Loopmasters Guy J. Artist Series Give-Away

·0 comments·

We already informed you about the new concept from Loopmasters, their Artist Series. It’s an evolution of the DJ Mixtools series. Now artists release their own music as tracks but also as separate stems and individual samples. This way DJ’s get content for their sets and for example new controllers like the Kontrol F1 from Native Instruments. Perfect content for the Remixdecks in Traktor, we think. The first release in the new Artist Series is the Transitions EP from Guy J. And the cool thing is we are giving away three EP’s!

Pioneer CDJ-2000nexus Laidback Luke performance

·0 comments·

Man, what a fuss these past weeks since Pioneer revealed the CDJ-2000nexus to the public. A fantastic upgrade form the first version. However one feature shook the DJ scene, and created two opposing sides. The younger DJ’s welcomed the new ‘SYNC’ feature. The slightly older DJ’s were appalled by this feature. “Now anyone can pose as a DJ! Just hit the sync button!” Without taking any side on this matter, the discussion went on for days, weeks. If you want to read more about it, just Google it and you will find lots and lots of editorial thoughts on the ‘Sync fucntion discussion’. Or, … you could watch Laidback Luke doing a performance ont he Nexus!
