    This might work for you Rizki, but not all of us can use such archaic methods!

    lol,

    at dj school uk if someone needs a punishment they have to practise baby scratches.

    So far no one has needed a punishment, and everyone loves practising their scratching anyway 🙂

    You know the term DJ in my opinion does not mean much these days. It is a general term anyone can add to themselves. It just says I play music back to back and I can select tracks. Well anyone can do that with an MP3 player by creating a playlist. SO not difficult. What is difficult is being able to read a crowd and select the right tracks at the right time.

    There is no exam no qualification for this profession. Along with anything in music and certain arts the only way to prove you credentials is to to show it. To do that you have to persuade someone to let you do that. So go do your thing, listen learn and have fun. Maybe even earn some money along the way. Define to people who you are by what you play and how you play it. Keep the crowd happy and you will be happy.

    Keep spinning, scratching, playing, remixing, mashingup and generally loving the music….

    I really think we need to purge on this new phase. New digital gear just means that more people can actually DJ, or at least learn to? Will DJing become easier? Yes. But what that means is that with people suddenly getting better, It would take more to be considered “good”. I have heard that if you can play Vinyl, you can play anything, which to some extent, is true. But the same can be achieved by a devoted person who learns without software assistance (or with limited)
