Introduce Yourself - DjTechTools Roll Call!

Hi all,

Newbie to the forum, I've joined to chat with like minded individuals and to learn how to get the most out of my digital DJ set-up.

I'm currently calling myself Subaqueous for reasons I'm not quite sure of but I prefer to keep different identities for different styles that i play. I hail from Glasgow, UK and my preferred genre is house. I am currently diggin' the deeper flavoured stuff.

I've been playing out for around 14 years mainly with vinyl and cd's and I have struggled to adapt to software so far but I won't be beaten, my mission is to master Traktor so that I can get the full benefit from it.

I'm sure I'm in the right place :)

Hi,

My artistname is Certas, 19 years old and I'm from Alkmaar, The Netherlands. I'm producing now for a couple of years and I have my first release soon. I love to produce progressive house/electro house but I'm not scared of producing other genres.

If you want to know more, you're always welcome to message me :)
Wondering what kind of music I produce? Check out my soundcloud.

DJ name - None really, just call me Daniel

Location - Northern Nevada

Genre - If we're talking what I love, its electronic music... Everything from Seth Troxler to Fat Boy Slim. I have been a huge fan of EDM for a long while now. Maybe not as long as some, but I love it just as much.

I do mobile gigs on the side as a hobby, been doing that for about 10 years. It's mostly weddings and school dances. Corporate parties here and there. I do these to pay some bills, gotta do what I gotta do.

Names Matt.
Been mixing for a while now, got into producing in the last 2 years.

Techno!

Love everyone.

Hello everyone.

Im 34. Getting a traktor s2, so came on here, to learn who to mix.

I like everything melodic, across all genres, from deep house, to techno.

Im originally from Ireland, now living in the states.

Hello. I am Thumper of the North. It's been over 20 years since I first got locked in the Acid House, and only a little less since I started DJ'ing. Having stopped altogether (even buying records,) a few years ago following a massive hissy fit, I've recently started again with digital gear, although I've already dug out my beloved 1200s and started buying records again. It's a sickness really. It's been interesting coming back into it all again. Not least because I'm much more sucky than I used to be - and I sucked pretty badly to begin with.

Time was, I would have been found in a club any night of the week, either playing or dancing. Nowadays I'm happy to stop in. Mind you, plans are afoot....

Music? Oh yes. Dirty, dirty acid house and techno. Like you have to ask.

Sup y'all!

DJ Elev8 (Rodders) here from Melbourne, Australia.

Hip-Hop Turntablist first and foremost but I'm a music lover. Meaning, I don't discriminate on account of genre - if it sounds like the dopeness, I'll spin it, mix, cut, juggle and trick mix it.

Been in the game about 12 years now.. Dunno why I haven't joined earlier.

Already found this site to be really helpful reading the pinned posts on the forums.

Look forward to 'mixing' it up with everybody.

PEACE :w00t:

So, I'm actually a metalhead but I love to dabble in EDM. I like working with producing music on computers. I have a VTT-101 I wanted to use for an additional MIDI controller to my setup. I came here for some help with my setup.

My electronic influences include industrial, dark trance, dnb and dubstep.

Hi everyone! My name's Corann and I produce electronic music with FL Studio. I live near Melbourne, Australia and want to get into DJing locally, at house parties and other small events using Traktor. However, I'm aiming to practise at home for around 6 months-1 year before I start going out to DJ, simply because I know I'm not good enough yet. I'm also considering DJing as a duo, with a friend or something. I enjoy playing most forms of edm, including house, dubstep (not skrillex), dnb, hardstyle, happy hardcore, electro etc. Besides playing, I also listen to most forms of music in general, not just electronic music.

Thanks, and I hope to actively participate in this forum regularly! :)

Hello,
