@chronikkid666 What "is" lame is people getting hung up about beatmatching! its easier than learning to ride a bike!! Software allows you to add loops multiple samples and edit live tracks live in the mix! but oh no!! ur not allowed to do that!!! because u havent beatmatched it! its like asking asking u to reply to this msg by using a carrier pigeon, get a grip people and move on, actually hear people are using "mobile" phones now instead of string and tin cans OH NO!! SOMEBODY STOP THEMMM!!!!!

Oh and whats with all the homophobic comments about Richie??.. leave it out and go back to your caravans, theres no room for rednecks in dance music

No more dj is required, have fun siting on de sofa and let the computer mix the mp3's

[IIDjFl4shII]

This is not how a dj should work :/

[SubRender]

I love it... Expanding and exploring all possible paths of sound. Beat matching is not the whole picture, Unless you use 3 or more turntables, beat matching is like breathing. I don't boast about breathing, it comes naturally. People who complain seem to show their degree of talent.

So Basically, DJing now is a Step up from working at a Theme Park Ride no? They too push flashing buttons & watch people scream/shout! And I suppose if they get bored of Working at the theme park, they can always turn to DJing! There's just more buttons, & you have more variety at what your announcements can be! :)b

@MrDirtytechno I agree with what you said but the issue is that people just can't beatmatch anymore, just rely entirely on their computer. I learnt on a midi controller and now when i beatmatch a set it feels like i'm actually working for it so much more, it's quite satisfying

It's always nice in my opinion to do things that go of time and get a bit fucked up.

[iTriGGletyi]

All you have to do is gotto my Fav folder on my channel and how alive House was in the 90s.

Yes, alive.

FACT - Techology kills human emotion.

[eldorado303]

@iTriGGletyi kinda true. though he played some acid stuff when he played here in portugal, a while ago, which wasnt bad.

[iTriGGletyi]

What a fuckin tool. You could be sleeping at the booth. I DONT GIVE A FUCK.

As long as the music is good. He really is clueless. Fuckin cluess. Its like DJs have to become a lead singer. Whats this twat on?

ITS ABOUT THE MUSIC, NOT YOU, and what your pyhsically doing up there.

No wonder house music is dead. His sets are ULTRA boring, and shit.

[iTriGGletyi]

All that tech and his sets are still shite.

90s best period in House era, Fact.
