Hamp & Ella
Hey everybody, I have a question. When I started to build my cd collection, I tried to get a little bit of everybody so I don't have a ton of cd's by single artists. I would like to fill out some artists a little more, specifically Ella Fitzgerald and Lionel Hampton. I know that there can be a lot o...

You know what they say, if you're nervous just picture everybody in their underwear. If they're already in their underwear, picture them with clothes on. I wish I had something to contribute, but I've never DJed at an exchange other than our own. Besides, there's a ton of good advice already on this...

I personally wanted to start djing because I was tired of the music that was being played. At that point in time, our major dj who ran pretty much every night was done with swing and just put up the same songs every week and used the same playlists. So I started collecting music and djing just to ha...

I put often a lot because the music here is horrible most of the time. So I usually do more socializing than dancing. But I have to dance and I try to pick the best of the bad ones to dance too. Plus at exchanges with people I don't see very often, I'll dance with them because I don't get the opport...

I think they're pretty good for some of their more basic stuff. Like the Ellington Blanton Webster and The Basie Complete Decca discs. I also got one of my favorite albums of all time Charlie Christians genius of the electric guitar from them. It's not a bad deal once, twice would be stretching it f...

I was just talking with the organizer of the exchange we're putting on here in a little while and this topic came up. I personally like to listen to local djs and see what the scene is like in their town. That's not to say that they should give the sets away to bad djs just to keep it local though. ...
