'Ere come the premix... "wow this dj is amazing, hang on a minute, He's not even touching the mixer, what a cheat! And I've got this - it's the latest Fabric CD, what a rip off!"

Something I made earlier... Expect to hear the freshest tunes made earlier that day and then burnt to CDR for you to hear! "Wow I'm gonna hear something fresh, BUT WAIT It's not even mastered and actually... it's shit. It's hurting my ears and It's not good enough to ever get released properly, get me out of here" :(

I've got this one... "This DJ is nothing special I've got this one already, I got it months ago on the internet init, and it's not even out yet. I only play unreleased stuff now, I haven't bought something that's actually out for years, I sold all my rare vinyl so I could buy myself a virtual house on Second Life. It really pisses me off how every DJ has got all the same tunes and nothing rare, I just don't get it "

I used to love that label... "Oh no! my favourite label vinyl4U have gone bust! I'm gutted - I used to buy all their 12"s until I discovered I could get them for free from a dodgy website, I wonder why they went bust? I thought they were doing well!"

Disco Dave's quality vinyl store has become a Starbucks... "Oh No, I loved that shop, the knowledge the owner had and the service was wicked, they always pointed me in the right direction and helped me find music I would never have found on my own. I notice that PC world are doing ok though, Look! 10'000 cdrs for 50p, brilliant I can burn myself that Billie Jean Vs The Thong Song bootleg and rinse it in the clubs, Miami here I come!"

Where is that tune? "my vinyl copy had that wicked artwork, that's how I could always find it when I skipped through my record box. Oh crap I need to play it quick the tune playing is running out, oh no I can't find it on my hard drive, 90'000 tunes is too many to go through, ARGHHHHHHHH!"

STOP THIEF! "I just popped my head down for two seconds and someone has stolen my Serrato plate, what am I gonna do now?"

What's this tune? "I'm doing the label I robbed this off a huge favour by playing their records in my set and promoting them. Some punters have just asked me what it is; and this is how I justify my stealing. I'll just point them in the right direction by telling them what it is and who it's by (I'm feeling smug as the system works). OH NO the filename says unreleased dub... nevermind!"

yes yes kru vinyl rules 100%  it takes time and effort to be able to mix propa using vinyl  not cdj, or some vdj software wheres the skill and effort in pushin the cue or sync button , i can see why some dj,s turn to mp3 as itz damn site cheaper than vinyl  99p as compared to 6-6.50 a tune  that said i di 2 radio shows a week and its all vinyl baby , i may not be able to keep up with all the tunes that come out these days but fook it love mixin pon my dex vinyl selection at hand yes yes :) one of the stations i play for is venturing into eventz  called strictly vinyl   itz 100% vinyl any dj playin has play tunes they way they were intended , keep the vinyl alive kru ................jah bless

Keep Vinyl Alive!!

There's nothing better than djing with vinyl, pressing a button on cue just aint the same!!

We will sell vinyl til the bitter end, but independent record shops (Chelmsford, Essex) like ours needs your support!! Keep it going guys www.intenserecords.co.uk

Vinyl will never die. The bass at the heart of its sound will keep it alive.

I used vynil for years any tunes I make I get made into vynil to here what the bass realy sounds like you can not beat vynil for bass sound high sound and mid I have been involved with tests done at seimens computers at bracknal there mp3 player was smashed by the vynil I mean smashed to bits upto 75% more clarity on vynil witht he right clean needle :-) I think this all suits clubs as they had very big bills maintaining the record decks and digital is easier for them and cheaper manny manny ravers I know walk out of clubs and festivals were it's all cd or mp3 jus tnot the same sound or feeling from the music and the feeling is every thing come on world stop stealing and support some real music made with skill love passion and shere grit not the digital trash that seems to be around now. respect to the group from an old vynil head Urbanised........... preace
