thats why we all do it!

for me its been 8 monthes away from my own equipment which i sold before relocating to Thailand, goodbye technics turntables, mixer - all my records (i kept the records)

so i get here and for the the whole time longed for some gear to mix on, but of course that would mean starting from scratch again

so now just last week I finnally had the cash up to go and buy 2 x CDJ800's and a DJM700 all new

2 guesses what I have been doing since - you never get sick of it - EVER :daftpunk:

Mixing is the greatest thing ever, I don't know how I would live without music.

I'm either making it or mixing it, everything else is just a step in the way of me doing it.

when i was at uni it was the other way around ... 9 days out of 10 would start with a series of cups of coffee and a bangin' mix :rock:

Nothing better that DJing for your cat.....until they jump up on your decks and skip the hell out of a mix....

Still cute though.

haha it's weird, i would have thought that the bass would really piss her off but there is a big comfy armchair in the room that she curls up onto whenever I am mixing and even though it is cranked LOUD she will just have a lil snooze... love my Moochcat <3

DjScar
04-Sep-08, 11:43am

this thread just reminded me that i need to pick up beer and my decks tonight
and no acid on the way.
i cant believe how infamous i have become, i don't know weather to be happy or worried.

i think the cats love the vibrations or something because we have 3 and the little kitteh does the same thing.

now she just hangs out there, im concerned shes going to fuck shit up tho.

cute ... sure


but GTFO off the mixer kitty!!!

i don't want hairs in my faders :mad:

i love our resident cat ... but any time he jumps up on my decks i literally hurl him off in an action that very firmly says "cats don't belong up here"

i would lose it if my girls cat came near my decks. im patient enough with him walking across the pc keyboard.
as fd said, GTFO!! hair and faders = X(

but he does love sitting in the room listening. its cranking at 4am on a Sunday morning and he is snoozing happily near the speakers. strange little creatures...

Awww... cute

Love; cats

Hate; cat hair

Why do they only like me when i'm wearing black!!?!?

southern_dan
05-Sep-08, 12:31pm
because you look like giant father cat?

do you have a tendency to piss on walls to mark your territory, this could also have soothing to do with it.

05-Sep-08, 12:42pm
^ :lol:


Another thing I hate about cats;
Lets say I was moving furniture and something heavy fell on my abdomen, breaking my hip and rendering my immobile. If I had a dog I could say 'Go get help!' and the dog would go running to save me.

A cat would look at me, then curl up on my legs and start purring. After acouple of hours once it gets hungry it'd lick my face. Probably eat my corpse eventually. Assuming it'd wait til i was dead....

i would lose it if my girls cat came near my decks.

my g/f's cat will happily cuddle up next to the speakers unless you forget to feed her, which of course i did one day and she decided to jump up on the playing deck X( deep fuckoff gouge on a day old record and a broken ortofon. X( X( X(

that was about a month ago and it still won't come near me.
