The art of DJing was becoming more difficult to do because of the invention of the music CD; Music companies could produce 10 CDs for the same price of producing one vynl record. Finding Vynl (wax) records of popular songs and artists where becoming more difficult to get. Many people dont know that I actually DJ as a hobby and get lots of enjoyment from mixing, scratching and blending records.
I have been DJing as a hobby for over 16 years and the Serato Technology has made it much easier to continue to have this art form as a hobby.
Serato technology allows a DJ to use MP3s on a laptop and mix and scratch with two control records. The invention of the Serato Scratch Live technology saved the art of DJing and made the experience more enjoyable by REAL DJs with REAL skills! No more carrying crates of records any more! Time for getting back in the lab to come up with mad creations to make the party people dance!
