so far I enjoy hardtrance haha, but love listening to hip-hop mix tapes, not those commercial ones ; those funk type... Currently listening to DnB also, checking it out

no la... more like unsure where I wanna be yet, still exploring

last time before I paused mixing for turntablism research was RnB, those commercial ones ; I just got comfortable with mixing hardtrance only... still rusty ; I just got me tables for 35 days only still damn happy what about you?

yes... miss it a lotttttttttttttttttttttttttttt ; last time blur dunno what to do with it, now get TT know the beauty of CDJ also

hey hey guys, I'm a little lost as to order a full case for both TTs and mixer, or just 1 TT and 1 mixer

and gotta confirm the real final price Ideaz can offer edy Choong, might be able to get it by the end of Oct.

Bukit Bintang there have a few places.

since I started a little cluelessly, I will share my experience and my personal views on getting started...

1st off, I don't think it's savvy to pay thousands of ringgits to a tutor when there is a huge resource on the internet on how to beat-match, scratch, read keys, etc. Just takes a little time to find those articles written by veteran DJs aimed at guiding beginners... I felt cheated when I realized all the material given to me by my tutor was just copied and pasted, then printed and renamed.

But bear in mind I'm not talking all tutors aren't worth the money, so far there is one that I think is worth your money ; as he covers traditional hardware fundamentals all the way to CDJ then digital softwares. But think about this also, by paying a tutor what are u aiming for ? You wanna get the basics down quickly with a guide right? Why not learn on your own 1st? I paid so much to understand that, we pay so that we have a a fixed schedule we have to follow in discipline as a step into this new passion/hobby, and also get access to higher standard equipments that we can't afford at that time.

sheet, type too much ; to illustrate me point, there are ppl who can DJ without even going under tutors ; but probably take longer when compared to those that went under tutors. I learned mixing from a tutor using his CDJ800 & DJM600 for some months, and as a beginner I felt clueless when so much access was given to me ; it's confusing, that's why I went ahead and saved some $ to get my own pair of traditional turntables. From there I then only understood what beauty both holds. But a proper tutor imho will teach u from the oldschool gears, so just find a good one ; or just don't bother.

Whether you wanna pay thousands of ringgits to a tutor and get the benefits of good hardware access, proper guidance into the fundamentals etc. Or you would just use that money invest in a set of nice gear, and get started. I can't emphasize enough how much you can get out from the internet nowadays, tutorials, articles, etc.

and like Choong said, Djing is ironically not a cheap hobby/subject... But anything that deals with music electronically is never cheap. Lastly, if I type too much or somehow offended anyone my apologies... since I don't usually type this much...

be great if it can become a side-option though, like spinning in events on and off. Like Vince, so awesome.

I DLed the pjoo thingie, gotta go back and check it out. Hed Kandi awesome, gonna mix his songs soon... hopefully my 1st 10 min mix can share.

wei wei! not yet, I havent got my procase done yet laaaaaaaa~ Probably can get SSL 1st haha

can also... but I need time to plan how to carry my tables... and I confirm get SSL from Ideaz edy, gonna email him up now gotta build my list edy and hopefully get good enough to spin some fresh gigs... if not I can never earn enough to get Rane/Pioneer mixers...

sure sure! wow, if I can touch the legendary Rane scratch mixer...

wow syok, I study in TOA Sunway, can go meet u when you spinning there

I'm from East MY, but family moved here cos my bro and me both study here anyhow ; and truth be told, back in hometown trying to even learn DJing is near impossible... all we do there is guitar this guitar that, drum this drum that, bass this bass that... so I end up in a band playing alternative in high school... but true passion is Djing ; glad I came here

my car is damn old school, so driving down to KL is a bit of a concern... break down quite frequently le... bring tables somemore I worry, unless someone can arrange transport I don't mind pay a bit also

owhhh, I havent bodek my ex tutor to let me in to bar celona for free yet, clk!

the last I checked was 1.8-1.9k what type of hip hop? just pure mixing or with the old school scratching fundamentals?

you can check out DJ Vajra in youtube then his myspace for his hip hop mixtape ; I recommend his Hydef mixtape, he blends scratching, beat juggling into his hip hop mixtape... if your hip hop is what I think it is, then you'll definitely love the mixtape.

hey choong, u mind adding me in MSN ? I needa hola up Ideaz for real already this time. Confirmed.

make sure you ok with it then only give ma, I understand some people like to keep their msn list clean I'm still waiting for a reply from him, hopefully soon. At first was thinking whether mixer or SSL... SSL made more sense... at least I can start building mixtapes....

Sabah KK The last time I went to a club was The Beach ; I heard it's renamed already... And clubbers there, some of them think it's a mosh pit

yea, I think its renamed to Bed already... it's famous because it's close to the shore I suppose, has an aquarium inside ; I wonder how the fish deal with the loud vibrations really...

yeaps... hope can arrange something somehow
