I have questions.

Maybe I missed it, but I feel like they didn’t really explain what it is or how it works.

I guess it’s some kind of replacement for a record needle, that uses an accelerometer(?) or something, but I’d really like more details.

Also (and I know nothing about DJing, so tell me if I’m being an idiot), surely using this kind of digital wireless thing (again not sure how it works) would defeat the purpose of using analog vinyl in the first place?

terrible DJing. terrible music.

I think you're talking about a whole different type of djing

beatmatch DJing conceptually is quite simple but it's not easy and it's actually very difficult to do well. matching the BPMs and fading between tunes is only the most rudimentary skill and even that is not nearly as easy as it sounds (some people can pick that up really quickly, most can't). keeping a crowd moving, re-contextualizing tunes, creating a story, keeping innovative, and staying on top of the music are some of the more mid level skills and they're very hard/impossible to teach.


This. Having done some DJing, it's a lot harder than it first appears, even if you can match beats - you need to keep the crowd going and have an (almost!) encyclopaedic knowledge of the tunes in your box to know what will fit next.

I love how Worf is DJing in the back.

I'd be really curious to know if there's anything more dumb than DJing or whatever we'd like to label this activity. I'm at a loss, I'll try to think of something.


Check out that video of Michael Winslow makin' typing writer noises.

I'd be really curious to know if there's anything more dumb than DJing or whatever we'd like to label this activity. Wait, I've got it. Collecting barbie dolls is pretty dumb. But no, there's got to be something that blows even that out of the water. I'm at a loss, I'll try to think of something.
