How to spin.

The debate continues: get a deck, or spin with just my laptop? I recently rocked a house party with just my laptop. Scratches and all. But I won't lie, I felt like a square. A HUGE square. I think a part of DJing is KNOWING you're cool while you do what you do. I always put on a show, but MOVING while I spin seems to be a real draw. So, ...I don't know. It comes down to funds. Do I have the funds to get a sufficient deck? 

Pioneer isn't all that reliable (though they're VERY good in the beginning), and I started off with a Nu-Mark. I can be rough with my decks (I cut with FORCE!, lol), so it could be a matter of me learning how to take better care of my stuff. At the same time, I know I'm not the only one. Shouts to Dieselboy and The Crystal Method. 

Fuck it. I'll get a deck. Pioneer DDJ-SB3. I don't care if they're discontinued! I'll find one...!




"...and I won't stop abusing it!"
