That's kind of a problem since most jungle was released on vinyl in a two track form. You're limiting yourself to a very small selection. With that said, here are some compilations I think are worth checking out.

Listening to the radio show now... the whole Chicago connection is pretty cool... Obama also christened the street where the Warehouse once existed as "Frankie Knuckles Way" interestingly enough. I thought that was pretty cool (pic of Obama and Frankie Knuckles, aka the "Godfather of House")
If you're interested in oldskool Chicago House/Detroit Techno, go search for "The New Dance Show" on youtube. It's an old Detroit public access show, kind of like a very low budget "The Grind"/"Soul Train" with much more of a focus on early house and techno. The dancing and dress is really early 90's in style too.

Here's some motivation. SBTRKT - WildfireDavidion said:
Anybody here use Traktor 2? I'm having trouble with mine. For some reason its not detecting the BPM of my songs correctly. And even when it does detect the BPM, its still wrong.
For example, one of my songs it detected to be 111bpm, which just cant be right. VirtualDJ detected the same song to be 125bpm.
Another example, I played the same song, detected as 128bpm in both programs and they were different. Either Traktor was playing it too fast or VirtualDJ was playing it too slow. I am more inclined to believe Traktor was too fast.
Any ideas?

Ashhong said:
I've had this issue with Traktor since I started using it, but it has happened to me FAR less frequently since upgrading to T2. This usually always happens with songs with long intros with few beats. I'm pretty sure Traktor's BPM detector doesn't scan the entire track, and only does the first few beats, which can cause this discrepancy. Do you have a mac or PC? I'm on a mac, and use Mixmeister BPM Analyzer anytime Traktor fucks up. You'll have to use the program to find the true BPM and then go back into Traktor and edit them each by hand. The other way to fix it is to place your beat grids, but that's time consuming and I always seem to mess things up, even when following detailed guides, so do that if you feel confident.
Joelseph said:
If you use sync, having improper BPMs will fuck shit up, hard. I don't use sync (anymore), but having BPMs for all your songs makes it easier to keep the pace going and whatnot. I've got 2600 songs, I can't remember all of them by myself

I use Traktor2 on my PC but my friend let me try it on his mac and my same song files are just fine on there. Like I said though, even when I set the BPM to 128 on Traktor2, the song STILL plays differently than at 128BPM on VirtualDJ. So it doesn't even help if I manually set the correct BPM. Pretty annoying really. I'm a really basic user so I need things like BPM and sync to work for me.
I just want to make a mix for my carride to EDC
I would use VirtualDJ but the program freakin gives me static noise in the middle of my set for some reason, as if the quality of the track goes bad. Must be some issue with my PC or something..Ashhong said:I use Traktor2 on my PC but my friend let me try it on his mac and my same song files are just fine on there.

Oh, sorry, glossed over that part. That's really, really weird. As for the static noise on Virtual DJ, I used to get that with my mixer on Traktor 3.4, and it has to do with your sample rates. Using my mixer with Traktor at 41000 produced that awful noise, but raising it to 48000 fixed it. You need to change the settings on your ASIO4ALL and then go back into Virtual DJ and change it there, too. That should fix it. If it doesn't, it could be something as simple as having WIFI turned on on your computer. There's a lot of trial and error when doing digital DJing.
That's fine, I listened to almost all the links. I've bookmarked several things.leadbelly said:lol
I didn't read all of what you said.
I know there is a Mix CD from DJ Ricky Worden. You won't really find proper albums unless you search for more mainstream groups like 'The Prodigy'. Their early stuff is pretty much like that. A lot of the tracks you will hear on those mixes though are more underground. They only really exist on vinyl.
Your best bet is to find modern mix CDs that are old skool mixes.
I personally like Hazyville better.joelseph said:

Thanks, some of these songs are good. I've also bookmarked them. I'll check out the comps.dsp said:

I've had that problem with Virtual DJ as well.. it's a latency issue. Try turning off "Safe Mode" in the settings. Also make sure you're using the latest VDJ and there are no driver/USB configuration errors.
Cool thanks I messed with some settings and got it to work. I made this really quick and dirty mix for my EDC car trip. I know a lot of you will hate the songs but thought I'd post it anyway. A lot of ibiza house because I'm incredibly psyched for Avicii live, and some high energy trance. Enjoy! or not, whatever =P

Man, how did I ignore Vitalic for so long? When I get home, I'm going on a Vitalic binge for sure...AcridMeat said:
Not sure how many of you have checked out the turntable.fm thread, but it's pretty fun! Would be cool to get a bunch of the electronic GAF in a room to share music.
edit: That said, in this room right now.
edit2: Apparently it's restricted to the US, boo.

Have been going back to some Vitalic, Poney Part 1. Great hype track, imo.
Shaneus said:
Vitalic was just playing his own tracks but with way too many FX.
A journalist described it as ''eating a 5 course menu in fifteen minutes'', and I actually like that comment.
Also saw Kyle Hall (played lots of old sounding techno, not my cup of tea), Jeff Mils (too monotone as usual), a small part of Villalobos (ok to meh), Marco Carola (great), PET Duo & Miss Djax (hardtechno, fun and doable for 20 minutes), and finished with Speedy J. (awesome)
Lots of rain though, so a lot of mud on the terrain, but we had a great time nonetheless.

Marco Carola really impressed me when I saw him last year at Electric Zoo. Not at all what I expected, played some great techno and tech house with some actual melody and funk.
Went to Defqon.1 this saturday. Amazing party once again, but I prefer the old location at Almere strand.
Final act.

Got back from Glastonbury yesterday and I feel like fucking death warmed up.
Managed to see SBTRKT from the front row and it was awesome apart from the dickhead people who kept asking me if it was JamieXX (who was one next and also really good)
The DJ's that came on between the main sets even played Adele + Jamie XX f. Ce'cile, Mr. Lexx and Timberlee, "Rolling in the Heat (The Heatwave Refix)" Which I thought was amazing!
Ended up seeing:
Trollysnatcha
Dj Fresh
the last four songs of Caspa
Netsky
Flux Pavillion
Sbrtrkt
JamieXX
Nero
Chemical Brothers
Stanton Warriors
Dirtyphonics
Toddla T
Chase and Status
Pendulum
Cameo and Krooked
Modestep
London Electricity
And a few others!

I don't know why I haven't posted more in this thread?! I listen to a lot of things but I spin UK Hardcore/D&B and Dubstep (Yeah yeah I know the last one). I've made the switch to CDJ's but I'm keeping my vinyl as I've got a LOT of classic tracks that where hard to find.
http://boilerroom.tv/ben-ufo-b2b-jackmaster-b2b-oneman-1st-birthday-mix/
If this mix had it's levels right or if Asbo would just stfu for two seconds it would be amazing! So many good tracks in there to ID but you won't be able to make it through more than one listen.
Stuff like this: Janet Jackson - Pleasure Principle (Unknown Remix) is lost behind MC Abso who is too loud on this recording.
I am trying to find the ID for the track coming out of the Cocaine Power mashup, It's Ben on the decks, he wheels into the track and then Abso and crowd go bonkers and get a rewind. From there the audio quality is so bad I struggle to figure out what this track is, all I know is it is glorious.
Anyways, if you can stomach an excited MC that is too loud and want to find the hottest of hot tracks listen to this 3 hour monster.

I've thought about it, used my friend's setup and it works well but I'm looking to downsize my setup (and cash out while people are going nuts over Mint tech's). I'm looking at using Traktor Scratch Duo 2.
EDIT:
Is this where DJ GAF likes to hang out?
I find Traktor to be the better program, overall, but everyone is different. It's all down to preference, really, but I feel that they are much more similar now with the release of Traktor 2. Traktor just gives you more options in terms of effects right out of the box. I don't be a lot of experience with Serato, but Traktor, to me, has a better layout. I do believe Serato's DVS is a little more reliable than Traktor's, but don't quote me on that.Mattlikewhoa said:
Edit: Traktor also works amazingly well with a simple, compatible controller. You can save a ton of money and space and still do most of the things you can do with vinyl that way.
