i just picked this up a couple days ago. at first i was like "ewww... bt's
gone pop!" and i still think that's true, but it's growing on me. he still
has an amazing way with production and attention to detail. so even though
there's only a few or 4 songs i really like, i still appreciate the sound.
the soul coughing guy annoys the fuck out of me though (sorry, i know
that's probably blasphemy to some). yeah, so i'd sum it up with: great
production, mediocre music.
> Nine Inch Nails. Duh! I thought everybody knew that.
*sigh*... uncalled for.
> 2) Don't buy used (unless they're Technics from what I hear)
it seems that the more people i ask, the more tell me "get technics, no
matter what." at first i thought this was just bogus snobbery, but now i'm
not so sure. is there anyone out there who has tried technics and, say,
gemini pt-2000's, and thinks they are comparable? how about the numark
TT-1's?
one more dj equipment question: has anyone tried to mix on one of those
dual cd player things? are they worth getting? i played with one once,
don't know what kind, and had a hell of a time beat-matching, but maybe i
wasn't using it right. if anyone has suggestions for good brands/features,
i would be obliged.

okay, you MUST alert us when this becomes available. please. thank you.
finally, i saw mixmaster morris (one of the best idm-ish djs out there)
spin at Soma (in boulder, co) last night. it was pretty good, but sort of
relentlessly downtempo. i always have trouble dancing to that stuff for
more than an hour without almost falling asleep. but i must say, he has an
amazing ability to flawlessly blend genres and different sounds. check him
out if you're into that sort of thing.
yes yes ya'll.

It's worth buying if you, for some unknown reason, enjoy (or just get high by) coasting down desolate interstates at 2 am, soaking in the dark scenery and flying through starscapes illuminated by occasional streetlamps. If you want to feel likened to a haunted space vessel hovering over the rushing asphalt, merging and floating with fellow motorists, blurring time and mentality, and only coming off it when you turn off the stereo and park in your driveway. But don't listen to it during the day, it will only freak you out.
