I've notices a lot of Dj's tagging their sets lately as "all vinyl". With digital mixing on the rise with programs like serato, traktor and ableton, does it make a difference to you or a set better if it is mixed using all vinyl?

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
Nopes, not at all. If you still can't mix and are playing shit music and haven't updated your record box in the past 7 years why would it make it any better?
I can honestly care less about the medium, as long as it's good music and good programing.Piss off you phucking wanksters! -

All vinyl definitely does not mean that it's not new.Forward thinking house musicComment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
In my experience when anyone has to put "all vinyl" DJ set on their flyer it usually does.
With that being said, I have nothing against it. When I last saw Seth Troxler he was rocking all vinyl and the occasional cd, same with Jud-Ed. But the thing is they never once promoted the fact that they just use ALL vinyl. I find people who do that are usually trying to superior to anyone else who doesn't, and that's another reason not to show up as they'll just look down their nose to you.Piss off you phucking wanksters!Comment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
there are enough good records out on vinyl that it would be easy to play vinyl only. some of my favourite mixes have been classics sets (though i reckon it was all mixed on cd)you could put an Emfire release on for 2 minutes and you would be a sleep before it finishes - Chunky
it's RA. they'd blow their load all over some stupid 20 minute loop of a snare if it had a quirky flange setting. - Tiddles

Depends on the music. If you play German techno it certainly is easy to play all new stuff for many hours.Forward thinking house musicComment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
harder to source quality tracks on vinyl, directly supports the electronic music industry, more difficult to mix, cannot illegally download music with vinyl, many argue better sound quality, and most importantly watching a vinyl dj play has a certain feel that digital simply cannot give...Comment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
As a long-time fan of vinyl, I can sometimes see value in listing a mix as "all vinyl" - not from a standpoint of superiority but rather for clarity of the methodology used for people who find some personal nostalgic value in records. People also sometimes describe their sets as live PA vs Mix and as all-original compositions vs. 5 things layered simultaneously, etc. Of course the sound coming out is of ultimate importance; if the methodology or approach to the mix is considered unimportant, then the listener can always ignore that information.mixes: www.waxdj.com/miroslavComment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
I find "all vinyl " parties appealing because of the warm sound that vinyl puts out.
Long live vinyl!Comment

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
announcing your sets as all vinyl = snobbery.
the music should speak for itself, not the medium, nor should the medium define your skills.For your aural infusion of Caley:

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
i bust wax sets occasionally; though, it's usually when i'm kickin out rare groove gems while sampling and beat-juggling. i strictley utilize only vinyl when i commit to spinnin true school/boom-bap hip-hop, b-boy battle breaks and turntablism sets. imho, that's where vinyl shines and can't be trifled with.
got over mixing automated edm with CDJs and the 'wheels of steel' a long time ago - as the new potentialities --- conferred when mixing digital format within albeton, traktor, etc. --- provide a whole new dynamic paradigim when it comes to mixing, as well as exploitable new tricks not possible with CDJs or turns

Re: All Vinyl Dj Sets
I agree with this as I think it applies in almost all cases.
However, for me personally I'd like to know if the set is all vinyl as from a technical perspective I'd have a better appreciation of the mix.
Ultimately it's all about the music though.Comment
