no. not he is not "loco" meaning crazy, and he's not wrong.

I have held back long enough and since you are apparently unwilling to deal with reality you can read this and either accept it for what it is or go sulk in a corner.

this thread is going to devolve into something unfortunate and be locked or removed completely i'm afraid.

Hahaha!...this is so funny,peoples reaction...yeah sure...ever heard of making a new style?I have tons of these DMC videos.I hanged with Dj Fuze & Shortkut.its all too boring after a while (so is Macros..ha!...)but fair enough.you guys keep cloning the standards.I'll keep trying something new...I have'nt had this much fun since I skinnydipped,swinging of a rope into a lake with a bunch of friends in Orlando as a teen...ha,ha..Great!


15 minutes of the same song so you could destroy it? why? the supposed beat juggling never stays on beat and just gets too damn annoying to keep watching. I had to keep skipping forward to find something worth watching and I couldn't. I just couldn't.

out of morbid curiosity I started looking at the other videos you posted online - there were one or two early videos that showed promise, but over time everything got worse and worse. who is critiquing these? just you? a family member? or someone in the business who will be honest about it?

Tracker we don't and I mean DON'T care what kind of computer you have. no one does. the simple tech specs of ram, processor, operating system, and video card are enough. so please, enough with the alienware name dropping.

that long rambling paranoid PM about people being out to get you that was sent to me was so long and incoherently disjointed I couldn't finish reading it.

you've been active in the forums for awhile but after going back and re-reading some posts, your blog, and going through videos you've posted on youtube and daily motion - I unfortunately have come to the decision that your grasp of what you are doing does not jibe with reality.

no one with that kind of supposed musical background going back 30 years would ever have allowed themselves to post things that sound that bad. and name dropping all those people? not impressed. in this business we meet tons of artists over the years.

and do not think for one minute that because I don't use a controller or use turntables anymore that I don't know what i'm talking about. you don't need any skills with music to know that that just plains sounds wrong.
 
Harsh but true, keep practising grasshopper.
 
cause I don't hide the moments of me first trying this thing (Xponent's platters,now how the #@$% you're supposed to sound on this or the many plastic pressure sensitive controllers out there?) with this style,or any other.this way you will see how I pick up on it...and how would you sound serious with such a humourus video such as this? thats the thing.. I know what it is you dont understand.Im a lead guitarist first,wanted to be a drummer first but couldnt get that in a small apartment in N.Y. so...but I gotta mess with the rhythms and the myths of making music are many..so again..just watch me..
 
 
I can't understand his writing.

You've had that thing for a while now, I remember you talking about getting it like a year ago................Or are you saying this is an older video?? Either way its not beat juggling no matter how you cut.

thanks man..I know you mean well......but dont need it....so from last nite...

oh yes you bloody well do need it!

and one other thing: if you email or pm me again with another long drawn out rambling incoherent "oh woe is me" letter I WILL post it here.

we are trying to be as polite as we possibly can but you are making this difficult.
 
the Xponent is about a month old...but wouldnt run until I got help from Phantom to maping it..videos or even jams havent happened as I am still setting up everything on the Alienware after using respawn and that did'nt work right eating up all programs and xmls.but I've reloade copies from other drives and been adding bpm's and tags for weeks.other than that ..working on the camaras plugins which leave a lot to be desired...but enough of that...seems all people understand is "wiki,wiki,wiki and then drop"..ha! you know they sayd the same thing about hendrix...yeah right...
 
"wild" youre tripping...the situation Im in right now,you couldnt even look at a dj controller...so I allready get my share of opposition.but that has never stopped me..
 
Hendrix had SOUL, your not even in the pocket for the most part. I can see why you never got the hang of drums, your timing is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off. But ok keep practicing and good luck bro.
 
dude I couldnt keep a set because it was the apartment with my mom in the Bronx and I was 10! drums are to big,but she got me a guitar...but I had nothing but drummers & percussionists as roomies in the 80's for one reason...the truth is xponent platters dont land wher you want it to..though with the presurre thing they work a bit better than the hercules Rmx.but i figured I didnt have to explain that to you guys if you know what I'm using as a controller...they sayd it wouldnt run at all,that the drivers and such..but I remembered one of the first guys here at vdj using one on a video.from the facebook group.who was that guy? cant remember now...anyway so everyone gets mad when challenged huh? aint that something...
 
So this was a "challenge"?? Lmmfao!! Well I forfeit bro, you win, I couldn't compete if I tried...........

your share of opposition has never stopped you? i'm starting to think that maybe it should have.

my situation or yours has nothing to do with the subject matter. none whatsoever. your computer (and trust me - NO ONE CARES ABOUT IT BUT YOU) has nothing to do with the subject matter.

the subject is about what you posted as video of what you call "beat juggling" and my god man it is a train wreck! it is not and will never be considered beat juggling by anyone's stretch of the imagination but your own. I don't care what kind of equipment you try to use to do this but it's still going to sound the same - right now you CAN'T DO IT. period. end of that story.

learn to count the beats then try it again in a few months (which is why I suggested you look at the video mark at 1:40 previously) and if you can put something out that doesn't make me want to break my headphones to put them out of their misery.
 
why don you post something then? I have about 8 pairs of phones ,i can destroy a few..he,he..
 
I have years worth of video all shot at work - not in a bedroom - where the real world applies. and in not one of them will you see me or the other dj ever scratch, use a turntable, fist pump, twiddle knobs except to adjust volume, or for that matter will you see me post a video that makes what I do for a living look bad.



please go ahead and show me some video of you working in a club?

it's amazing to me and most likely some of the others that you would not have previewed the videos you posted and not thought "sounds like crap, better not post it" or "using obvious pirated video in this clip - better not make it public".
 
ho,hoho,I was waiting for that...no I wont.never.I see there's plenty of clouds "over their heads" types here...starting with two who tends to lead the pack,and some foolish enough to follow.and I wont go along with it,I've sensed this years ago.the real fake is he who dont show what his chops are about.I never attacked you but for some reason you've been triggered...dont bother looking for mastertracker cause Its just one alias.see I've had this problem for a while.I give props to everyone (you fool,cant remember when I saw that picture in another thread and I gave positive comments? what's wrong with all of you?dont like thats there's allways someone ready to show you whats up? I raninto nothing but them types..but welcome to the real world.Mr.Wild...now again ..this is about scratchin or doing something other than being a human jukebox...so..whats wrong with that?
 
I am not commenting on the video or posters involved, but generally if you post a picture or video then expect criticism - you are after all opening yourself up for feedback and you can be assured it will never all be positive.

I get it all the time when I take hours/days/weeks/months to create something and post it so have been on the receiving end more than once.

If you feel that you can't accept criticism gracefully then it would usually be considered a bad idea to post a something that could open you up to it.

This doesn't just apply to videos of DJing but also pics of setups, rig pics, gig logs, screenshots, samples, skins, plugins and the like.

Again this is a general comment for everyone to take on board.
 
Wise words from SBDJ.

In the online world these days, even if you post something really great, you'll get people commenting on how it was the worst thing they've ever heard and they could do better in their sleep. Maybe they could, or maybe they are just attention seeking keyboard warriors.

In this case though, you're getting honest comments from people who do know what they're talking about.

Take it on board rather than try to fight it. They're being straight with you.
