Convergent technologies and it's impact on DJing

Post by alz » Sat Jan 19, 2013 7:13 pm

Writing an essay on digital technology and how it's taking over DJing.

Was wondering if anyone has any useful links to articles or interviews about this that I could use, I'm trying to gather all the research I can at the moment.

Any help will be appreciated thank you.

Here`s a link to a thread on books about electronic music and therefore, indirectly at least, DJing.

http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=265369

You also might want to consider live sequencing and whether to exclude it from the definition of `DJ` or not. By live sequencing I mean not actually spinning disks (or talking over them, as some Jamaicans might consider it), but use of sequencers to play music that is edited and dubbed live. Goth-Trad and Bass Clef are prime modern examples of this, as was `acid house` back in the `80s.
