I like this idea cause I have very little knowledge of DJ'ing and producing but I am going to start DJ'ing when I get too frustrated at producing so its almost like I'm killing 2 birds with 1 stone, but anyways. Looking forward to this being completed. Also I appreciate the work that will go into this.

Again, thanks!

Bumping this thread, big up to legend4ry for this thread, would help me out when its completed since I'm gonna be learning how to DJ soon.

this is such a good idea, big ups legend4ry

If youll be on AIM later Ill get you all the articles me n JFK got together last time this was discussed, I still say there isnt alot to teach via text.

Very good idea

looking forward to this

Fair enough, just noticed the "** - Discussion lead rather than a 'how to'" mark.
Most DJs I know (myself included) tend to rock a bit harder at least a little liquored up.

im interested in this,
ill happily contribute too

Never understood this. You wouldn't go do a normal job pissed up and risk ruining it, so why do DJ's see it as more acceptable? Just get pissed after you play!

A DJ bible without headphones homie?
