This sounds shameful to me - especially when (some) people spend half their lives moaning about digital DJs and Ableton sets etc.

Surely this is the laziest of the lazy?
ive heard of a local dj from here in los angeles named richard humpty vission who used to do that......pretty crappy thing to do, wonder if its because they cant mix or just too lazy
