hmm... i guess it wuz time spent and beerz consumed wif Donnie Ghosthak the kid iz just so... hmm... intune wif wut tha craft is about and he's got tha right attitude yea... that's part ov it the amount ov truly dope music being produced right now is also part ov it lotz and lotz ov nu namez that bring all manner ov ruckus and it'z just so hard 2 say no 2 them heh it'z also a wikkid outlet for emotion and thought without having 2 speak and allowz the release ov tingz that sumtimez don't get released as 4 wut i play it'z split... there's tha evil... goa, acid, tekno and nu skool and there's tha funk... mushroom house, tekno and nu skool they're kinda diverse sumtimez there's crossover "evil funk" or "funking evil" i guess but they mostly remain seperate entitiez 4 seperate occasions it'z like using a different vocabulary 2 tell the same story peace, james :Keebler:

I love to spin mostly Breaks (funky florida) Then Jungle (jump up) and House (funky disco booty) Trance (progrsive) Hip Hop and the tinyest pinch of hard house .
Well my very first insperation came form my grade 6 valintines dance DJ MCOZ (alsow one of my daycare staff). I thought it was the coolest thing seeing all the crazy ass equipment and to be able to mix music together . The posibilities just blew my mined away. However I was always so use to being kicked away from guys when ever ever I wanted to try something in a more male dominent area. Until I saw Alyia/Tidy Girls/illisha or almost any female DJ incureged me to finaly start spinning and gave the idea that yes femals can spin. Illesha inspiered me to spin jungle Then I saw Tony Failine and I fell in love Breaks Then DJ Rap who does both jungle and breaks And I love what she produces Freaky Flow's scratching with jungle Icey love his tracks and alsow the whole Florida crew of Union and Kolidiscope records, Volume , Hudi Huda , Huff , Gumbey ect Deisle Boy just fuckin amazing Flave I love funky booty house so much now! And it mixes nicely with breaks wOwWeE And the insperation keeps comin ;) Last edited by Wellbelove#1; Dec 27, 01 at 11:35 AM.

Expect to hear more about my record mixing career in the next year, for the time being I'm just in love with music and record collecting.
I firstly fell in love with the sound of [atmospheric, tech-steppin', and a lil' of old school] jungle. But I first wanted to become a dj, represent the break.beat-happy hardcore massiv, and and just play the cheese. But that never happened. So I decided to buy jungle and bjork records, my first love. I also own some downtempo, big ups to the Vancouver Upstairs and Seattle's Mother Recordings for that. And then I discovered experimental-escque tech-house-ish, ambient stuff, that just pushes my knob. And always that avante-garde(pop/alternative) crap which are pretty much remixes of beautiful artists like bjork and thom yorke. ANd I'm going to start collecting early experimental electronic orchestrated music, but so far I only know of them on cd.

I spin hip hop, breaks and jungle.
I guess I was inspired by my boss Elliott when I was working for hot wax dj's as an inspirational dancer (we taught kids dances at birthday parties, school dances, etc). I just loved to see the crowd moving to the music. So then I took up CD-DJing at school dances, house parties, etc. Eventually my brother and I bought decks and while he continued to spin school dance stuff, I got more into the party scene and starting spinning breaks and jungle. I was first REALLY inspired at Abduction 2000 by Tony Faline and Hudia Hudia. They threw down a dope set. Then about two months later I spun at this barn party in Aldergrove. I was pretty rusty and nervous 'cause I had never spun on decks infront of people. I didn't do too well but after my set, Illesha came up to me and we talked and she told me to keep working at it, and that I could be really good one day. She's pretty much the reason I didn't give up. Yea =0)

The time is near........
Myself, I spin a full spectrum of: deep trance to tribal funk. Techno(funky,minimal,tribal,rolling) Trance(Dutch,German,t,UK,tek) House(funky,US,deep,tribal,tek) Breaks(UK trance,funky) I have a little D&B(atmospheric,rolling,tribal) I am also sarting to experiment with ambience.
My influences are: Ben-13 aka 13 moons to peace, martin holloway, Primordial Nature(dj noah bouddit), gary paul, jeremy oliver, max graham, Bad Religion, The misfits. These inspirations formed the matrix. They say there comes a time in every ones life, that they will come to choose their faith, and I chose music and dance. " He stood, eyes closed, looking over the sea of flowers.......and one word came to mind: Destiny" At a time where conciousness is expanding at an incredible rate, only one path can lead to the light! F&K,killer sight!!!!!! :143: -Chris djmickey matrix aka DARK FADER :Keebler:

I noticed people are going into depth about dj'ing, however I don't quite have the time at this exact moment. I will say, that I am going to school next semester for music engineering. Anyways, I gotta run...so I'll write more in depth later. :034:

I absoulotley love tech house.
Basically a 9min song of beats you can fuck around with both decks and the mixer and it goes incredibly good to progressive trance and uplifting trance. As for time for spinning, I make time for it.... Cancel plans for it. skip work for it. miss parties for it :) - SoniK

I have never treat a female dj any diffrent then a treat a guy dj. Stop making excuses, and go out there and kick some ass. Let me guess, the reason you didn't get promoted at your last job is cause you were a girl?

Sir K said, There are a lack of dj's that are female
You said it's cause it's male dominated I said your just making excuses. _____________________ You think you get shit? Try playing happy hardcore, then come to me. Let me see.... threats over mics, getting yelled at, having entire threads dedicated to the hatred of you? Sorry if I was blunt, I still stand by what I said, although I sugar coated it for you. Face the fact, you can't blame shit all on the fact that your a "girl dj"
