  1. nah it's not, forget this ever happened
  2. i'm so sorry this is such a stupid request. it's an electro track, so early/mid 80s. not sure if it's totally instrumental. now in my brain i'm suspecting Noize used it. but then again he did use jam on revenge so maybe i'm mixing it up with that. anyway ignore everything....
  3. OK Steve... not so much a track ID, as a guess what song is in my head challenge... it's definitely been used in a dmc battle and my guess is USA 1999-2001, so i might resort to rewatching if you can't krypton factor this one... i also considered that it might feature in a famous mix, like one of the Lessons, or chemist and shadow It's almost like the intro of Get into the groove by Madonna, very similar intro melody, if it was produced by Newcleus.... it's the melody for a few bars before the drums come in... God this is useless of me, but it also makes it more impressive when you inevitably get it... (hopeful face??)
  4. Djackulate. I'm biased of course, but his freestyle cuts are amazing, his drumming is brilliant, he has the drums and the vocal cuts, and now his routines/showcases are getting fucking seriously good. i'm currently putting together a thread of his stuff here: http://www.digitalvertigo.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=41826 it was a shame at the clash of the titans that he never got to battle IQ as IQ went out in the other semi final.
  5. I ended up picking up a pair of these. Sennheiser PXC 550 I was considering the Sony ones... and they actually just brought out the XM4s, but i saw that you can't switch between 2 devices as conveniently as Sennheisers can, and that was one thing that was annoying me before. These retail at about €240, but Ended up finding a pair brand new second for €100. The Noise Cancellation is decent, and I don't really use it much, but obviously never going to be as good as on the sonys. Theyre comfortable, and sound pretty good. There is one annoying thing that itunes automatically starts up the odd time seemingly without prompting, it's not that often, but must figure out whats going on.
  6. have any of you ever Djed with a set of Bluetooth headphones? Just wondering if the latency would be noticeable. Are any mixers compatible these days or do you need to have a receiver going into the headphone jack? I'd be interested at that price point. I'm too careless sometimes so i have a hard time investing too much. I have destroyed good sony and pioneer ones needlessly in the past... Plus i'm not actually that fussy about what headphones i use when Djing.
  7. I had actually just been reading recently about Peter's old Gold Top Les Paul which he gave to Gary Moore, and Gary it sold when in financial trouble later on. Kirk Hammet from Metallica owns it now. Kirk isn't the best player in the world, but at least it's just not sitting in some billionaire hoarders gaff. https://www.guitarworld.com/gear/kirk-hammett-talks-about-his-prize-peter-green-and-gary-moores-les-paul-see-it-action
  8. I was very interested to see the spec of this. I picked up a Pixel 3a early this year, got it for only 220 euro. Rear camera is brilliant for 1 lens and for the price, i believe its the processing behind it that google have nailed, but 64GB of space is a bit annoying. I wonder how the Pixel 4a will compare to this.
  9. Me again Obviously I know the beat, but whats the video clip from? obviously it's world famous from ruck's usage for the intro of RRRAP. The chap has made a few other decent vids on his YT channel
  10. anyone know the beat that comes in just after 1 minute. Obviously i recognise it, but do you reckon its an instrumental of something, or just a loop on a battle rec?
  11. Slightly different use case, but i bought one of these which i now use to beam wifi from a main house out to a shed which then means more of the garden is covered too. Only have it going about 30 metres maybe, it does claim 300m though. https://www.devolo.com/devolo-gigagate
  12. haha not sure. hope there a bonus round where you have to have an affair with lilo Lil.
  13. Might not be familiar to anyone not from UK or Ireland, but I almost bought this in a charity shop just because i was so intrigued as to how the fuck they made a board game out of the Liverpool based family sitcom....
  14. OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT CROWD. One of those programs I always randomly put on when I'm bored. You need to watch it to at least S02E01 - Work Outing. My favourite episode. I was actually disappointed with the first season when it first came out, but it was s02e01 where they found their footing and the show got better. it's a great episode. and that in turn made rewatching series 1 better.
  15. I used to love that as a kid! is it the one with the Waikiki?? Shit, must check if it's in my folks house . Also has anyone actually played the game PANDEMIC? I nearly bought this when it came out a few years ago
  16. We don't stray too deep into the geeky territory. Mainly Boggle, Yahtzee, 30 Seconds, Trivial Pursuit. I went to the game shop in dublin with thought of maybe buying Jaipur or something, but ended up coming back with Skulls and Codenames. I did make my own game a few years ago. I was working in a PR/ad agency and i thought it'd be a good idea as the corporate gift. Idea was for it to be kinda like a mix of 30 seconds, articulate pictionary. Basically, draw it , hum it, act it, describe it... kind of thing i wrote every single clue, and had to do it in about 2 days. One of my mates in the office did a silly unboxing of it.
  17. my huawei died finally. Bought a brand new Pixel 3a of a guy, sealed with receipt for €230. Chuffed with it. Clean android, and the camera is fucking sick! Speakers are pretty good too, battery seems fine, but as we're currently tripling our usual phone usage, it's hard to guage yet what it realistically should be insane price for a great phone.
  18. was just about to say them. saw em here years ago, always a well planned set. Statics 99 set was pretty dope.
  19. And Yellow was the International symbol for 'Sports'
  20. or else just click the share link on the YT page and copy the short link, instead of copying from the address bar
  21. Can i just admit to buying What Hi-fi magazine about 3 times in the past, and being enthralled by the richer sounds catalog "separates"
