Quite frankly, starkraver, the day I let my AO comp go (which unfortunately never will happen) you'd probably get it in exchange for some random record you've got. I'm more into trading than ripping people off.

That makes no sense at all. 40 euros being the highest, why offer 300 Es?

Drinking good beer and listening to Ubarpedia CD 1

Great initiative! Looking forward to this.

Second the 4 Lux recommendation, absolutely brilliant house stuff on there. Labels: Guidance Records, Large, SVEK, Strictly Rhythm, Downtown 161, F Communications (had a bit of everything though), Ferox, Force Inc US (this one was way more house oriented than its counterpart Force Inc), Sound Signature, FXHE Records, Locked On (for the the UK Garage permutation) Artists: Kerri Chandler, Larry Heard, Deep88, Chris Brann (and his wamdue projects), Boo Williams, Delano Smith, Jonsson/Alter, Maya Jane Coles There is an endless amount... of really good deep house and house in general out there.

Laid back, hmmm... that is certainly a different take on it. You sure you've listened to it on a PA or some real bad ass headphones at crazy ass volumes? Well, I'd not be chillin' to it had I been on a club, just saying .

The "harder warehouse" techno you might be looking for?
-
I like this one. It is really good, lots of energy.
-
Iboga, although proggy label that. Started 1997 according to discogs.

I think dragonfly closed down but liquid sound design kept on going, I think they changed the name a bit though.
-
Maybe the Exogenic Breaks department is still on?

I feel the pricing is a bit unnecessary when it comes to goa cds. I get it that people want them badly and pay accordingly. But it is a decent amount of psychology running a little too hot in my opinion. A good copy of Accidental Occidentalism for 200 euros just makes me uninterested (even if I had a salary of a billion euros a year). If I would have let my copy go of course it wouldn't be for a dollar but I'd probably set the price at about 40 maybe 50 euros. The other 150 euros is to me mere psychological warfare, and I really don't like going to war.

I haven't donated at all. I have been thinking about it though... right now what is holding me back is that psynews seems to manage without it. But yeah, if it comes down to "we cannot survive unless we raise a certain amount of money" I'd donate in jiffy. Maybe there could be subscriptions (different tiers of memberships), where monthly/yearly it'll withdraw an amount of money. To get busy the board needs something that activates its members, I did my two 10 CD contests which I want to believe was quite popular . The contest that Ormion announced above seems like a good way to get some activity on here, because I'm guessing it is going to be one of those tracks competitions which we used to have back then. Dying is the wrong word for psynews. I think more of lows and highs which is to me very much a normal thing. Of course some members moves on that is part of life but then ultimately we have new members and members that stay forever.

My set up right now is 2xPioneer PLX-1000 1xTechnics SL1200 2xPioneer CDJ-1000 1xEcler Nuo 4.0 (just got a A&H Xone 92 but haven't set it up) This is what I'm most comfortable with and yes as you can see I play CDs even though I might think of them as obsolete. But if CDs disappeared one day I'd most likely get myself timecoded vinyls and rip all the digital records onto a HD.
-
I've never understood (as with CDs in general) why these CDJs still exist. Vinyl DJs can get all their needs fit into traktor and timecoded vinyls, as well as being able to play with original vinyl. CDJs is _exactly_ the same as playing with a midi-controller and a laptop, jog wheels and effects galore. http://static.djbooth.net/pics-equip/vci400-2.jpg You look into your computer inventory just as much as you look into your CD inventory. I've tried, there's at least for me no difference at all.

Being a DJ is for me quite vague. In my opinion everyone who selects and plays music (yeah even those who select and play music through a playlist on spotify youtube etc) for an audience (1 to infinity) is a "disc" jockey. In what way they're doing it is probably important depending on what setting is applied. Also it is up to the DJ to play in the way most comfortable for her/himself. As in any work department there is going to be some really bad DJs some good some great ones some brilliant and some geniuses. Even with a sync button it is still an art, even with a prerecorded set it is an art. Of course plagiarism (playing someones elses mixes) is not an especially good idea for any DJ. If you can pull of a great show with a prerecorded set, good for you!
