I agree with you to some extent, but I think you might be a bit too quick in your judgment.

I am a DJ with a dozen years of experience in several clubs and venues in Toronto and Montréal. I know how to match a beat with my ear, and I do it well.

However, I don’t own turntables, and neither does the club where I DJ. Therefore, I’ve decided to try something that, previously, I thought I would never do: use a laptop to play songs.

This story is about my transition from “regular” DJing to laptop DJing, and what I’ve gone through in doing so.

It’s far from ideal, and I think I made that reasonably clear in my post. iTunes would never be my first choice as a DJ application.

Anyway, thanks again for your comment. Maybe some day I can change your mind about laptop DJs in clubs.

This is the reason with ever increasing frequency you go out and think to yourself “wow this dj really sucks.”

its because the DJ is some bar owners cousin who downloaded a trial version of some crappy software and pulled out their cool headkandy headphones…so sad
