Oh dude, really, quit moaning, the future will come and bite you in the ass unless you accept it.
No one is saying you gotta throw your vinyl away, but to think it will lasy forever is seriously naieve

[Craig McW]

Fark.

iPod DJing?

What next?

[AcidTrash]

That looks shit. A half way decent dedictaed techno DJ would break that in about two minutes.

[MARKEG]

yeah f that. ipod mixing - dont make me laugh.. gimmick central. i love vinyl and so do 60000000 others, plus i love REAL technology, not gimmicks. this is like ejay mixing. just plain silly.


:lol:

Just something to think about...

Most who go on about this medium only or that medium are missing the entire point. I have been out of the scene for 4 months now so i have a totally different view of things now im not directly involved.

Where the vibe was once "unity & diversity" in electronic music, it has become a "my way or the highway" kind of affair.

Having a younger sibling back in detroit has taught me a lot as well. For us older guys (who should retire or some nonsense i read that Sven wrote) we remember the movement of technology from our entry point to the present.
My sister and many of you on the other hand probably cant remember a world without the internet, mobile phones & cable TV or just plain TV. And having seen the rapid advancement of technology over a short period of time and realizing todays advancements (in our every day lives) are tied to processor speed, its not wise to think things will stay the same.

The question is can people adapt? I love vinyl but the system in place for creating it makes it far to expensive and time consuming to get basic ideas across now. If u have the time do it right do it. But if u want immediate response u have to find the quickest way to get your point across and incorporate it into vinyl setups or any setups.

"THIS IS NOT AN ATTACK ON VINYL" (from me R U Kidding?) sorry for yelling but i dont want anyone to say they misunderstood what I was trying to get across.

I can't & wont speak for anyone but I always came at this music from the standpoint that it would bring us together and we could cast off the ideas of our parents bigotry and the ideas of their age.

But what we have now is the same old same old, history repeating itself and people not prepared to adapt or grow.

We have a global network (unimaginable in my parents time) but we are more fragmented than ever, I can't (and don't try anymore) to understand.

With all kindness please take this under consideration...

Before vinyl there was reel to reel (2" 1/2", etc) and 8 track (cart they were called in the radio business) These formats died. Vinyl will not die but if an irresponsible airline losses your fav. records and then tells u to read the small print & get lost a few times maybe you'll consider adding a new skill set just in case of emergency.

Why can we not accept all forms of getting our point across? The problem is not with the medium it's with ourselves. Lack or experience and other factors (+ a youthful rebellious streak) is always present in the young.

Thats where the advancement comes from, in the young people. But temper that with an openness to the future and you get a Carl Craig, Dave the Drumer, MEG, Saunderson, Mills, Advent, Eno, Sakamoto, etc. These people and many more all have a common spirit in them, they decide what they create like it or not. And in a time when it's so easy to go your own way to see so many bow down and conform + give the scene to the money people (again) it's perplexing.

just an old man's observation...

Personally I like to mix vinyl CD's & mp3's together but thats just me being a retard by not choosing any one format in particular. I'd be mixing betamax video in to my sets if i had half the chance so why pick one? just mangle them all in together.

because then..

You can still play your whole record collection & anything that comes out in the PHUTURE!! on wax (want tactile controll.. well tactically you still have it)

You can use tracks that you have bought on CDs\albums which never ever ever came out on vinyl

You can download loads of itunes\unsigned\free netlabel stuff make your own edits and play your mates new tracks and mix em in with tracktor.

PS: I'm calling for the phrases 'way forward' & 'future of techno' to be completly nuked from existence. Its all about now.

[schlongfingers]

I've beeen waiting for Ipod pitch control for yonks - will make a huge impact when it is done properly, as in software based within the ipod itself.

[fatcollective]

i dont like mixing mp3's or cds , it SHIT, i just dont like it....IF vinyl diappears i will play live, no doubt lots of other people will aswel ;)

[gumpy green]

Oh dude, really, quit moaning, the future will come and bite you in the ass unless you accept it.

[Dirtyacid]

I really don,t like the idea of i pod dj,ing im really into technology but thats shit ipods suck I us cd & vinyl myself but im thinking of using final scratch & maybe abelton live thats decent technology and a way forward but i can,t see i pods & things of such nature will take off

[Honeey]

Seems to me it makes it way too easy for people to rip off the music especially if they make money off a gig using ripped off mp3s.

Not cool.

[AcidTrash]

If you've got an iPod you've stopped caring about music.

[dirty_bass]

If you've got an iPod you've stopped caring about music.

Man you sound like a bunch of oldies.

It`s become the new way music is distributed.

I`m sure people were saying the same thing when recordable cassettes came out.

Although, I must admit, I don`t have an ipod, and I don`t really want one.
