remix 32 Angstrom & Aalberg - Wonderdog - Original Mix 33 Speedy J - Armstrong - Original Mix 34 Function vs Jerome Sydenham - Two Ninety One - Chris Liebing Edit Part 3: 35 James Ruskin – Fallen - Original Mix 36 Gunjack - Talk Is Cheap - Original Mix 37 Counterpart - Project 2302 - Original Mix 38 Henrik B – DC22.5 Untitled 1 - Original Mix 39 Exium - The Omega Man - Radial Remix 40 Jeroen Search - Expose - Original Mix 41 Glen Wilson - The Return - Original Mix 42 Bas Mooy & Vincent De Witt - Chapter 1 - Original Mix 43 Baffa - La Kaya - Original Mix 44 Carlos Rios & Oliver Kucera - Viespeuk - Original Mix 45 Speedy J- Tannga - Original Mix 46 Paul Boex - Hate is Love - Oscar Mulero Remix 47 Exium- Duplex - Original Mix 48 Miller - Keane - Depth Charge - Original Mix 49 Teste- The Wipe - Original Mix 50 Jeff Mills -The Light That Burns Brightest Let me know what you think.

Well, as an European I can clearly see a difference between the American way and the European way of DJ'ing. From a distance it seems that DJ'ing in the US seems to be focussed on bars, with high competition to get in and good money to be made, with a residency as a key goal. Hence a focus on crowdpleasing and keeping the liquor flowing. What strikes as a me European is that in America, as a result of this (?), you have a whole different way of interpreting music. First of all the sets that are posted here are much more eclectic than they are on my side of the ocean. If you would go from techhouse to dubstep to drum 'n bass in a one hour set, people over here would start throwing bricks at your head. Seriously, I'm not kidding. And secondly it seems that the crowd comes before the music, while over here clubs and bars mostly stick to a specific genre (per night) and the crowds adapts to that. So here in the Netherlands it's almost the exact opposite to the situation in the US. Getting gigs at bars is about the easiest thing you can imagine, because in the end everyone here want to be booked as a 'club' DJ. We have more solitary events that are thrown by a number of crews. So you don't have much residencies anymore, you get booked for one night at a time, doing what you do best, so unless you host your own night, you don't have regular gigs. These nights have a very specific musical focus (mainly deephouse/techhouse/techno) a, thus being on top of your game with cutting edge tracks is much more appreciated as the people who come out to these types of events really want to be part of an avant garde. But then again everyone wants to be that groundbreaking DJ, so competition is fierce in its own way. Sjoewe fucked around with this message at 10:37 on Mar 25, 2011 |

Socket Ryanist posted:Sjoewe, in europe do clubs usually do their own bookings or are they usually rented out by independent promoters? Here both are common, although independent promoters usually throw the better nights because they tend to book better talent. Until a couple of years ago it used to be clubs doing their own bookings, but that has been on a down slope ever since the recent economic recession. Most clubs in (my country) nowadays work with independent promoters, as this model guarantees a minimum income for the club owners and there are only a few clubs left that get by doing their own bookings because they have developed their own unique sound, like Berghain in Berlin, or Fabric in London. So funny enough, it's kind of opposite over here. These high end clubnights tend to be a bit more experimental (but not the mainstream clubs of coarse) and the independent promoters are forced to book (slightly) more commercial names along the experimental ones 'because the rent id too goddamn high' to take too much of a chance. Socket Ryanist posted:Also how openly are drugs sold and consumed in clubs where you are? In the US we have laws that basically force venue owners to actively seek and kick out drug users/dealers or face prosecution, so at least around here people who like to take drugs usually stick to warehouse/art gallery parties (which have better music anyhow) Well it's hard to say. Being from the Netherlands, I don't want to feed the stereotype that we and the rest of Europe are all hedonistic partydruggers But then again I think that you would find that drug-use in clubs here is common and sort of accepted. 'Everybody' does it, and everyone knows that it's happening, which is probably a result of the avantgardists who have always been closely connected with the club scene in Europe. (like Tresor, or the late club Roxy in Amsterdam) So yeah, there is more drug use in clubs, however the police recently has begun to crack down on clubs and their owners, forcing them to do something against drugs and to take action against the problems that come with drug use. Which in its own right has sparked the rebirth of a very lively ravescene among the same artistic crowd that formed the backbone of the clubscene. So the rules aren't set in stone.

With vinyl everyone has their own way of making corrections, I typically blend a lot of techniques together: grabbing the spindle, tapping the rim, tapping the label, riding the pitchfader and I learned this neet trick the other day... When playing 33rpm records hold one finger on the 33rpm button, and quickly tap the 45rpm button with the other. Takes a few tries to get the hang of it, but it's very smooth if you get it. Of coarse you still need to adjust the pitch afterwards.
