MemberNo, mate… But we have been called the Blackburn Mafia before now, even though i’m from Bolton and most of our DJ’s are from Darwen.. go figure 😀
U31
MemberCheers Emz, ill have a go…
My mate who is on the proper course says next time he’s over he’ll bring the videos and his vestax.. 😀U31
MemberYeah i’m finding that… for doing a recording it doubtlessly would be flawless, but for on the fly DJing it seems a big faff about rather then a few seconds beat matching etc..
Not really impressedU31
MemberOk ok, i’m sold on the idea too now.. Gonna D/l the trial and give it a whirl..
U31
Member10 is just me n the Mrs gettin’ warmed up!

MemberWhat is your Mixcloud address D Jam? Ill definitely get on that!
Edit: Gotchya.. let the stalkage commence…
U31
MemberYeah, just click on a track, it gives you the option to legally buy, or see who else is using that track
Edit: Just had a look, click on track or artist… 😉 It would appear that im the only one on mixcloud Using The Thompson Twins Alter Ego – Babble
http://www.mixcloud.com/artist/babble/
shame, they put out loads of good music as BabbleU31
MemberYeah, getting stuff out there on Mixcloud is poor unless your Cox or Digweed :p
The promotion tools are pretty poor unless you pay to get your profile on the front page..
I just stick my stuff up there for a bit of fun, its up there if we are ever at a house party and everyone is all played out, click on a mix and the music carries on.What i do love is being able to click on a tune in your mix and see who else is using it, then listen to how they have worked it, and how the play list is timestamped, i have had many great ideas for new tunes off there listening to other peoples sets

MemberAgree^^^^ and watermark your tunes too with your name drop every few minutes in the tune if you dont want them ripping off too…
i’ve surprised a few DJ’s and producers showing them how easy it is to rip off music from there even if its not set to be downloadable..
Put it this way, if you are listening to something off the internet, you HAVE downloaded it, the tricky bit is getting it in to a format that can be saved to the hardrive for later off line playback.. I’m scrupulous and these people are my mates, so i ask em first if i can save stuff, if they yes, cool… if they say no its also cool, i wont do it.
But not everyone is like me!U31
MemberIt’s only fellow DJ’s who might consider how you mixed the same tracks differently, but the % they comprise of the crowd is pretty low, no
Lol not on one of our nights… a quick mental tot up of the crowd at last major nights we did and i’d say it was 40% DJ’s, 30% wives girlfriends husbands or boyfreinds of DJ’s so they are getting the technicalities rammed down their ears every day, 20% were mates of DJ’s with the rest made up of passers by coming in off the street!
I see you are from Manchester, Haroon? If you & your mates fancy a taste of that, and and are free and able to get too and from Liverpool on the last August bank holiday, i can give you a link to the next available night (this weekends do is a sell out already), Marshal Jefferson is headlining and all proceeds go to charity..
U31
MemberWe have a very good mate doing the Ableton course as i type ( Mixcloud page here… http://www.mixcloud.com/brendan-idolitus-hughes/ )
He is gonna get the Vestax Vcm600 controller.. No doubt once he gets adept with it he’ll be landing on my doormat with his Mac and Controller… Ill report what its like once he does!U31
MemberI gather your story is similar Phil, house moves and moving the vinyl?
