I can’t imagine working in a business with equipment that isn’t constantly being broken. Yeah, my boss has quite literally run out of money and can’t afford to keep the lights on at night (and I work alone with no other employees). It was a really stupid decision, but I just cant help it since...
A tool you have to use in your home that you use to get things done, such as making your house look like it needs repairs? You can’t do that. You can get something useful to look at and use in your home, but you have to think about what you’re going to need. That’s...
I am a big fan of trance. I always have been. My favorite tracks, and the ones that always make my heart sing, are those that are so raw and primal, yet so accessible. It can be really addicting to listen to a track and then play it over and over again. I think it...
I’m not sure about you guys, but I have a lot of fun using the gear I get. I recently got a D-Block (a portable radio), a pair of earphones, and a laptop all in one. As a kid, I loved the DJ gear. You can’t just buy DJ gear and plug it into your...

This video is a great way to teach your kids how to use their own gear without a parent or coach. It will also help them understand how to use their gear and how they can use it with safety and without a parent and coach present. This is one of the more entertaining videos...
I’ve been building equipment for a couple years now, and I’ve learned a ton about how tools and parts work. I can’t say this enough, build your own! It’s a great way to learn about your tool and how it functions. One thing that I have noticed with my many years of building tools and...
I’ve had the pleasure of using the beat maker for years now. It has proven to be an amazing tool for me to get a quick but precise beat as well as get a decent sound out of the drums and cymbals. It has been used for everything from my bass drum to my drum...
I first heard about the DJ equipment for kids in New York City when I was looking for a cheap way to entertain my kids while they were visiting with their grandmother in upstate New York. It was so cheap and I immediately fell in love with it. I had no idea what my kids...
