With all the new dj software and midi controllers coming out these days I was pretty impressed when I saw what the new Pioneer DJM 900 nexus is capable of. There is something so nice about getting what you need straight from the mixer without the need of a computer. However this mixer is also pretty amazing when pairing up with a laptop. The DJM 900 nexus is equipped with a high-end 24bit/96khz sound card that can simultaneously input/output stereo sound from 4 inputs/outputs. The 900 nexus is also Traktor Scratch certified. I see this mixer being an all around good investment and have no doubt it will continue as an industry standard.
Take a minute and watch James Zabiela show you what this mixer is capable of.
This Saturday November 20th. The Badassness crew (Curt Becker & Narcosis) and I Kevin Terry will be opening for Timo Maas at Europe Nightclub. This will be Timo’s first appearance in St. Louis so I’m hoping for a warm welcome. This will be my first gig in a large scale club so I’m pretty excited and looking forward to it. I hope you can make it out. If you do get there early. This event starts at 9 and goes to 3am. Pre sale tickets available here until Saturday evening.

I must say this would have to be the coolest piece of DJ equipment. Not only would it be fun to use but people would come out just to see you use it. It’s a visual display with out the VJ. I think a lot of people would pay some pretty big bucks for this setup. As far as I know this is only a prototype and is not for sale. I haven’t found any other information on the display. If you find out about anything new on this please leave a comment. It said to visit http://www.pablomartin.com/emulator/ for more info but I have yet to get the site to load. Interesting…
Update: Looks like you can get in contact with someone about this product here: http://www.tokenexperience.com/, Thanks Yöyen.
Looking for quality loops, samples, one hits, and more? Sounds/To/Sample would be the place to start. They have very nice demos of each sample album so you can get a good idea of what’s in the sound library before you buy it. No more guessing. Sounds/To/Sample also offers a ton of free downloads from selected sound libraries. Check it out. Tell me what you think or suggest other sites you like.
Finally after 6 months of silence a new mix is born. I’m excited to announce it was debuted Friday May 14th from Berlin, Germany on ISO’s CRAZYFRIDA Podcast. This mix features some amazing tracks from my new obsession Soul Clap. You will find very little techno or minimal in this mix. Instead it has house written all over it. I’ve found I am slowly making my way back to house music. With each mix comes less of the techno sound. I’m not trying to veer away from the techno/minimal sound it just seems to be a natural progression. So I hope you enjoy the new mix and I would love to hear your feedback.
