As controllerists.

We need a controllerist version of this guy.

Multiple residencies. Tons of great routines in front of packed dancefloors all while mixing pretty great sets. Able to play to the hipster kids in ny one night while playing commericial shit the next. Mash up and scratch skills that are as solid as they come. Maybe not the best, but consistent to the nth degree.

I cant even imagine what would have happened if we could have put some of these newer technologies in the hands of this guy. I think at some point he would have been rocking a controller and I really think it would have changed the way people view us as dj's.

So get to practicing. It's on us at this point.

with all due respect. even if DJ AM or someone with similar capabilities adopted controllers at this point in time, it'd make no difference at all.

turntablism evolved to the point it is now over decades. controllerism is still in it's infancy.

i've no doubt we'll see some new jacks come up and be the next Z-Trips and Q-Berts of controllerism, but it's going to take time. it'll probably be a couple goofy kids from this forum too hehe.
