I continued learning to beatmix for fun, and because the home-made deejaying software we used at Biton did not run on my Mac I started to look at alternative software on a whim at USB controllers. I do not own a mixer and turntables or cd players and and do not have much money to invest in a small hobby. To my surprise there are plenty affordable deejay controllers.

For a few months I’ve been toying with playing drum ‘n bass. When the organisation of Biton Open Air asked me to play at the afterparty and I decided to accept and put more work in this project to be able to play a drum ‘n bass set of the quality I’d expect from myself at such an event. So I started to put together a decent music collection and I decided to buy the Hercules DJ Controller Mk4 when it hits the marked, which I just did.

I just did a try-out set of about an hour at a regular evening at Biton which went pretty well. I forgot to record it so I used the automatically generated playlist to redo and record the set, which you can now not download and enjoy home because I accidently deleted the file and am too lazy to search in my backups, there are plenty newer sets to download here anyway!
