  1. Well done Badman Joe! And cheers Motek for the call to scratchy arms!
  2. Running this through me mixer and high-fi, the house is shaking more than usual.
  3. Yeeeah, quality shtuff everyone. I had a lot of fun practicing for it. I think it helped me improve quicker than usual too. Joe’s cuts were OCD clean, looks like his gear is too.
  4. Cheers Mr. Sy and Mr. Jam. Props to everyone in the battle so far. Dope sheeet ! Very different styles on display. I created an account some months ago. Haven’t posted to it or browsed it much. https://www.instagram.com/djspaceboyfromthefuturerealms/ <~ I’m an awful goon.
  5. Same as Mr. Burglar. If I don’t do better tomorrow night I’ll post summit from the practices. Still can’t turn it on, so to speak. Can’t decide which beat to use either.
  6. Making patterns is great fun. Sequencing a track is harder for a manic mind.
  7. Quality. My favourite stuff to scratch to. Gonna have to channel DJ Flare.
  8. Haha, that’s me in the picture wearing my DJ Chile gloves, because it’s still a little chilly here on the island.
  9. To da 2 bredrins above: yea, dem Om jobs are reasonable enough price. Gonna have to get new headshells too. Havent changed anything bar styluses since I bought me 12s. (12 years ago now, youd think Id know about this stuff!) My headshells are monstrosities. Im not much worried about skipping. Main thing is not wearing out the vinyl fast. Any ye know the craic with this needle ~> https://i.imgtc.com/sgzc0Uq.jpg I have a vague memory of the dude who gave me it saying it wasnt good for the vinyl? Aint no dj shops in my town where I can ask my questions ! Oh, its a Stanton needle btw.
  10. Yah, depends on the misdeeds. My fav artist is Vybz Kartel. He’s locked up 8+ years now for masterminding a murder. His songs were always drenched in gansterism, so I still regard him as I have from the start. It’s very difficult to discern the truth when it comes to what is published in media. Some artists and people are legitimate victims of high-level smear campaigns. Jacko and Kells seem well dodge though.
  11. Props to all the entrants, fair fucks to ye ! For me Mr. Ric Morley gets the first pass to Level 2. (How he moves in the knights armour?!)
  12. Perfect forum for me to ask another shite question ! Budget cartridges and needles suggestions peeps? I wasn’t liking the look of prices when I was having a gander earlier.
  13. Yeah, been playin about with the Caustic demo and it’s bloody fun, even for a complete noob like me. The dude’s tutorial are excellent too, simple explanations. I’ll be sure to post my Gabber tracks for y’alls enjoyment when I get the hang of it !
  14. Recently bought my first smartphone, Huawei P-Smart so its an Android jobby. Anyone recommend an app so I can make tracks and loopers and such? I used to mess around with Fruity Loops on PC many a year ago and found it good for a beginner. Is the smartphone app any good? Are there cheaper apps that are just as good or better? Would my phone even be powerful enough for such an app? Forgive me if this has all been discussed before, I couldnt find a board on here about such matters. PEACE !!!
  15. A dice is any teared transformer according to Qbert DIY series. The ones that I find a bitch to do are backwards chirps, ie. start open in or after the sound and move record hand back, close fader then forward and open simultaneously. I can do ‘em in combos but can’t get funky with them like one can with original chirp, probably why peeps scratch against the grain sometimes. Cool vid though Doob, nothing wrong with your face either, you’re a handsome chap !
  16. Fuckin lool, Zig and Zag ! Remember the reggae happy birthday roll-call ?
  17. Mr. Jam Burglar #1 for composition. Shouts to JHouse for nastiness, and TBear for lulz.
