Reply to Switching to vinyl?

So after about a year with the vci-100, I find myself in a hard place. I recently went to a club to see a dj play a hard techno set. I have really only see DJs play with cdj's and mixers, so I was surprised when I saw this DJ running vinyl. Where I'm going with this is after watching his set I was thoroughly impressed with the performance, there is something in the performance on the tables that really intrigues me and I would love to get a set of turntables to go with my ddm-4000 mixer. However I believe I would like go the time coded route, unfortunately I know absolutely zero about this process, (getting ready to pay my dj dues ) so I was wondering if anyone has any good links to resources I might be able to read, or if anyone wants to share their knowledge that would be abwesome! Thanks!
