Ah.... I'm not quite the Now... guru I thought I was :( ;)
I know this without looking, roughly...
Now... 20 was in 1990, Now... 30 was 1995, and I think Now... 45 was the last of 1999. As you can tell, they started making more than two a year at some...
It is a difficult one to call isn't it? We should have a no violence policy, as in any workplace, but I think it's a bit different when the workplace is filled with people who have had a drink. I'm...
I spend a lot of time on Youtube (who doesn't!), forums, and still listen to the radio a lot. Huey Morgan on R2 is always worth a listen, usually a very eclectic mix.
Noone has addressed the point I made, regarding a possible breakdown or other such emergency. If you break down, does your cover get you and the equipment to the gig? If not, do you have someone who...
Yeah, I'd agree with Shaun, there isn't much else really. Possibly Deacon Blue - Dignity, and might be worth checking you've got something from other Scottish bands like The View, Franz Ferdinand,...
Not a fan of driving long distance, so within the hour for me.
Of course, there's more to factor in here than a first glance. What if something goes wrong? Does your breakdown cover include...
I must say that it's a combination that should produce some great tracks, but I find them to be few and far between. Doop has always been a guilty pleasure, and I've never tired of 'Americano.

What do you make of the 4500, Gary? As a backup system, isn't it a bit much considering the necessity of a laptop to accompany it?
I was thinking about getting an SD card player as backup, but not...
It's funny how we all do/see these things differently, when ultimately the end product is the same to the customer.
I remember a thread with a theme along those lines - asking whether the...
This old chestnut again! :)
No difference for me. If you're running through any sort of PA system, the 'bottlneck', so to speak, is never going to be the bitrate of the file. Even the best PA...
I'm with the majority vote on this one, I wouldn't have replied after the first two emails were exchanged. The client has involved him, it's their problem, not yours.
I veer towards the majority (guests), unless pushed by the client, in which case I must admit I just suck it up and do what they want.
Good thread, are we talking about any vocalists who impress, or soul singers?
In general, off the top of my head, I'd go with Morrissey, George Michael, Mariah Carey, Robert Plant, Stevie Wonder,...
I'm never one to go overboard when a celebrity dies, but in this case I did feel genuine sadness. Why? Well, he has made me laugh more times than I could possibly count, with his manic comedy style....
You did the right thing, by the sound of it. That sounds like it could have been a nightmare at the end of the night, with guests blocking the staircase. Were the bride and groom alright about it? It...
Agreed with above, I'd just blow out the dust and vacuum. You can buy compressed air canisters to force a bit more dust out as well, which are safe to use on computers and general electronic...
If it's Windows, you should look into the Files and Settings transfer wizard. Not sure where it is in Windows 7/8, but it's found under Accessories/System Tools in XP. You'll still need to know where...
:agree:
I was going to post a link to the same album on Juno (http://www.junodownload.com/products/back-to-the-old-skool-garage-classics/1951299-02/), but Amazon pip them on price.
Still, Juno...
No, I don't by default. It's something I noticed other experienced DJs doing when I was learning the trade, but I don't consider it to be a 'tradition' which needs to be continued. I must admit that...
It's a difficult one, yes they're paying their money so should be allowed to choose the music if they like. However, they probably aren't aware how unsuitable their requests may be.
I had a...
Interesting... how would that work though? Surely the lead guitar part is already playing in the recorded track, so it would be akin to singing along to a standard audio track rather than a...
