CD VS VINYL ! Yo Need Advice

[G2ThaV]

Aight check this , im about too start Djin for real, at the moment im mor of a digitaL dj, i fuck wit a few computer progz , an I just put out mixtapes for my boyz, friends , n any one who wants the hottest blazin shit.

So anyways now Im bout too go get my equipment. An I was this close too buyin the Basic Technics 1200 turntables. But then yo i jus realised this shit aint goin no where!

Ive decided im jus gonna skip vinyl completley , an start with Cd turntables.

Now ive hollered at peeps for advice they sayin the same shit nah yo u gotta use vinyl, blah blah. But then i realised no one really knows what the fuck they talkin about cause they havent used cd turntables, just cd mixers n shit. This new product by pioneeer cdj 1000 , lets u scratch on the cd turntables  , n do everythin u can wit vinyl plus more. N that is just the first of whats too come on the market.

One guy told me yesterday he had a phrase for me
"Real DJs Use Vinyl" my reply was "Old DJs Use Vinyl , time for a new era" next generation is gonna come up, n i rekon n 5 years ma fuckers gonna be doin there sets wif laptops, n cd turntables. nyways thats how i feel,, yo holla back wit some advice.

An yo if u still aint convinced Peep www.finalscratch.com  < That shit right there is what i wanna fuck wit after a while when i get mo $$ .

Cause that shit an other shit that comes out like it, is gonna be the future of Djin whether ma fuckers want to believe it or not.

I also think the vinyl peeps just dont want too move on , i mean they spent so much money on there equipment/setup , n all the vinyl is so expensive, they dont wanna change.

Good topic .  

I used to  DJ     but   I just recently  sold all my  equipment  cuz  I  dont have the time anymore to spin.     It can really take a hold of your   life.    It was best for me to  just  give it up.

My advice to you is  ..........  do what you feel comfortable doing.      If  you  were to ask me   Whats better ?   Vinyl or CD's  ?         I would reply   VINYL  in a heartbeat !!      Believe me  the scratching  just wont sound the same with that computerized   CD   turntable thing  your talkin about .    THERES NO REPLACEMENT FOR   VINYL !!!

You have to realize  alot of  these  DJ's who tell you that   are   crate diggers.   They dont just go to the  store and  buy the new   Eminem album  on     vinyl.    They hit up   garage sales , old record shops  ,  warehouses  and whatnot    to   cop them some  old   records .    Records from the  60's  70's   80's        etc ........

And  there is  soooooooooo  much more   shit   on  Vinyl .     You can  get shit    wayyyyyyy  before   it  drops   on  CD   or even on the   net  .      Which is why  you hear  DJ's  on the radio spinnin   all the newest shit .        Dr.Dre  2001   singles & promos   dropped   about  6/7   months before  the  retail  date .     And   12"   vinyls have      the  Instrumental /  Acapella /   dirty  version / radio version     of the song !!     Thats the whole point     when your  mixing !!!

I could go  on  and on   ..........    I   have alot of shit on     vinyl   that  you just wont find   on audiogalaxy  or  at the   CD  shop .      

But if you just wanna  DJ    at parties   and   play   some shit   then   do  what  you  gotta do    .........  and  get that  CD mixer thing your talkin about .      It all depends on  your  interests .    

PEACE.

Yea well would it be different if i could get all the shit that goes on vinyl on Cd , accapellas , instrumentals n all, i will be able too get them! so that throws out that argument.

Then i think ur response is exactly what i expected, if i were talking aobut cd mixers, like the basic CD DJ decks there are,  But once again is this new prudct n new products like it are gonna change the game. the pioneer cd 1000 is different too all the basic cd equipment used now, that i can understand what ur sayin when u say id be okay for parties.

But Firstly for me i live in Australia , it will be definetly alot easier for me to get my releases in CD and Mp3 then vinyl simply cause its harder to get a good selection vinyl here.

We are only at the VERY begining on this cd dj revolution wif this pioneer CDJ-1000 as it stands alone, but all the other companies will start bringin out similar n better products this year an so on. The CD turntables will in i say 1 year offer FULL vinyl emulation.

The fact is cds are smaller , lighter, easier to carry, greater availability like i said. You wouldnt have too carry all those expensive vinyl with u.  there are alot of DJS now that rely on the older cd decks at least part time  during there set. Id also have the ability to play tracks that i made that afternoon that i thought was dope for example.

Most importantyl i will b able too play the hottest blazin shit that aint on even on vinyL.

you could order through the net .       Hiphopsite.com    has  a   WIDE  selection of      vinyl .        Very affordable too.
