Birthday coming up, and I figure I owe myself another Mosaic set. In addition to the Hines set, which is on its way to me at the moment... so far I'm pondering Coleman Hawkins, Lunceford, Goodman, and Armstrong. Purely from a DJing perspective - does any of these particularly shine out over the othe...

Lol. Ok, well, I guess this is just something we disagree on but... First of all, how could it strip a style of music of any potential swing dancing just by putting a modern club beat on it? The answer's in the question here - it does so by removing the original rhythms which made the music what it...

I'm in a similar position - I've wanted a touch-screen DJing setup since I first saw Minority Report ;) - but the iPad has two main disadvantages for me - previewing (I'm holding out for a better solution than using a splitter), and software - Djay is (to me) the best of a bad bunch.

For headset mics, a straw poll of a number of instructors is they favor something without a body pack over better sound quality so we'll be purchasing the Samson Airline 77's. The trade-off is the mics sound a bit tinny and tend to be prone to feedback. We want to keep the volunteer instructors hap...

I've recently been stalked by the emusic people twitter - public messages and DMs asking me what my specific problems with their site are. Because they want to help me. I don't have the patience to explain why their new site is so slow to load and annoying to navigate. Someone needs to tell them th...
