  1. mixed in headphones - Check rush job after SSS - Check Od'ed on pancakes and stinky feet - check I made this with the hope that someone might like it, not me. #selloutwithshitendproduct
  2. John Lennon was fucking my shit up. Sacked off one of his albums and Traktor scanned all the collection.
  3. I have had a problem where a track ends and the deck won't let me load a new song in because it things the deck is still playing... that and crashing at collection import Yeah, but your music collection wasn't ripped from YouTube! What about ripped youtube rips from torrents?
  4. thats what im thinking dude. Even the mp3 tag repair programs are crashing on me! FFS I've managed to import about half the collection. #longtingz
  5. I've got 2.11.something and it crashes while importing my collection (which is large) and also decided to stop me loading songs into a deck every now and then. I've been importing a few folders at a time, closing the software and going back in again to do the same and this seems to be working.... Just stupidly boring and tedious!
  6. Hai What is the most stable/newest version please? I rolled back to an early stable version but it wouldnt play .mp4, I went forward and the software is wank and crashes loads.
  7. I think everyone was hungover or suffering with the heat. Shame I didn't realise paul was playing with himself in the other room, otherwise I'd have joined him.
  8. I recently discovered vr 360 "movies" and wondered what would be good for watching said material? something with a remote that plays stuff from PC I guess. I would be happy to play stuff on my S8+ if the headset took the phone in its case. Can't be assed taking the phone out the case every time nahmeen.
  9. I don't know anything about what they is and what they ain't, but other DJ's never moan about my spunk coloured slipmats and the plastic sheets underneath.
  10. who's cumming to MK? #billynomates
  11. some people do seem to have the "decks factor" I've been getting back into chords and keys of recent days... while I can see and hear I'm no chick corea, there's a tonne of theory available to learn, scales, progressions etc. I've wasted my life with bleep ahhhh fresh haha This leads me to wonder how much info is really available for zee scratching, that's accurate, well documented and can be taught/learned? Why are there so few ppl at Qbert's level? I guess there are far less people trying to master turntables compared to keyboard players for a start!
  12. in the words of alan partridge "lovely stuff"
  13. Phil said on another post about me cutting 10+years and (jokingly I hope) said he would never be that good if it takes that long. The crazy thing is, is that I've had decks for nearer to 20 years! Progress hasn't been linear either. Motivation, time, other commitments and interests have either pushed me to practice more or pulled me away from DJing all together. I find that progression has come in bursts. If I've discovered something new or been inspired to try something different, progress doesn't take that long. These moments of inspiration are far and few between though. The months of being stuck in a rut and running through the motions are the periods that hinder progress. These periods normally last about 10 months of the year for me haha. The other factor is our ability to learn new things, take on new concepts and put things into practice. It's easy to get comfortable with what you know and can do, to the point where it's bad habits that prevent learning because autopilot kicks in and you get nowhere. I guess the discussion now should be how long do you think it takes to 'get good'? The question is vague of course but I'm sat in an opticians with a long wait ahead and it was either start a post about scratching or vr porn!
  14. I'm still on the 06 and still scratch in a dressing gown. #oldskool
  15. when I watch back, I located boredom to kick in by about 2.30 EDIT: I even checked video analytics: average view time ..... 2 minutes thirty six seconds! Hi stranger
  16. Inspired by Mo and Doobs, I decided to upload a scratch practice... mostly boring and repetitive (and sloppier than a german gangbang) I hate recording and everything goes to pieces... so it's practice in front of the record button as much as its scratch practice.
  17. much respect for doing so many videos, I'd have quit after a couple of days! I've always thought you've got something special/unique to your style. If I had to play simon cowell, there isn't anything that I could say about you that we aren't all a bit guilty of; repetitiveness or the things we are comfortable with/good at etc While I think the "openness" of your cuts is partly whats makes your style you, perhaps trying to close the fader a tad earlier might tighten the cuts up, while retaining your sound? I'm still up for a practice session too doobs, god knows I need it!
  18. I think I'm too stupid to appreciate the type of music you're playing, but the playing itself is real nice brother.
  19. I ended up cooking and burning chicken ... I will take my case off some day... But that's not a bad option if it works
  20. From watching Pete and Sy cut, I'd also propose that you're possibly moving the fader long distances and that smaller movements will help speed you up. I thought you scratched reverse at first because the fader spent so much time on the other side
