What’s going on people? It’s been a bit but I am committed to keeping this site updated. I have a few more reviews I need to do. I upgraded from a Reloop Elite mixer to a Pioneer DJM S11 battle mixer recently in celebration of a new job I got in IT and my wife getting a bonus at work. It’s a sick mixer and I asked the Lord if I could get one to help me in my Djing some time back when it first released. I know God isn’t about material things, but I definitely put work in on the DJ equipment I get and Djing gives me something constructive to do with my free time. The idle mind can be the devils workshop so I like to keep busy with my music. I’ve been really looking into manifestation and I have a notebook where I am writing down the things I want to be in fruition. Some are personal but related to this site I want to be an amazing scratcher and turntablist so I put it out there to the universe. The numbers 3,6, and 9 are very important to the universe so I utilize them in my manifestation techniques. Some things have come to pass and I’m still plugging away at others, but it can’t hurt to do it. I definitely believe in the power of those numbers as I’ve seen them at work in a variety of aspects of life. Prayer to the Most High God is also very important so I include that in my work as well. Anyway I’m off to get in some quality practice while I’m off work, but I would definitely suggest to anyone reading to give manifestation a try. I’m going to add some more reviews to the site soon and actually update the spirituality part of the site so I can share some of the things I’ve discovered in my 40 years on this planet. Peace, love, and light to anyone reading and take care of yourself.

Keep Scratchin’
Hey what’s up reader? I just wanted to post a blog entry on here to keep the site going. I’m still practicing away at my scratching. I really love turntablism and the whole journey of trying to become a better scratcher and soon beat juggler. I was thinking today as I was making my coffee how lucky new DJs are. Back in the day when DJs were learning to scratch they really had no frame of reference. Think about how you have to grind and repetitively practice scratches in order to get better at them. I do it because I see Youtube videos, Instagram posts, and Facebook posts of people doing the scratches so I know it can be done. I have a goal I’m trying to reach. Back in the day before the internet or in the internet’s infancy, DJs really didn’t have much to compare to. They didn’t know if a particular scratch was possible to perfect but they kept forging forward and trying. It’s a testament to the drive of mankind. I really admire those early DJs who kept practicing and drilling and discovering new scratch patterns and fader techniques. Without them, we wouldn’t have the wealth of information we have today. It’s a great time to get into Djing and turntablism. I’m really looking forward to the day when I consider myself a good scratcher and/or beat juggler. Even better when I become great at it. Until that time comes I’ll be in front of my decks working away at it and putting in the time. Peace, love, and light to you all.
