Maybe some of us cross paths on the internets other than here and not know it.
for me:
AR15.com cause I am also and shooting afficionado and a gun nut. Why do you think I moved from CA to TX?
VirtualDJ.com cause I use the program primarily. Although I have Traktor and Serato ITCH and SL. Only use Serato if I am playing with other DJ’s. Traktor is just kinda there on my laptop.
Dallasdancemusic.com. That site is kinda dead now though. Use to be a very good and active site a few years back. I still stop by maybe once a week. The Events section is still pretty active.
Last but not the least, DJForums, but I guess that is dead now.
NI, Digital DJ tips, Skratchworx Adventure Rider, Two Wheeled Texans. I’m Photojojo all of them. I go to Dallas Dance Music some, but not very often.
Native Instruments (Moderator)
Skratchworx (the only reliable place for impartial information)
DigitalDjTips (good info)
DJForums (meh)
Allen & Heath (not much going on there but hopefully when the K2 is out it will get lively)
Serato (yes i am there)
Korg
Seriously man, we are getting parcels everyday (Kates Xmas ordering has gone interstellar this year) and every time its a major let down…!!!
Worst of all is the Postman comes at about 10am so if ive been gigging ill have been in bed for about 4 or 5 hours yet i SPRING out of bed and answer the door in my undies to find that its some crap for an Aunty.
I’ve been more of a blog guy lately… I used to frequent a lot of forums but now I’ve narrowed my interests somewhat.
DJTT fiveeightforums.com (great music community created from the original Dream Theater’s forum. Great music related discussion as well as a lot of nonsense fun)
Few photography forums from time to time.
Few airsoft forums from time to time aswell..
Blogs I usually check (off topic I know, but what the hell),
Nope I’ve been on all those, but Strobist is the only one I go back to. I have a couple of McNally’s books and the man’s a genius, but photography is my job not my hobby so I don’t spend a lot of time on it when I’m not working.
Makes sense. It’s more of a hobby for me so I go anywhere I can get a few ideas… sad part is, during the last year I have had to chose between photography or djing since time is scarce ever since I started my internship.
Nowadays i pretty much googled anything that i have interest to, only would register on the forum if i see them active with regards to subject that matters me..
DJTT for latest news in djing in general.
Roland Clan for any new stories about the Fantom G (this flagship synth workstation is still half cooked with ver 1.5, it’s long overdue!). nevertheless a good place to find help if i’m stuck with my G.
for music-wise, recently I’ve joined GlobalHardTrance forum, too bad it’s a deserted place but i have a good read on what was the story left on the board…the good ol days of harder dance music.
I phased out a lot of forums for subreddits and I consider a lot of reddit subreddits like forums and the smaller ones have some really great community/content. Once you get past and unsubscribe from the god awful default subreddits full of memes are retardedness there is some really great stuff on reddit.
r/DJs (you all should be on here)
r/guns
r/EDMproduction
r/wearethemusicmakers
various music genre subreddits
club3g.com Forum for the 3rd generation Mitsubishi Eclipse, I rarely post but tons of great info about the car, and one of the greatest Off Topics that I’ve seen on the net
torq-dj.com rarely post there, but great people that are willing to help with anything regarding Torq
teknosounds.com one of the best Texas EDM forums…makes me miss living in Texas everyday
