We've been thinking about getting decks, just to mess about on (no aspirations, I promise). I want to try some out before we buy with the guidance of someone who knows what they're doing. Who is up for giving me a DJing lesson? In return for ... well, suggest something. If you're skint il pay you, but if not how about I cook (and pay for) a meal for you and your girlfriend / flatmate whatever. I'm well into food (have reviewed for TimeOut among other things), so I think it would be a fair exchange... Gotta have a decent amount of experience, and ideally trance, although could cope with hard trance. I've got a musical background, so understand about bars, phrases, etc, it's the physical beat matching that is a closed book. Reply here or pm me!

I said in another thread that you are welcome to come try my set up, and have a few beers etc. I know enough to show you the basics, plus I have records I know you will like. It will cost you nothing other than your company. If you have a boyfriend then he can even come. I MAY HAVE ALZHEIMER'S..............but at least I don't have Alzheimer's. Riding the Pony is rarely smooth or easy, but then, the best rides never are. Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 29-03-2005 17:02 PM dont_mess Dear diary... jackpot.

Not a huge amount but I do have some... Got a far bit of 'Reactivate' style stuff knocking around, and I just started working for a guy who has his own trance label (check the link in my sig), so I just picked up a few promos off him... so yeah, I have a few trance 12"s... I would also advise you to get a couple of tunes that you know really well already, as obviously as a beginner you will find it much easier to mix stuff you are already familiar with...
