At first sight it looks the gear is off, no spinning circles on the cdjs or vu meter action.

Amazing. #1 !
Impressive!
Epic mixing,
lol.
Haven't you heard?
Pioneer released their new line of environmentally friendly CDJ's a while ago... They help save power whilst running by not giving the dj any feedback at all (;
Saw this on facebook a few days back, even worse than the Steve Angello clip, at least he has his gear plugged in... http://www.dumpert.nl/mediabase/1644...akzuchtig.html
When people at the top of the game do this it makes us all look like fools. He best have a decent explanation or shame on him!
Well, I'd say it's crap, but since pop music can have some of their biggest names preform all playback and still have big pop acts that actually do play live and do it good get all the respect they deserve, you just have to make it obvious to the audience that the DJ:s not actually mixing anything. Just as it's quite obvious when a concerts all playback. We just need to separate the boys from the men so to speak, I think Guetta would have huge crowds even if people knew it was pre-recorded...Quote:

don't be so sure - a dnb artist by the name of Mistabishi was caught doing the same thing and basically got dropped from one of the biggest dnb labels and hasn't gigged since.Quote:

Tour Dates: (none) - Mistabishi is NOT available to DJ at your wedding, bar mitzvah or D+B Clubnight.
I think the level of famousness is different between the two.Quote:

I really want to believe those CDJs are off, but couldn't it just be the angle of the camera at the displays and the lighting? I remember there was a pic like this of another DJ and the CDJs turned out to actually be on and it was the angle of the camera, just saying.

Even at any angle i think you would see the 2 orange loop buttons.

or the iconic orange and green cue and play buttons, that are just taunting youQuote:

I don't know either way but I'm not convinced it was off in that video yet.Quote:

There was a thread on r/djs that showed a pic of someone mixing on CDJ1000s and a DJM800 which looked off but on closer inspection it turned out to be the camera and angle.
It's probably off and looks off but you never know.
He sure turns me on, i'm positively tumescent thinking about him...
I had to google that. ;)Quote:

What a joke, clearly too busy to be creative...

As much as I'd love to say he's just posing and playing a pre recorded mix, I'm much more inclined to think his gear is actually ON. You can actually see a red and greenish light around the cue and play buttons. The fact that there's no spinning circle could also mean there's no disc in the cdj.
