It is time for a new tattoo, and I am looking for some suggestions. DJTT has played an enormous part in my learning to DJ and my motivation, so its time to reflect this community in a different way.
I want to get a half sleeve tattoo, incorporating DJing. I’m in the process of sketching and brainstorming, and I was hoping some of you would have some suggestions on what to add to the tattoo. What other DJ tattoos have you seen that you liked?
Here are my ideas for now:
Turntable tonearm
The pitch dots from a turntable platter
USB logo - almost all of my DJing is digital
Digital VU meter for fill.
I love the idea of a digital DJ inspired half sleeve.
Gotta get the play/pause logo in there somewhere… Maybe a little bit of ableton midi arrangement in there somewhere? Waveforms? Needles/carts? Couple of logos? (Traktor? MiK? Ableton? iTunes? Beatport?) Record Label Logos?
Damn - I’m liking my own ideas here. Might have to look into this…
I’m working on two DJ inspired 3/4 sleeves. One with the tone arm, dots and a DJ playing in front of a crowd…almost finished with the other arm (a speaker and EQ bars). Haven’t decided how I’m going to give a nod to the digital side of DJing yet.
The play/pause logo will probably find its way in there, and possibly the Traktor logo in the background as filler, but subtle. I dont use Ableton much, but waveforms might work. The tonearm will have the cart looking like it it coming off of my arm, so there will be much detail for that. Liking the ideas, once i have something drawn up, I will post.
