Thank You for Explaining that you have a System; and what that System is; for when and if your Laptop Crashes;
But for DJ’s who ‘Use this System’ as ‘Their Act’; isn’t this a little ‘Untrustworthy’ as a ‘Performance’; now you have Explained to me How the System Works’ such as Track 1 on CD1; followed by Track 2 on CD2 ?
As a Back-Up; I ‘Heartily Accept’ this as a Course Of Action to ‘Appease the Crowd and the Promoter/Club Owner’; but as the ‘Norm’ if it were to be this way (and I am talking about DJ’s I watch Live including Pete Tong and Carl Cox); does this is not seem a little like having 2 ‘K-Tel’ Complilation Albums on 2 Technics and just Fading One Track Out; and Bringing the Next Track In ?
This Sounds ‘Awful’ if this is ‘Normal Practice’ 🙁
Emma, not quite a pair of compilation CD’s i’d say… i’d imagine (or like to think at least) quite a lot of thought and skill has gone in to choosing what tunes have been selected for the cd’s, the same as any DJ choosing choons for a set.
newer CD DJ’s can read Mp3 off the CD too, allowing quite a fair amount of tunes to be stored on the discs..
If it was me personally, there would be extra tunes on there, above and beyond a pre worked out set, for emergencies, and of course you can just cut up and mess around with the order of play?
