Anyone can beatmatch, that doesn`t make you a good DJ.

Jah Shaka plays with one deck. And he fukkin rules the roost.
But when mixing becomes a simple job of programming a CD player it loses any organic human feel and just beomes robotic - like when you hear stuio mixes done on computers for mix CD - fuking rubbish compared to a real DJ mixing in one take, warts and all.

You can keep yer CD players, imo.
