  1. Motu ultralite will do, 2nd hand affordable, or basically any 2nd hand Motu is worth it Focusrite saffire as well
  2. Dropped a new tune today, not scratch related..more elektro vibes https://ushgulifootballleague.bandcamp.com/track/secrets
  3. last friday's session ,where i invited my old partners in crime, actually not dj's but rappers with a huge vinyl collection playing their weird stuff
  4. He actually makes some really good points above and it's mostly about layout and making a scratch record for musical purposes. That record was very innovative and ground breaking and I can see why it would take a few years. When you compare it to one of the many Dirtstyle and Dirtstyle knock-off records of the time, he's got damn good argument. Also, gotta love Reezy. He seems like he's doing pretty okay these days. Anyway, to try to tie all of this back into the topic though, hip hop producers have been sampling without clearing for years and years but there's always that risk that some copyright owner will show up and sue you. It's pretty hard to do things 100% legal without (a) spending loads of time and money to clear every single sample (b) using vetted sample packs © using drum machines & synths or (d) creating your own samples. As a result, that classic hip hop mentality has pretty much been stomped out for anybody unwilling to take the risk. Sy Spex has been doing some pretty cool workarounds using midi-mapping to sample grooves without actually sampling the recordings. Actually ableton live can do that, you can catch the groove easily from from a drumpattern for example and transform it into a midi file and add the sounds by choice, no mapping needed in this
  5. which Lorn are you talking about? this Lorn Jacking beats from Drexiya? The electro gods.....
  6. I can't tell, but follow your innervoice It comes to networking or putting yourself outthere, not sure about your age but i ran into multiple stories from youngsters, that sell&produce beats for rappers or for some Grime stuff. etc etc Understanding their tools perfectly, build the tune, mix it down, all in a day or two and send it and get some cash from it, this all pretty anonymous. Just great, something we could only dream of as kids....
  7. Todays session, of course interrupted by the almighty FB after 50min. or so Enjoy https://www.facebook.com/122880817733159/videos/253129149213143/
  8. Tomorrow we do the 2nd edition at 16.00 (CET), with two ladies that throw party's here in the area. Dubs/bassmusic/hiphop & experimental beats on the menu https://www.facebook.com/122880817733159/videos/2899529793607200/ https://www.facebook.com/Innocent-122880817733159/?eid=ARBhVqQf0jH2_ORW_JfVn9613U3c0yKtMe6su9moTwSv3sQKTy9LVmZ08HG8kWtweRYdaUG33OMiVgW1
  9. Thanks for tuning in Diggla))) We had some copyright issues(as everyone has nowdays) so the stream was taken down and after we sufferd from huge lag. Trying to sort out the ridiculous policy, i asked some guys that also set up boilerroom, in short you have to be whitelisted in the Facebook Rights manager to avoid to be taken down Prioir to that, you, yourself have to set up an agreement with the publisher/labels. Its a complicated matter and a grey area, besided that every platform(yt/twitch/mixcloud) has his own way of dealing with it...main rule according to the experts is, stream where your audience is. In this case frikkin' FB :-( *edit Choice of music is crucial btw
  10. Tommorow, there is a livestream we've setup, where people are invited to play the stuff they normally don't play at parties. So one can expect some deep stuff or gems from what's in their collection. Not all of them are neccesarily Dj's, some are just diggers or musicians but we try to keep a balance in it. We're starting tomorrow 16.00hrs (cet) every friday, different guests https://www.facebook.com/122880817733159/videos/273380437019733/ https://www.facebook.com/Innocent-122880817733159/
  11. Of course Rock steady Dj's we're way more technical (although i didnt get it fully at that time) but i was surprised to see this guys ending up in the second place Their performance was so energetic and powerfull
  12. Okay not a fair comparison but ever noted how ICE-T sounded in his early carreer and later on :-P Btw what was te story that Westwood got dissed by KRS in his radioshow, i never got that.
  13. some dark dubs https://www.facebook.com/twidlrecords/videos/258827795154451/
  14. Pretty much the ones mentioned above but there is to much to discover nowadays, some polish guys are really on it. Can't forget about Woody
  15. https://www.facebook.com/100014632389951/videos/825397694624636/UzpfSTE2NjE3OTU4Njc3MjAxNDoyOTE1NTM0MDIxODM2NTQz/ Future dub and some 140 to 160bpm things https://www.facebook.com/122880817733159/videos/874335689679472/ Reggae and some dub
  16. And in case somebody is wondering why it has so many plays, here is a short explanation(not sure if you can have subtitles in english)
  17. It has been topic in various discussions, its depending on the materials which where used but its impossible today to trackdown what was used 10 years ago I would be carefull with it in general, in China the producers of plastics don't really take care of the effects
  18. Be carefull with touching that, it's softener coming out of the plastic. It's the plastic itself which is decaying, you cant solve it with isopropanol. Don't wanna cause more frightening idea's besides the one we already have today, but normally when you touch or use stuff things regularly(like rotary knobs) you dont notice this cuz everytime you take a bit away. When leaving it untouched for a longer period, the softener stays at the surface and starts to become sticky My friend bought this NOS vestax controller, and it had totally sticky knobs sincee it was boxed for 10years or so This has been questioned a few years ago and some regulations were made, but the thing can affect your internal systems, depending on the materials used.
