With the dj putting on a lackluster performance and blaming the equipment ffor skipping and a deadbeat MC Big Shug putting in a half hearteed effort the crowd just didn’t like it. Apperently to entertain the crowd Premier resorted to belting out some tunes and [...]

Lindsey Lohan is a dj

Looks like Lindsey Lohan is a dj now. Recently at a posh party in New York she was seen dominating the decks. Among her selections were the Beatles, AC/DC and a collection of other hits from the sixties and seventies. The hot lead from Herbie seems to have a wide variety of music taste. Hat tip

DeeJay writers for fucks sake write something

I have to admit I am not the best damn writer in the world but hey I am not a professional writer either. I am continually stunned by the sheer lack of creativity and breadth of topics that the proaudio press can come up with. A quick search for Numark reveals just what I am [...]

Shure used for the Superbowl

There was a large number of performers at the superbowl making the frequency management difficult for the wireless microphones. Fiuurthermore there were over 2k frequencies in use which led to the choice of Shure’s SM58, Beta 58, and Beta 87A capsules.” All vocals were live and the SHure setup worked exceptionally well.

The AKG K55's are a great value for those looking to add headphones to their recording studio and have great bass for mid-end headphones. Go with these to start out. then buy something more upscale when your on MTV (just kidding, go independent!). Josh www.excess-supply.com

I have used ever turntable out there, and when my set was stolen, I did not have 2000.00 to replace them. I went to TopDjGear and ordered this set. It seemed to be the most table for the money. Well, I like them better than anything I have ever put my hands on. I would not trade them for anything.

If looks were everything it'd be the Pioneer 600. Unfortunately there are more to mixers than just looks. This mixer feels just like the 600, but with a different curve on the level sliders (quiet until 3/4 and then full on at 7/8th's). The sound is very tinny, and the effects are just crap. It's not a bad mixer if you just want something to practice on, but I would avoid if you're looking for good sound quality, or durability.

I've had these head phones for a long time. They are rugged and have held up to most of my home use. I don't like using them when I am out at a lub but they are great headphones for the bedroom sets.
