Most of you will probably guess by now that I’m a big music fan. I’ve got all these fantasies of being a DJ but I haven’t had enough time lately to get into it more cos I’m in between houses right now and my turntable is packed up. My delays have also been prolonged by the loss of my external hard drive which housed my entire music collection.

I’m not that great as I only have 1 Numark turntable and mixer, so I really have to get another turntable before I can start mixing, but I’ve had some baby attempts at mixing with a laptop. I’ve even started a little vinyl collection which is growing slowly. My favourite ones are the 60’s and 70’s disco 45″s which I love playing at home. But the most influential album for me, especially for my leanings towards turntablism has been ‘Since I left You’ by the Avalanches. It was after listening to that album that I really began to appreciate the skill involved and it was then that I decided I might have a go at this.

Unfortunately work has been pretty full on for me this year and just when I thought that my feelings for turntablism were about to die (because like any relationship you will always have to work on it to make it work), I get an anonymous email about a new site for DJ’s called ‘United DJ’s of PNG‘. Awesome or what! So yeah, check out the site if your into that sort of thing and start sharing!

Also if there’s anyone out there with old records they no longer want please let me know as I would love to buy them, I’m really not fussed what type of music.
