KITCHEN DJ

So...

To get started you need a shit ton of money for equipment...?

[elchingon2u]

good job!! helped me alot!

[madskillz31093]

@myHEADisAtv - not a shit ton of money. but when I started which was 2 years ago I only had Virtual DJ and nothing else so I was stuck using my computer to do transitions. But I started getting money and saving up got myself a Pioneer DJM-400, TRAKTOR Pro, KRK Rokit 5 monitor speakers, dre beats and etc. it takes time.

@thefamilyk lmao!!!!!!!!

@omagron there's nothing wrong with trying t emulate your idol when you get started, you just have to find what works in the long run. Vinyl DJ's find it easier to use the Philly method because we do backspins and and it's easier with the tonearm not in your way.

PUT EM IN BATTLE MODE U BITCH

[DJDRAMAinc]

Why does she remind me of one of those fitness instructors??? One two three four, two two three four…..come on guys….feel tha burn

[derikamichele]

Nice tutorial and it doesn't hurt that you are also gorgeous ;)

[omagron]

@BoKnowsBest87 Well in a way, it is jumping on the Bandwagon. One person uses this set up and becomes famous, which means everyone does so they can "be like them". Whereas the real DJ's use decks to their own preference which enables them to perform best for their audience. You get me now?

[BoKnowsBest87]

@omagron Oh I see. I don't see it as jumping on a bandwagon given it's universally easier since you constantly have to switch form deck 1 to deck 2 and vice versa. But I can see it being a preference for some DJ's though. Made the comment because I've never seen a DJ in person with that set up but like you said it's a preference so I'm sure some people still mix that way.

[omagron]

@BoKnowsBest87 no they're not it self preference. I personally use this set up, I find its easier, just because pro's use the vertical set up, doesn't mean people have to jump on the band wagon...
