TBearOne8III Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 you guys read this book yet? i forget how i stumbled across it. but, its about how djs influenced the evolution of gear. the author goes over some classic gear and how djs helped create them. like the skratch pikiz involvement with vestax, and the development of the rane 54. I haven't finished it yet, but it is interesting. heres the link to the pdf e-book: https://tinyurl.com/y7ph3p3r I must warn you.... the book reads like a scholarly article and there are no pictures. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honna Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I read this last year, interesting stuff. Foodstamp just did an exhibit 'Designed From Scratch' https://nostalgiaking.com/2018/09/10/designed-from-scratch-the-history-of-the-dj-mixer/ I think there are a few photos on his instagram https://www.instagram.com/djfoodstamp33 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
