 Coolness: 141360 | well.. yeah 160 minutes... but once you start mixing, at some point, your 160 minutes turns into 60 minutes of mix... and if the tracks you chose dont have the right vibe for the night you dont have the possibility to switch things around and adapt to your crowd... |

 Coolness: 103930 | well if he is preparing 2 cds of music for that particular set then I don't see the issue, he would still have 160 minutes of music to choose from to put into a 60 minute set, so that leaves 100 minutes of leeway.
Figure 2 cds full of tunes is the equivalent of 40 vinyls give or take. |

| Coolness: 68980 | ya but like i said my opinion, for me if i was to bring 3 hours of music on 2 cd's just boring i would rather bring i don't know a book of cd's more fun that way...But like i said it is just me. |

Figure 2 cds full of tunes is the equivalent of 40 vinyls give or take. true.... i dunno i guess i must be the one who is insecure about not having a maximum amount of selection on hand at all times... my switch to vinyl has taught me that my insecurity can be quite painful though... for my back that is yeeesh |

| Coolness: 103930 | Why bother stating your opinion in a incomprehensive manner and get your panties all twisted when people ask for a clarification.
What do you mean by boring is all I am asking. What aspect are you saying is boring, I don't understand your point. If you are not willing to "discuss" on a "discsussion board" well then you are best to go back to lurking, and never post again, this way no one will ask you to clarify your opinions. If a dj is mixing good music well, how is it boring? |

 Coolness: 93775 | rofl...
It is possible Lynn to play a sick set outta 2 cds... compiling before hand and having perticular selector.... bah, there is no reason to get hung up over the method, I am a purist at heart, I love vinyl, but I long ago dropped the whole "only real dj's do it with 12inches", its 2008, it doesnt matter what you use, it just matters what you do(barring ofcourse ipod wanabes). That being said, if you pre-program sets and burn them in advance, you'd be seriously surprised what little physical material you actually need... for top-40 gigs, I often make mp3 master cds, 4 of those can hold the top40 charts for the past 2-4 years... this is the advantage in using new digital technology... Ufot-technology+imagination=sky is the limit |

I would rather see a dj work it a bit more that that. Now i am not saying that the dj is playing has bad music or anything when he or she does that, i am a visual person when i am on the floor. I like to see the dj work it a bit more than just standing there, he or she may be dancing around a bit cool but they r in one position all nite in front of the cdj's... that is the boring part for me ... if it makes any sence! If a dj uses more than 2 cd's hence a book and goes back and forth all nite and starts a sweat and runs over here to get this one or that then that is what i like to see call me old fashioned but it makes sence to me!!! that is my 2 cents.... When i do play cd's it will be a whole bunch of em...and i will work it till i drop... |

| Coolness: 103930 | i see your point, I understand (now) what you are trying to say.
But still taking 1 cd out and replacing it with another still has no effect on how well the dj beat matches the songs that are on those cd's Fair enough, thanks for clarifying. Based on your description though, I could come in put on a pre-mixed cd, and then just keep rifling through my record bag, pretend to cue up a record, play with the mixer a bit, and put on a show and sweat for the crowd for 60 minutes ....Sure it may be visually stimulating, but er um, music... its an auditory thang A'int no hate Lyzzy, s'all luv up in here! |

Important notice yes the dj is the most important theing in the club yes? So it is very important that he or she be good no matter what..beat matching and good music and a smiling face and lovin it is the key n'est pas? Being a dj myself that is what i beleive...I love what i do i wouldn't change it for aything in the world....I dance, sweat, and play good music and work it all the time when i play..It is the love of the music i know u can agree on that!!! |

When i didnt live in MTL, i used to work 6 days a week. After work on saturdays, i would go home, fill a record bag to the brim, run down to the train station, get out at bonaventure (university and rene levesque) and haul ass up to the plateau, or wherever the jam session/party/rave might have been. not entirely sure of what my point is here, but, at the end of the day, overall performance, out-weighs record bags. how you choose to do it, is up to you. |

 Coolness: 84550 | i dunno what the point of this discussion is...
but tiesto has forgotten one rule... BROS BEFORE HOS MAN!!! but btw... whats whats wrong with burning 2 c.d.'s for a set and stuffing them in a book with 20 other c.d.'s and hoppin' in the metro to your gig? what is it... 2 C.D.'S OR NO C.D.'S??? who fuckin' cares as long as you show up on time and get a blow job at the end of the night? |

Thank god i know how to use em...I have the net now so i am gonna become a cd junkie..But i am still gonna buy vinyl from time to time. I love what i do and it shows when i mix..And whoever knows me knows that, whoever heard me knows that i give my all everytime i play...I just do what i have to see dancing smiling faces...I have been working very hard and we will see where it brings me! Never give up the music inside u it is your most beautiful gift to those blessed to see u preform to the music in all our souls... A poem by dj lynzyn |
