This is what got me into Dj'ing -
Qbert is a grand master when
it comes to scratching and this
was years ago (1995 I think) -
but that changed a lot for me back
then, i choose to spend hours making a
pittance to get some turntables and
then a family friend (cue heavenly
music here) "permanently lent"
me his old ones. Yes they were
crappy belt drive, no label, turntables
from east London somewhere and lent me
his very large vinyl collection for a few
years until I built mine up.
WARNING: this got me hooked to my biggest money spender ever! (But totally worth it!)
Then the knowledge that I am now at the very tip of the ice burg and on a me to qbert/sasha/insert you favorite Dj here level, I had a very long way to go.
But anyways - I just wanted to share this moment with y'all, because it still inspires me to go spend 4 hours hunched over my (much nicer technics 1210's) trying to mash up rugga, d'nb, hip-hop and a healthy amount of scratching madness (ok, this is my next endeavor, still not quite up to a level that I would be happy to do at a gig)- but hey, it's alllllll goooooooooooood ;p
