What motivated you to start DJing/presenting?
DJing and collecting music has been a hobby of mine since the mid 90’s. I bought my 1st set of DLP1’s for my 16th birthday and started collecting records and learning to mix from them. Although not an easy task to achieve on such shaky equipment it was an excellent start. The technics 1210s came a few years later and I was away. Many years later I am using the traktor software and mixing with time coded vinyl on a newer set of technics 1200’s – keeping the old school alive!!
