As I mentioned earlier an updated version is due out shortly, could be worth waiting.

So I just thought I'd revive this thread to announce that the book I mentioned several months ago in this discussion is now available for pre-order, and will be coming out in a few months! I'll post a separate thread on its official release date when we have one (and will probably have a book party in LA that I'll announce here as well) but in the meantime you can take a peek here: http://www.amazon.com/DJ-Culture-Mix.../dp/1623560063
'All Crews Muss Big Up Journeys through jungle / drum & bass culture' by Brian Belle-Fortune

The best book to read when starting to mix is 'How to DJ (properly)'....it's not even a contest, this is THE book you need in your life.
When I read that book it changed my life, how I look at mixing and has been the one thing I've told people to check out when they say they are getting into mixing music.
