Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

I don't get what peoples fascination is with what medium the sets are played on, I don't even look at what a DJ is using, I just listen to the music. I had so many people message me on soundcloud to ask what I was using that I had to put it in my profile in the end. I honestly don't understand the fascination, and so what if I use Traktor or Serato, or CD or Vinyl, or time coded 1200s vs Xone: DX??

It is all just a tool to get the music out there.

Three of my favourite Sasha sets are Harmony from around '93 I guess, Warung Beach (2006?) and Fabric recently.

1st one is vinyl and just great mix of tunes that can't help you smile.

2nd one is ableton and the tunes are messed around with like mad, part 2 is just sublime and when you know the records you realise just how much he is editing them, but he is not ruining the flow, which is what so many ableton DJs tend to do, it never sounds edited and that is important.

And the last set is back to basics, pair of CDJ200's blending 2 tunes together, yeah the looper is being used, but it sounds good, it sounds raw and it sounds very live.

To me it is all about the tunes being played, media really doesn't matter a toss.

I don't know that it's a "fascination" I personally like to know what someone uses to make a promo for my own geeky techy curiosity

saying it's all about the tunes being played is like saying the sky is blue, we know that, but for some of us it's nice to know what's being used, in the studio

as far as mixing in clubs, I'm with you to an extent, I don't need to see it on the flier or promo material who's playing on what, because unless they're playing from an iPod (which I feel pretty confident in saying any dj I would want to go see would never do that) it isn't going to make or break my decision to go.. having said that, it is somewhat refreshing to see a dj playing vinyl in a club because you know you'll most likely hear some tunes you've more than likely not heard all over the place and it took time and effort to search for the tracks, rather than just point click download

I must say though I'm a bit tired of hearing some local dj's constantly slagging off technology and making sure everyone within ear shot knows you only play vinyl and will NEVER move over to the dark side, it doesn't make you sound cool it makes you sound like a tosser

This has nothing to do with the Medium, it just comes down to a DJ being lazy or not. Just because a DJ is playing with Traktor doesn't mean he's not going to dig to find those rare gems out there.

I'll admit it, I have about 30,000 tunes I've downloaded from a private torrent site in 2010, and I listen to every single one. A lot, and I mean A LOT, of it is garbage, but at the same time there's a lot of artists I never would have found other wise who I have now added to my list on Beatport so I get updates when they have new stuff come out and buy their stuff then.

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

I've been collecting vinyl for over 10 years now, and I will continue to do so. Unfortunately it's becoming increasingly difficult to do so with so many record shops going out of business. Showing up to the record shop that I grew up going to and seeing it's windows shuttered was a really shitty thing. I try to buy recent releases that I really love on vinyl, but it's hard if not impossible, so being able to play currently material is getting to be a real pain in the ass, aside from just the cost. Obviously though, I'm not suggesting that the only music worth playing are recent releases.

I totally understand, and to a certain extent sympathize with, the anti-digital/pro-analogue backlash some DJs feel, but at the same time, digital DJing has fundamentally altered what it means to be involved with the music whether you like it or not.

But anyways, I prefer to go with both at the same time:

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

Then why would you specifically say that a vinyl DJ would take time and effort to search for tunes while a digital DJ just "Point, Click, Download"?

That is pretty funny actually, but who knows what "software" issues she's having? Could have something to do with the recording software, or maybe she tried loading it into Ableton after recording to add gentle compression and limiting on it to make it sound more coherent?

I see what you're saying and that's not how it was meant to come out.. buying vinyl costs more, takes longer to arrive, more difficult to come across these days.. I didn't mean to say if you download tracks you aren't putting effort forth, of course you are, I do it daily

doesn't it depersonalize the music though? i mean, in all seriousness, you are just pointing and clicking. sometimes you skim through a track really fast, sometimes you just let it play. but still, the ease of scrolling through online music sites is nothing close to the investment (time/money/emotion) in diggin through crate after crate of vinyl .

With out a doubt, I won't deny that. Tracks are just more like tools and functional now a days. They usually have a shelf life of 3 months before they are considered "old" and you have to find a new tool to replace it. There really isn't much "music" left in "dance music" these days to be honest as well. And there isn't anything wrong with that in my opinion, just how things have evolved.

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

Before..when I used Beatport alot, I would literally fall asleep searching for tracks. page after page, click after click, granted I was able to obtain stuff I would never have of on vinyl but going through hundreds of pages and finding nothing at 2am...well it took a toll.

I've gone back to those mp3 purchases that I considered "gems" and grabbed the vinyl. Why? Because I rather have it on vinyl.

To me, certain tracks require the vinyl medium instead of the digital copy. I feel that if I own the actual vinyl Im saving it (don't know from what lol) but it is it's original source...its "birth" if you will and I'll be damned if its thrown out or tossed in a crate never to be touched again while its evil clone is out there having fun.. fuck that shit!

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

iv had a rattle at mixing on my bro's abelton and after takin a while to get the hang of it,i understand the simplicity of havin everything u want to play right there in a click.but for me it takes away from the originality of djing cuz if u have ever stood+watched a top top dj flick thru their box get a tune on +start mixing within seconds you appreciate the skill envolved.whereas for me the technology has takin that magical edge off the whole experience. wot i mean is,you wouldnt be even half as interested in carl cox standing clicking a mouse if you had the choice of watching him flying round his vinyl collection blowing your mind with the skill he has,dropping bars of a tune into the middle of another then pulling another out when your thinking he hasnt got time to mix it then firing the next one on with ease....... that is a sight that the average joe given the option would pick to see over someone just standing stationary mixing

I've had the same experience.

I get it: digital is convenient, cheap, and incredibly extensive. You can theoretically find the entire world of music right at your fingertips. But something is lost in that process. I dig for tunes online and occasionally find some good stuff, but it's never a real pleasurable experience like it used to be back when I was a hard-core crate digger.

Even aside from pilgrimages up to Chicago and other big cities around me, just the record store we had in Indianapolis gave me countless of hours of weekend pleasure. You roll out late, coffee in hand, head for the store... and it's a[I] real experience[/I]. You actually meet people and interact with them. You find out what's new on the local scene...you get into some awesome after-hours parties. I made a lot of friends digging for tunes who led me to great musical experiences all over the country. But you also dig for yourself, never knowing quite what you'll discover. Even as a picky shopper constrained by limited inventory, my yield of really good, inspiring music was much higher than it is today online. It's ironic, but I feel like it was easier for me to grow musically in those years than it is in today's digital world. And at the end of it, there was the satisfaction of knowing that you're one of the few who [I]gets it[/I] and [I]cares[/I] to really know this music as an art form. You gained so much more than just the music, and I'm not even talking about the fact that you owned something real at the end of it. Those were probably the golden days for me.

Today, I still like the music and yearn for it. But my main constraint is that I've had to move around a lot, and I just don't have the physical space right now to maintain and grow a record collection anymore. So now I can sit alone in front of a computer screen, clicking away on these damn links for hours. At the end of it, I've interacted with [I]no one[/I]. And I've gone [I]nowhere[/I] and experienced [I]none[/I] of the real peripheral stuff that brought joy to my record hunting.

It's oftentimes a lonely, monotonous, and frustrating experience - I listen to more shitty music than should ever be humanly justifiable, and I yield one or two good tracks for like a full week's worth of searching. And all I basically have to do is move a digit about one eighth of an inch. It's taken a lot of the fun out of it.

I get that you can do a lot with the digital medium and that the sound coming out of the speaker is what ultimately matters most. And I get that digital is king now and that's just how it will be. I use it, too, and I reap benefits from it as well. But I feel sorry for people coming into the DJing movement today who never got to have even a taste of what it was like to be a part of the crate-digging club and experience something more real through the process of discovering the music. It may sound ironic to some, but it was a happier holistic experience for me digging through crates and not knowing all that was out there than solitarily clicking on virtual buttons with the whole world at my fingertips. I'm grateful I had a chance to be a part of it all before it mostly went the way of the dinosaur.

Nice reply ! It sounds really like my own experience. In the past I was a huge cd collector. Always went to the same vinyl/cd shops and I loved it (it was like a day out). After a little time you start talking with the shopowner and he helps you finding more and more good stuff :D. I have to be honest that searching for good tracks is nowadays much easier. But it's indeed not "a day out" anymore. Now it's more like: "damn, haven't checked the new stuff this week, will I dig those 20 pages wright now or will I do it tomorrow"... And when I got the tracks I like I put them in a map. I won't see the boxes shining anymore, it's just a little map on my computer that will probably be forgetten after 2 or 3 years.

I was there when Lotus was THE place to be. hearing shinichi records on a big system week in and week out.....pure pleasure. tryin to think of who else was around during that period. remember faces, but not names.[/QUOTE] Cool... That was a nice little party! I was probably right next to you, acting all obnoxious and intoxicated. We did the obligatory tag-team session in Seth's basement afterwards, and I remember Habersham getting so hazed out by the early morning that he didn't realize he was mixing into a track only in his headphones until we were like..."dude, it's silent in here for like two minutes now." :lol: Brad and Molly were oftentimes there as well - she used to mix. Brad had some pretty legit dance moves that he busted out only occasionally.

Therapy is no more, alas...not sure when exactly they pulled the plug. I guess it was unfortunately all too predictable that a place like that would ultimately have a limited lifespan in a town like Indy. Brad and Molly are still in Indianapolis last I heard as are quite a few of the other Therapy regulars, some of whom post on here now and then...

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets

ive just came in from the the bar and my wife and sum of her friends are having a drink and listening to tunes from the late 90s on a cd. i asked wot they wud prefer to see being mixed,ie vinyl or mp3/digital. most of em are around the 30s to be fair but they say they appreciate seeing a dj actually mixing records in front of them rather than not knowing wot is actually going on while theyr waitin on another tune comin on.

so maybe its just generations then............

but vinyl will be back..........................................
