    Where's the turntables, where's the big black discs in cardboard sheets???

    Where's the time I grew up in?

    Ive got two oldschool turntables but I must admit I have slipped into the modern as well. Ive been using Reason and Fruity Loops to mix it up.

    The days of the street dj are slipping away.

    I agree, (and for the record do not use cd's or ipods) but you have to admit that some of this software coming out can make some sick ass sounds and loops.

    Good to see that some keep to the old ways. I mean who can be a DISC jockey without discs?

    I dont know about keeping the old ways, when I saw a 10 year old scratching on morning tv that was it.

    I'd feel very cheesy to be dj'ing with two ipods arranged in that clean-cut case. Everything else being equal, I'd support a DJ with 2 turntables. It's more work for him/her but to me real (and rare) vinyl adds to both sound and the atmosphere a lot. I am very old skool, I guess...

    I was referring to the "sick ass"... I just cant understand how thats a good thing :D But yea, dont worry about it.

    As for the vinyl question. I know a jamaican guy in Guelph ontario who does it for me for $15/ea. I think thats pretty cheap, because we only usually get 10 made to hang on walls and stuff :) Nobody who would buy my music would listen to it on LP anyway.
