Art of Djing and Music Part2


Um.....i feel like i am back to my ususal blog now.....Dont really worry about my life story unless it is relate with music or something.

Now, Yesterday, i wrote about Good Music and Bad Music. Also a bit about Djing so keep continue about DJing.....

Compear with 7 years ago, so many thing about "DJ" has changed. I am talking about Technology in here. It used to be only with records but now days, its getting less and less djs who plays vinyls. Most popular one now days is using CDJ. Some People still saying that "Playing Records are the best".......I understand and agree with that however.....U cant hear much difference between using Vnyls or Cds now days....thats how much CDJ improved last couple of years. CDJ can do more things than playing vinyls, for example, Direct Loop and stuffs like that which u cant do with Turntables. Only the thing is that It is still expensive!! Pionner CDJ 1000 is more expensive than buying a Mixer. Crazy!!!

Using Laptop and softwear can do more things than playing CDJ. You NO Longer need to Do Beat Mixing with them. and can do pretty much everything u want to do. Mix this tracks this part and that track.....make a Loop from this track and mix with this track...or pretty much whatever....

However.....a bit of problem i found with DJs using those softwears is that......I cant feel something like....."Emotions of DJ"
It is hard to explain but....with using computer.....everything is just perfect. Somehow, i feel like there is no Soul with that. Now, Live Sets are a bit different thing so not going to mention about that.

I saw fiar a few djs who are using softwears and some of them are really good but also to some dj i feel like...."....i like u dj with VInyls and Cds better."

Perfect Exaple is here.

Richi Hawtin. I love his style now. Using only laptops and do really crazy stuffs. Make a music from banch of different sounds from different tracks. I dont feel "Emotions" from his djing but i felt "Perfection" Thats an Art.

On The Other hand.....I difnt like to see Carl Cox using laptop. When i saw him 4 years ago.....he was only using vinyls and CDjs and I felt his Love and Passion about Music but when i saw him this time.....Thats Good Rockin Music but i didnt feel any of his Soul which i disappinted. For me Carl Cox was always "Soul Love and Passion" but saw him using laptop.......couldnt feel Soul. Thats just a Dance Music for me.

I mean....Everyone has a different view with this so there is no good or bad and Technologies are still improving and changing right now so cant imagine what we gonna see in a few years time but i can gurantee that there will be no more DJs who only plays vinyls thats for sure....
