Now That’s A Drop
check out 2:30 in :
For all those dudes that think you need high tech gear to rock the house, notice he’s rockin’ CD’s.
You mean the $5400 “CD” setup hes rocking? A pair of 2000’s and a 900 nexus is about as “high tech” as you can get. You’re acting like hes pulling this off on an ipad app.
Delay/echo and HP filter on DJM800.
i guess high price equals high tech to you. What I meant is he’s not using Rekordbox, a laptop, iPad or any external hardware.
I was thinking of Richie Hawtin as high tech.
Latest addition to my wishlist/stuff I need to do before I die list:
-Buy confetti cannons
-Install in bedroom
-Make it rain on the drop
-Clean up for 4 days straight and remain convinced it was totally worth it.
Just a random thought.
And all you need to rock the house is one ipod and the right music. The rest is just added bonus.
A more on topic thought.
You forgot hippies on stilts. lol
I doubt anyone on the dance floor could see what kind of equipment he is using, or even care.
canon and confetti are always fun
CDJ2000 with DJM900 that can have FX set exactly right on the BPM.. the ONLY thing you gotta do is to analyze your tracks with Rekordbox.
the ONLY thing. But no. It’s “old school” to party with CD’s and leave it to chance for a solid piece of kit to just go out of phase with the effect, possibly creating a trainwreck.
Yeah. Old school is WAY cool.
I agree with you. I think he should use the technology available. I am wondering why he like CD’s. Maybe he had a disaster once.
But my point is that the music is what makes the DJ, not the technology.
I grew up watching guys throw down amazing sets with vinyl, a mixer and tone controls. When the filter knob was introduced it was magical.
did anybody notice the klansman at 2:02??
Did you really just hate on someone for not NEEDING to use all the fancy bells and whistles available to make his job easier? I didn’t hear any trainwrecks. Being able to mix “the hard way” isn’t a bad thing, it’s not leaving it to chance, it’s showcasing skills.
…and yes, being old school IS way cool. 
Confetti cannons = Awesome
:self edit: i have gotten alot better at keeping my mouth shut..
I didn’t see the video, but I’ll spare my blood pressure raising
Where’s the “hella like” button?
Yeah, thought that was pretty odd. Is he DJing in the side room of Privilege?
Um…not THAT impressed to be honest.
He just effected the build up and then it dropped into beats.
I do this repeatedly in my sets.
Nothing new or special…sorry.
The point was not that the DJ performed an amazing drop. The DJ drop was ok. But the whole spectacle was amazing. DJ, music, venue, lighting, Funktion system, stilt walkers and then … boom …confetti and inflatable rafts. What a drop !
biting my tongue also
