If I had to run to the bathroom, or something I would throw one of them records on, they were usually 10-15 minutes long and had a bunch of tracks in one long continous mix... i have around 20 "Dj Only" records like that...remember the double A, B, C, ect,, and the mixmaster ones....lol...I have one with the "roof is one fire" mixed out of some freestyle, pretty sick. shit right there...
I got one for ya's, who can finsh this lyric: "Freeze, I'm Al baker............................................. .....................................?

It ends with "gimme all your money...".....oh I use 4 1200's btw. Using 2 to me is like being naked.

I guess I must be a loser by your definition too?..oh well.

Word em up Tony, you told him. Aparently I got to this thread too late. I guess I'm a loser too, I hold a bachelors degree in accounting and I work for a major publicly traded electronics company and I'm a DJ. I say we give Mr. X a good old fashioned beatdown by DJs. But Kenny beat us to it and banned him.

How could I have slept on this thread for so long? How does someone that's already getting paid to be a mobile dj not know about BPMs? How could Mr. X say some of the things he said about djs and expect anything else he would say to get taken seriously? Those were some of the most ignorant comments I've ever seen.

True. Mr X hit an all time low in this thread.
I mean seriously , does he not realize that most DJ's have full time corporate jobs as well and mostly just DJ because they actually like to do it.
Is he really that stupid ....

I simply just love to create mixes. It's just something I enjoy to do.
However I'm not paying my mortgage by mixing. Those DJ's that can do that , I say congrats to them for their success in doing something they love and getting paid to do it ....

Nowadays the way things are, most recording artists aren't being able to live off their music either. I wouldn't be surprised if djs are getting paid more than most recording artists nowadays.

LOL, Mr. D was more of a music entertainer then an actual DJ.
No shame in that though since that is probably what his contracted jobs called for anyway ...

Speaking as a real mixing DJ, none of my material is kept in a BPM catagory anyway. Thats why pitch was invented ... LOL
Any DJ that only mixes material of a common BPM is really limiting himself on what can or could be mixed together ...
