The downside:All DJs end up playing the exact same songs they all downloaded from message boards and internets.Fuck that I am going RECORD SHOPPING FOR NEW SHIT this weekend.Holler if you agree with me?
Back in the late 90's when CD DJ's were first starting to take off, we had dudes that would come into the shop and pay 2-3 bucks a 12" to "rent" the shit and would take it home to rip it and would bring it back a few days later.
All DJs end up playing the exact same songs they all downloaded from message boards and internets.
Fuck that I am going RECORD SHOPPING FOR NEW SHIT this weekend.
Holler if you agree with me?
it depends on the crowd, but for some, hell yea.
that being said, i think parties are better despite this. without getting into a thesis here, i think that party-goers were a step ahead of djs pre-serato. everyone has access to instant-music via the internet, so its only right that djs have a leg-up on hitting people with stuff they probably haven't heard...even if other djs have the same shit.
also, the new shit (or now shit) is for djs to not only have other people's (good) remixes, but to also have a decent catalogue of their own blends/mashups/etc. quick-mixing is basically the norm for hip hop (based) parties, so if you are playing whatever the current hot song is, its nice to have your own blend to mix-in. also, if you are playing remixes all night, people will inevitably come up and ask you if they are your own. if you made some, at least you dont have to lie.
that being said, crooklynclan.net has some club heat...although you are gonna have to sort through over 500 remixes to find it...and then pay for it.
I BEEN buyin' records! I mean If you're gonna make a remix or something too it sounds a lot better to use the wax to lay it down anyway. If it's a dope tune I still gotta have the record. The dollar bin has all kinds of good rap joints you can't DL too. Pool yo' resources!
yeah, i never quit buying records, either: a. because i still want the instrumentals and acapellas for blends and b. i just like having them (i just don't like carrying them)... one of my main justifications to my wife for spending the dough on serato was "i won't need all these records anymore", but i never even slowed down on buying them, i just don't buy 2 of the same one anymore lol
Finally a Serato thread that gives us poor record label guys a little hope. Thanks.
And while we are at it record buyers, be on the look out for this platter dropping in late September. If you download it you still have to cope it for the dope cover art from a certain casual male. Thanks M**e!

I'm surprised this never took off.
HELL. YES.
Less about what songs you have, but what you do with them.
The game should reach a new level of secret squirrelry.
What's a "record" ?
Mislabel'd MP3s!
LAPTOP PRIVACY FILTERS SON.

Ayuh. This becomes particularly clear when folks are doing a 2x4 with one person on Serato and one person on records.

THAT's what I'm talkin' bout!
I just got my laptop yesterday and I'm alrady my mind garden is alread schemin'
mislabeling mp3's/mp3 secret squilery is WHATS UP.
but yo...what about when they stop making records?
and to quote to catchdini:
so many under-the-radar joints that'll have the next serrato jag-off shook.
I'll always support the labels I like and I'll always buy raers.
Translation: hit up P.Ro for the .wav files.
