Mix Master Mac

by C.K. Sample, III Jan 23rd 2006 at 12:45PM

If you've been following all the good news about Sundance Film Festival over at Blogging Sundance and Cinematical, then you've probably already spotted the news that Mix Master Mike was ripping up some cool tunes at last night's party for The Beastie Boys' film that James Rocchi reviewed for Cinematical.

James went to the party last night, and shot the picture accompanying this post with his camera. Check it out: Mix Master Mike, cutting with a PowerBook. Nice. James said the cuts were off the hook, and I was very jealous that he got the pass to go to the party, but didn't get a plus one for yours truly. Fortunately, James is an awesome guy and hooked me up with some nice Beastie Boys schwag that he scored at the party, as well as the picture and title for this post.

ps—Beasties rule!

Most DJs I know - and I am one myself - still really prefer vinyl... The only convenience of the laptop is that you can carry tons of more music around with you (and very light weight).

The best combination of vinyl & computers so far is FinalScratch.

To be honest most Turntabilists & DJs are actually using Serato Scratch Live - http://www.serato.com/. Similar but more popular than Scratch Live. This is the beginning of the end for vinyl - if you can switch even Hip Hop DJs to mp3s & computers than anything is possible.
