What Arbite said.
SmiTTTenParticipantIf people remember the mask over the music – the DJ has failed.
SmiTTTenParticipantThrowing a bag of spanners into a food processor while stamping on a cat is the preferred method.

Read the article through thoroughly and watch the video before using the script. If you are still having issues after that then we may be able to help more.
SmiTTTenParticipantHas he been sharpening you up with booze?

Ever wish you'd chosen a different one? #11441SmiTTTenParticipantMine came from an old London Acid Techno label from the 90s. At the time I went under a different name but used SmiTTTen as an IRC alias(among other things). Since getting back into things I decided that SmiTTTen was a name that I had used consistently for 15+ years so decided to make it my name.
SmiTTTenParticipantA British accent, all the best DJs have them.

PS I am still on track to be World’s oldest (and fattest) DMC Champion (providing they are still around in 2023).

Hey Jam (can I call you Jam?) Without meaning to be a spamming fool have a look at this: http://www.djtechtools.com/2011/11/29/upgrade-your-kontrol-s4-with-the-innofader-innobender/
it explains why/who/how.
Cheers mate,
SmiTTTenParticipantUse the not-so-old Freeze button using delay in advance.
SmiTTTenParticipantTry this method.
1. Pick 20 tracks out of your collection. These should be tracks that should loosely work together (i.e not 10 d&b and 10 techno tunes).
2. Remove EVERYTHING else from your collection. The only thing you should touch are these 20 tracks.
3. Work with these 20 tracks for 2 weeks. Don’t buy anything else, stay off beatport etc but listen to any other music you would normally listen to.
4, After 2 weeks take 5 of the 20 out of the collection. Which you take out is up to you.
5, Add 5 new tracks into the collection. By now you have an idea of what is gelling so the 5 you pick will likely already compliment the other 15.
6. Rinse and repeat as necessary.I call this the Island Vinyl Technique. I used to live on an island and only got to go shopping for new records every 2 weeks. This technique will force you to get to know your tunes and will also help sharpen up your buying process going forward. I think that having a huge library is a distraction and while it provides plenty of quantity, the quality is rarely there because the Dj simply doesn’t know those tunes well enough.
I promise this will make you a better DJ.
