them's using them as musical instruments, & i tend to think they play live to get their rorks arfin' and to have fun, which might be what john always thinks. or whatever..
some dj's play live to get money, or free drugs, or girls, or guys, or more drugs, or because they can't stand NOT being the center of attention, and because THEIR music IS THE SHIT so don't deny the skills of EVERY FUCK DJ out there.. haha..
but kid capri rocks. and there's of course a ton more that aren't near favorite or something fishy like tuna fish.. or sushi, that's fishy. unless it has egg instead of fish. that's farked in it's bononoclopa>>> wee all knew, little little people, laughing about us day & night. we could always fark them the foke up with just a little static shock; were they such sensitive electronic devices? i thought they was lil' people, like them.. borrowers or littles or supimim supplement.. borrowers piss me off. john goodman to save the day; social lubricant. fark bono; the edge..

Think about it...have you ever tried to spin a keyboard on a set of 1200s?

Just want to learn more about it. It just seems weird to spin a record, when you could be sequencing it LIVE on your keyboard. Could somebody fill me in on why this is and possible sites that explain Djing.
Thanks

they o it because it allows them to manipulate the music even further....instead of using keyboards to play notes, they use songs that have already been made and realeased, and reagrrange, edit, and scratch those songs into, hopoefully, something greater than the origional song...the dj 's goal (at most) is to provide the listener a greater experience than the source songs, keep the dancefloor happinen, keep the energy up, make people enjoy themselves, make the songs flow into one another, and provide goos sonic enjoyment...the music-producer's goal is to express themselves.
this is jsut the way i see things

A: It's not. It's simply manipulated recordings of other people's stuff.
I can't remember which thread it was, but I kind laid out my point of view on the DJ/strap-on concept, and it still seems to hold. Anybody else remember which thread that was? I enjoy DJ's showcasing good music, especially some of the archivist/manipulators that I know, but it ain't the same as somebody doin it for real, representin their own sounds and arrangements.
