HaroonParticipant
I’m not in the US, but I believe you have access to Pandora? However my favourite is Last.fm as its great way of finding new music, can you access that?
HaroonParticipantFor singles I usually buy from Beatport, I stack them up and wait till I get sent a 20% off offer. For Albums I tend to still buy on LP vinyl. I some times use tunechecker.com to find the best deal, but considering price difference after discount is not much, i tend to stick with Beatport’s 320 files.
HaroonParticipantThat is a very tragic story and I feel for your loss, truly. A reminder for us all to get out there and do what we love before its too late. I wish your ‘luck’ continues.
HaroonParticipantThe last big travelling I did was to go to 17 countries across South East Asia and South America – Tibet to Brasil, finished with the carnival in Salvador 😉 Also been to some places in Europe like France and Netherlands, and lived in Belgium for a year. Last year I did a trip to Pakistan from the south to the north and parts of Kashmir. If I get a chance I would go do central america or eastern europe next, I’d also love to go back to live in Brasil for a while.
HaroonParticipantIts Man City for me 😉
HaroonParticipantJust surfacing from last night, went out for a few random drinks and seen a band at the pub called ‘Scratters and the funky disco pigs’ weren’t great 🙁 But there is the boxing to look forward to tonight – Haye V Klitchco, I hope for an upset. Then tomorrow is the beech road festival.

Interesting stuff from Tensnake, he is the most un-german sounding german producer . Also his productions aren’t heavily compressed like much of the stuff is usually these days.
HaroonParticipantSebastien Leger I like his take on Techno and for similar reasons Uto Karem. Though I also like Felguk take on electro house, Chromeo for synth-pop.
HaroonParticipantI started off with Virtual DJ, but then switch to Traktor Scratch Pro, because at the time Traktor had 4 decks, great possibilities for midi programming so you could customise your controller so that a a particular knob or fader can do more than one thing. Traktor also had a better interface and effects. But it seems like Virtual DJ has made leaps and bounds since I have used it last.
My only major gripe with traktor is library management, funny coloured waveforms in Traktor 2 are nice, but day to day i need to manage my growing music collection and that means using smart playlists, which traktor doesn’t do, so I have to use Itunes. Then the problem in Traktor is when you view the itunes playlists it doesn’t show all itunes fields like grouping nor the key field. So, you have to use workarounds like the comments field which I’d rather use for something else. Along with smart playlists, it would also be awesome to have key analysis.
