One side to the DJ`ing world which does not get recognition is the hunt for the new sound. I spend at the minimum a few hours a day searching, listening and looking for the sound I want or a newer sound I like to blend with the music I already own and love.

It's hard work to keep ahead and original in this vinyl fronteir.

Yes very good response voorheez, and that is only the start of mixing, after you have began to recognise what is involved for a good mix, you then have to add a little extra to your set, this is what makes a dj different to another one. Because there are many dj that play the same genre, for example at DA on saturday...

On a more positive note well done to Simon Pitt... your set last night in Dance Academy... it probably would of made Mr EG himself proud! - Nice to see my recent fav's in Mindcontroller 2003 and Wildstyle Generation Part 2 was how your kicked things off! What a reaction the crowd made to those!

there was a line up of about 5-6 (i cant remeber) djs all playing very similur music, but having there own individual style and techniques is what makes them good djs.
Blinding set by simon pitt! and the others were very good aswell, i dont think some of these less known djs get the recognition they deserve.

Yeah... I personally think there is a problem at DA with how the time is allocated to each DJ for these nights when there are many. Of course, it's not my place to tell a club what to do and I dare try as they work hard at DA and do offer a class night... however giving 4/5 people 1/2 hour each, one person 1 hour and the last 3 an hour between should be changed to rotating each person round over more than one night and give everyone at least an hour each.

Steve Lidd was pretty good though... keeping it uplifting.
