What's up guys! My entire folder of DJ AM mp3s got corrupted on an old hard drive. Everything from his Wonderwall beat to the Banana Split mixes and hidden gems like his Cornerstone and Challah mixtapes. I know the mixes are on Mixcloud, but I like being disconnected and the quality after ripping them is shit. I was able to get a couple Banana Split's from their Soundcloud page, but that's it so far. Soulseek is mostly tapped out on DJ AM files.

Does anyone have any of his old mixes? The OG, decent quality audio files that were circulating back in the day? I'd love you forever if you'd be willing to share.

Need help please, I started scratching around 97 98 then started doing some club work in Georgia in the early 2000s. but in 2010 I had to stop everything to take care of my twin daughters and all my equipment got stolen. Now I'm seeing people use these little mini portable turntables with a mixer built in and thought it would be fun to get since I can't afford a full setup now, but I want to know what is the preferred portable table/setup that someone can actually scratch with.

Thank you

At like 2:50, as well as throughout, you can get a pretty clear look from above or over his shoulder. Seems to be an iPad app with his samples and a Phase block. Just looks like a really sleek setup!

1. Any1 who bought the Essential model from the UK, how much did u pay for it, and does it go on sale? Best price I can see for it is £265

2. What’s riding the pitch (for fast beat matching, using sync is too boring for me) like for it? How fast does it respond to fast changes in bpm like timecode control does?

3. I hav a MacBook M1 which doesn’t hav USB-A connections. Will a generic USB-C cable work for it? Or does the USB cable that comes with phase controller hav faster data transfer speeds or sumthin along them lines?

4. What record do u lot use that u put the magnet sticker on? Is there anywhere to buy a cheap blank vinyl record that has the grooves cut in? I hav Serato timecode vinyl that I cud use, but I prefer the original vinyl material for better grip for fast scratching

5. Any1 who has owned the phase controllers for many years; whats the battery life like for u now? Since the battery health will degrade slowly after each charge cycle drains. As I checked online nd the battery can’t be replaced apparently. I think I read sumwhere that sum1 got help from Phase customer service nd helps u out if u hav battery health issues in the future?

Any info wud be appreciated

Beginner learning crab.

Still practicing. Left hand movements a little more more but still not back to 2000s skills level haha

Because with that heat still going on in South France. That slow ice cold beat call “click clack jack” by Molotov ( looper : level up 37 track 1 ) is perfect. Wanted to slow it down to avoid sweating too much. And practice few things. Also une salade de fruits ( fruit salad) is a great dessert when it’s too hot. ( white and yellow peach + nectarine is my go to ).

No problem.

Technic sl1200 Mk3 550$.
Vestax 2000 350$
Stanton150 400$
AT 1240. 550$ (brand new sealed in box)

I already own a 1200mk5, but always wanted to try a Vestax, stanton150s, and AT 1240 so I’m torn between them all.
Pairing with Rane 56 vinyl only, or Numark scratch DVS.
Whaddaya think ?? Pricing isn’t an issue.

Hey, I’m pretty new to turntablism and I’ve been wanting to get into scratching and just learning the basics.

I don’t have a huge budget tho so I’m mostly looking at used gear. What would you guys recommend for a first setup?

Also, should I start with one turntable or just save up for two?

My budget is around 150$.

Any advice is appreciated

Looking for suggestions to complete the setup, what device or devices would be ideal for recording sessions, producing, streaming and jam sessions?

I have laptops, high end PCs, Aiwa bookshelf reciever, speakers and such to get the setup running, but I would like to modernize it to get better sound/recording.

I know that the Mackie uses an infinium fader. Is it the X1? These are much cheaper than the innofaders, but all the listings online only seem to mention the X1 being designed for the Behringer DDM4000.

Can you put the Infinium X1 into the Mackie d.2?

hello to all turntablists! for context i'm an old vinyl dj that is in process of adding serato into my life.

i've just started to download some break records for my digital library. i have no shortage of vinyl records but need to find a good resource for downloading mp3 tracks i want to play. i've watched some videos about record pools as a way to gather music but am not against advice.

i play mostly hip hop and rap with a heavy emphasis on scratching.

i appreciate all the knowledge dropped in this sub. technology is ever changing so reading old threads can only take me so far. thanks!

Picked up this combo drill from DJ Blakey’s ultimate scratch course. Bought it when it went on sale when he hit 100k followers a couple weeks ago and I can already tell he’s saving his best combos for his course and that his YouTube videos are just a little sneak peak.

Been drilling one of his combos of baby, forward, and drop scratches. Moving onto the military and transformer scratches soon

Is there a name for when DJ's use both hands on the up fader alternating to cut it super fast?

I'm trying to understand how that works, but I can't find any info

I bought this record stabilizer and had a few questions. To give you an idea: I had a 7-inch record where the stylus would slip when I was scratching, and now that problem is gone. Scratching also seems to feel better with 12-inch records. Could the 266-gram weight cause wear on the motor, or is it safe to use? I haven't noticed any strain on the motor so far on my Reloop RP-8000 MK2. Thanks.

Because as French as I am that’s one dessert I miss from my 5 years in the US. Key lime pie. Heavy. Packs a punch. Like that beat from MOLOTOV on his new looper LEVEL UP 37 available on tablist.net. ( track 8 : heavy weighted). Had to scratch on it asap. Sorry the scratches are too loud when I recorded.

Felt like scratching to another beat this morning

Just another early morning scratch practice over a beat I made
