An Absolute Must!!! October 23, 2007

I read all 290 pages of this little beauty in just 3 days, it was so good I had trouble putting it down, I am sure I will be refering back to the sheer avalanche of information contained therein for many years to come. It is very well constructed and the guys who wrote this book have a great sense of humour, they had me laughing aloud more times than your average simpsons episode!!!
Each main chapter has several extremely concise sub-chapters that give you the collective experience of the authors and every other page is adorned with quotes from the biggest DJ's in the business dispensing their piceless pearls of wisdom. Not one stone is left unturned, as they conspire to educate you in every concievable way, into potentialy becoming the next big thing.
Simply put, if you are thinking of becoming a DJ you need this book.

I told a friend of mine that I had interest in DJing and she bought me this for my birthday.
I found it absolutely brilliant, it tells you how to use the equipment effectively including the differences between certain makes/models, plus the advantages and disadvantages of different types of DJing (Vinyl, CD and Digital) and even goes on to explain how to try and get into the industry itself.
Not only that but it advises you on what equipment to buy and gives a list of places where it is available.
As a beginner I found it very useful and inspiring, it is down to earth and everything is written in a way which allows you to get to grips with what its telling you.
If you want to become a DJ and are not very knowledgable about what it requires then I definitaly recommend this book, even those who have some experience will find something they can use.
Worth every penny.
