thats another reason i am done. i refuse to evolve and carry around a fucking laptop and CDs. djing is about vinyl to me. period. i refuse to download mp3s and play shitty sounding (quality wise) digital versions of tracks that analog producers intended to be analog. a trained ear can hear the difference in the sound. the frequency response is terrible on some of the crap i hear these laptop djs playing. i don't even like going to clubs anymore. a lot of things built me up to this.
having that thing you got is pretty cool though if you don't like carrying around 3 flight cases of records. i have to admit carrying that vinyl around as small as i am is a chore, but its a labot of love. going to the stores every week, riffling through bins, looking for tracks, buying vinyl, being in the community, its all changing. i'm not hip to it anymore.
i remember taking a track to get pressed on acetate a year back or so and the guy asked me why i just didnt burn it to cd and play it.
i just like the feel of vinyl, and seeing the grooves and reading the track that way.
i'm stubborn. i refuse to conform.
