Re: New John Digweed Interview

Great article!!! Could'nt have said it better myself:

Progressive-Sounds: The technological advancements in DJing seem to be occurring at a rapid rate these days, first with the advent of CDJs which has totally changed the way many play, and now we have not only Pioneer's DVJ player but many DJs such as Sasha are now using Ableton. What percentage of your sets would you say is now CDR as opposed to vinyl, and do you see yourself incorporating some of the new technology into your sets in the near future?

John Digweed: I've used Ableton and have to say it's amazing technology. It's a difficult balance to make really. The development of the whole scene goes hands in hand with the development in technology and you can't just sit on things and let them stagnate saying you like the way things are so that's that!

Personally, I play a lot from CD these days. It's practically easier and the sound quality is unaffected. I have a soft spot for vinyl but not for carrying 150 records round an airport! I'm not sure what the future holds but at the speed of development of these things expect more to come in the future.

Re: New John Digweed Interview

I'm glad Digweed is not a technology hater...unlike the people who sacrifice small animals to the vinyl gods.

Re: New John Digweed Interview

I found it interesting... clearly his focus has shifted away from being a DJ, to more of A&R and label owner. Frankly, it shows in the music.
