Steve Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 i think it was around £1500something like that im not sure but (and i was soooo happy about this) if u do get ur fees payed foru also get £350 refund back at the end of term 2!! Do you think it's worth it? What do you learn that you couldn't learn at home? I'm not knocking it, cos if I was younger and could afford to go, I'd love to do it. Why ain't Chad Jackson teaching the turntablism and scratching? He won the DMC World title. Is he one of those DJs that seems to be no better than he was back then?

Chad Jackson came second in 1986 and won it in the following year. I've got his 1986 set on audio tape. It was never released on video.

Steve Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Chad did some good remixes though. This is good: - http://stat.discogs.com/R/39630-005.jpg Very dated obviously, but at the time it was wicked. His remix of T La Rock's "This Beat Kicks" is also superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
