Introduce Yourself - DjTechTools Roll Call!

[MisterMoleyMole]

I don't think I have ever intrduced myself.

My name is Gavin and I'm from Holmes Chapel in the UK (its kind of near manchester ish)

I have recently started to get interested in the Digital DJng scene after djing as a hobby on 1210's and CDJ's for the last 8 years ish. I mainly spin techno but like to dabble in anything with energy and pace. I used to spin Gabba years ago but am slowly selling my collection.

I'm awaiting my VCI-100 as we are having problems in teh UK at the min but will hopefully have it by the end of the month !!! (Fingers Crossed)

Heloooohaaaa

I tried djing metal at a couple house parties. Not easy if you try and use a normal DJ mind set. Beatmatching is well... not easy, especially when your drunk. lol

Wow I really like the respones that we have gotten on this thread. Im usually curious to see where everyone is from. I know that alot of us come from different backgrounds, lifestyles, and jobs.

But we all have a common interest, and that is Music and the Manipulation of it in a Digital form. We all have a dark side that pushes use to try new things and take the road less traveled. We spend countless hours learning how to setup our midi controllers and are always willing to share how we did it.

Thanks you guys/gals you rock!
