also regarding the functionality.. i imagine it would pretty much suck when you play an 2h set or something and for the whole time you just stand there with this little thing in your hand, pushing buttons.. and then accesing crucial functions like eq/cross-/linefaders via some menus or whatever .. horrible..

My carpal tunnel is flaring up just thinking about it hmm

you never know maybe donking will catch on and you wont even need to mix

Re: "This will be to dance music...

Maybe you could program crossfader preset actions and say execute a crab-style scratch and then switch tracks, how super cool!

Do it your way, because everyone else is just weird.

Yeah. They would just be so wack and their lives would have been wasted on a "skill", when all they could have done was just been born later in the dawn of real technological advancements. I LOL.

this makes me think a lot about art vs technology, art vs science, and ultimately art as pure irrationality.  maybe advanced humans will look at us all and LOL

Reminds me of Genesis P. Oridge's closing comments on the Modulations documentary.

squarepusher frying eggs was good though.

I remember seeing their crates at parties back in the day, doubles for every record (to extend the breaks or do on-the-fly edits)

hey that would be ultimately ruinous for me... having doubles of all my 40+ euro records...

Re: "This will be to dance music...

Haha. I'm not saying that should be done now, unless you're a bit bonkers.

But back then you would have paid regular price for the stuff, you know?

memory stick ftw

Re: "This will be to dance music...

hard copies are obsolete. streaming is the new alchemy.

Re: "This will be to dance music...

Then I can see why everyone was upset about ItaloDiscoGod account being down. There must have been plans by DJFormatGod to tap into the database and stream for future funkgasmic gatherings.
