you know youre a DJ when.... Posted on: 28.07.2010 by Maisie Marras youre reminded of mixing while you try to keep the speedo exactly on the sped limit (beatmatching. believe of the pedal as the pitch fader, the needle as deck b and the speed limit as deck a)post your own | |
| Lin Danek 30.12.2010 | [QUOTE=dumdidum;202301]i'd prefer having no music at all over listening to crappy-sounding youtubes. Not only crappy sounding, but often crappy looking too. Nuke the 'spinning circle'. Life is too short to waste it waiting on you (tube) |

And then you bring him to your club gigs and do the same thing, and when your doing it, most people are looking at you believeing... what the fuck is that guy doing? |

What I've been known for is to Shazam songs at the club... Be the only guy holding his phone up high while dancing to shazam/record the song so I can grab it online later on... Shazam's my guilty pleasure lol |

| Addie Engbrecht 29.12.2010 | When you get shitfaced at a friends wedding and start scratching on the wedding djs cdj when he goes to the bathroom.......yea not cool but i did it. |
| Maisie Marras 29.12.2010 | you know youre a dj when you want to mix in a dubstep track to the sound of a car not starting (just turn the key and dont let go, you know the sound) |
| Willia Subotic 28.12.2010 | When your speedometer needle is f***ed, bounces up and down when stationary, and you work out the BPM and introduce a dubstep tempo using the accelerator while stationary at traffic lights! :P |
| Dotty Fadeley 28.12.2010 | feeling the *need* to beat match the treadmill at the gym to the set playing in your headphones. Its amaizing how banging techno or gabber gets your heart rate going |

| Bethany Adrianzen 24.12.2010 | When listening to a song in the club, you know what YOU would mix into next, and are disappointed when the dj doesn't. When you hear the track that's coming next minutes before anyone else in the club, tell your friends, and get that smug satisfaction when your mates look at you minutes later like :eek: how did you know. when at a houseparty and everyone is just chilling, putting tracks on youtube, etc, you usually end up in control, and try mixing using youtube alone. |

| Audrey Pinda 24.12.2010 | When you can be asked about any MIDI controller, Turntable, or CDJ, and you know the specs and their capabilities without evening owning them. When you know how to actually beat-grid a track in Traktor properly with minimal time. When you spend hours searching local craigslist ads and buy/sell community s just to see if that "must have" piece of gear is up there. |

| Janyce Jardon 23.12.2010 | you know your a DJ, when you go through all of this thread and can relate to basically everything everyone said. You know your a DJ/producer when you can listen to a song, and know exactly what preset theyve used for the song and from what synth, or how to make a patch on your own synth that sounds exactly the same. You know your a DJ/producer when your going through a sample pack, and you can name a song/several songs that use that particular sample as soon as you hear it. you know your a DJ when your non DJ friends stop showing you songs because they know youve already heard it. or they start asking you for music advice. you know your a DJ when it takes you half an hour (literally) to scroll through your iTunes purchase list, even when scrolling quickly. You know your a DJ when you have to buy custom made earplugs because your spending too much time in the (loud) clubs and youve developed a slight case of tinnitus. You know your a DJ when you start having dreams about midi mapping and mixing. You know your a DJ when you believe everyone elses stereo sounds like crap, unless theyre also a DJ and have bought monitors :P you know your a DJ when youve spent more on gear/music than you have on cars/petrol. You know your a DJ when 2 of the pillows on your bed are round with "vynil" pillow cases over them, and then in between them, your rectangle pillow has a "mixer" pillow case on it. you know your a DJ when youve bothered to buy a levis "flat eric" plush doll... and every time you pick it up, you play "flat beat", and bop his head along to the bass wobbles. and then you bring your flat eric doll along to a club gig and do the same thing, and most people wonder what the fuck your doing... you know your a DJ when your bedroom looks like a christmas tree all year round. MERRY XMAS EVERYONE!!! |
| Nedra Fresneda 23.12.2010 | when x-mas and your birthday is this weekend and you new gear arriving on tuesday is more important |

PS: not bbashing him for using a controller, its the fact that he still blew with it (i tihnk it had sync too) |
