Nice one, thanks dude.

Do you think getting a custom built PC is the way to go?

A DJ is not a talented musician. 99% of DJ's are wankers, especially today
didnt like this comment - I have know quite a few and very few of them have been 'wankers' - sweeping statement perhaps?

You can't sneeze sideways without hitting a dj today. Based on simple mathematics that 1% leaves about 5,000 dj's ;)

Even in the days of records you'd have loads of DJ's that would play the same set week in, week out and buy maybe one or two new records every 3 months. And not because they couldn't afford it, but because they didn't want to break their anthem formula.

I stand by my statement. Nearly every DJ believes they deserve to play the headline slot at every gig. They think that their musical tastes are superior and they command attention regardless of their ability.

I'd even go so far as to say 99% of DJ's right now couldn't play a proper warm-up set if their lives depended on it. A sign of a DJs talent to me is their ability to play a time slot in proper fashion. But that's a whole other argument innit ;)
Techno producer and DJ concerned by the social obligation to pigeonhole by design and inspired by the desire to hold pigeons.

do you mean putting one together yourself or one of those audio PC's? i would go for the second option, lots of people have trouble when building a PC for music. i'm a mac user so i can't give much advice on the PC market.

although fun, you will need more equipment to record it and it's very limited compared to software.

In all of your arguments you are so in love with your own opinion that you have convinced yourself that is it right.
You are making a laughing stock of yourself right now with comments like that.
It's cool to have a discussion on here but you argue like a teenager who thinks they are always right and that is not for me.
