So, in 2025... ¼ in the 21st century. There has to be a better way to handle credit cards! I mean this clipboard thing man? Messing up my chip and what not. I don't get it. We can make AI of 2Pac bodyslamming MLK on Raw but we can't figure a better way to handle credit cards? 🤷♂️ Just sayin'

So RKB 7.2.8 lets you "STEM" out the bass.🥱 Listen, as great as RKB is for library mgmt, its horrible with STEMS! RKB needs a complete overhaul as far as performance goes. The STEMS are years behind djayPro, Serato or even VDJ. Don't be complacent @alphathetaglobal be proactive... INNOVATE!

I get it! ADs are a part of our life in the digital age. No escaping them! And whether we like it or not, they'll be personalized! But what is this 💩? I am a Gen X DJ from Brooklyn! On what planet does the algorithm think a man's Moo Moo / Bata is what I want or need? C'mon Zuck, Do Better! 🤦♂️

People outside of NYC don't realize how bad it is here. These mayoral candidates talking lack of housing and space.
THEY ARE RIGHT!!!
Even the DJs don't have space!! Lol

So AlphaTheta released an update to their beginner DJ app for phones. The update lets you DJ and record one 30 min mix per week for free. Anything longer, is behind a paywall. 🙄 The comments in their post man! I've lost all faith in the future of DJing. The future of DJing is cooked!😔

Growing up in House since 87, one of the things that made me proud was when big stars would get house DJs to do remixes for them. By 2000 it was common, but, still nice to see our guys respected. So imagine my surprise when JLo shouted out Hex Hector on the @sternshow.bsky.social last week. Amazing!

Are we living in a time when companies in the same field can cross collaborate for the better of the consumer? Seems so! Thank you @pioneerdjglobal.bsky.social & @algoriddim.bsky.social for #openlibrary this is huge! But Algoriddim needs better hardware and Alpha Theta needs better software...🤔💭🤝?

Yesterday I went to the movies, saw a trailer for "Good Fortune" and then saw "Roofman." It's crazy that for the trailer they use Sylvester's "Do You Wanna Funk." And in Roofman they play Ultra Naté's "Free." The power of our music is amazing! I am so proud of my dance music community.

So proud of my guy @benjybradshaw He has been wanting to diversify his creativity. He is already a recording artist, model, and now wants to DJ. So, I've been helping him and he's taken to it so well. If you love club culture / music, DJing is an eventuality. So glad I got to help his journey along!

I love my Soulful House artists and labels, but how can you send radio DJs and programmers emails with a "promo" of your new single, but your email only has a Traxsource link?🤦♂️ I don't mind supporting, but seriously we get 50+ emails a day? If it ain't Inflyte, it ain't me!

Fantastic article in the NYT yesterday about Mark Ronson and his DJ upbringing in 90s NYC! It was really cool to see he really wanted to go to Shelter! Shows you, when you open your ears and mind musically, you win Grammys and Oscars! Very great article for DJs to read and learn from his mistakes!

Robert Redford just passed away. And for all his amazing roles and the great movies he directed. I'll always remember him as "Death" in season 3 of the Twilight Zone: "Nothing on the Dark"

As a House DJ mentored by the older guard, I was taught it's the DJ's job to let the music breathe so dancers do their thing! Times have changed, but it seems people still dig the older way of mixing. What do ya think? Should House DJs be quick w/it or let songs breathe?

So AlphaTheta releases a new CDJ and 95% of their social media comments are Denon fanboys comparing the SC-5000 from 5 years ago.🤔 Denon IS the same company that hasn't spent any $ on any trade shows, nor released anything new in 5 years, and is not in any clubs or festivals right? Just checkin'!🙄

So Beatport is now adding Caribbean, Pop, Hip-Hop and R&B to it's catalog. Instead of adding Soulful House, or Latin House as it's own genres, we get this? 🤔 I'm confused, isn't that what Beatsource was for?
Somebody help me understand... isn't that catabolizing beatsource's audience?🤷🏻♂️

Can you losers stop posting your " #tiktok is not available" screens!

We all know it was going and IS gone! No need for the screen caps!
WTF man?! 🤦♂️

I want to get rich quick.
I want success and all that goes with it."
🤔Me thinks tonight's show is going to be fun!!

In all my years, do you know I NEVER got a Christmas gift that had to do with DJing!
But I did play the hell out of that Operation Wolf for NES and F-Zero for SNES when I got them! Lol

I have been playing with stems in both #algoriddimdjpro and with #dj.studio and I have to say, being a DJ and producer right now is the easiest it's ever been. However, if you have no creativity, it's like getting a car with AC and always driving with the windows down to stay cool!! 🤷♂️
