Oh and George, it's not a very big pain unplugging FS or Serato if you're playing on a 4 channel mixer, it's
actually quite simple if you get it right :)

Serato seems to only work if it's a permanent fixture, because you have to test that it's working first. Every time I've seen people unplugging shit and installing the Serato box it's taken forever and half the dance floor thinks about leaving. Most places aren't equipped with a four channel mixer either. Plus I've noticed when friends have used Serato that there are a lot of stupid mistakes that happen frequently if there's dirt on the vinyl, and silences. Like people will be in the middle of the set and then the track just stops playing. Why even spin MP3s? The sound quality on most of them is garbage. I have a hell of a time finding tracks at a high enough bitrate.
I'm feeling insanely sick right now..

A couple of reasons :

1. You can only cram so many MP3s at high bitrate on one CD ( considering you use CDJs )

2. unless you have a top quality afterhours/club type sound system, bitrates practically don't mean shit.

3. besides, 90% of clubber/ravers just want to dance to good music ( 75% of them are too high to fucking notice and 25% can't actually tell the difference ) and 10% of them are too jaded to like the music being played anyway.


I don't know about everyone else here but I will gladly shell out 30 bucks to go to a party where I can hear some insanely good music, regardless of bitrate.

Shitty music with a 512 kbps and crystal clear quality is still shitty music.

Drugs are amazing. They help you rediscover the beauty in life that society covers up

Fred, depends on who you are, really. Through the years I haven't used massive amounts of drugs like most peeps I've known and I'm quite fine today.

A shitload of my old friends were raving with 3 Es and 2 speeds EVERY WEEK full on for a year or two and today, they are all sick as all hell. When you submit your body to such extremes for extended periods at a time, your liver starts to slowly fail at getting rid of all the crap you do on a weekly basis.

Also, some people already have a weak immune system to begin with. Doing a lot of drugs can potentially fuck up your immune system permanently and even lead to liver failure. Lord knows you don't want that to happen...

Yeah, considering I've actually got an abnormaly strong immune system (which almost killed me when I was 13; my immune system went into over-drive and started attacking my lungs and the lining of my veins.. body-wide internal hemmoraging and drowning on your own blood is NOT pleasent) I'm guessing I would up really lucky with a damaged gastrointestinal nervous system..

Are Drugs Bad?

Dear Editor,

I am 18 years old. Some of my little friends say that drugs are bad. Papa says "If you see it in The Sun it's so." Please tell me the truth, are drugs bad?

Virginia O'Hanlon,
115 West 95th Street,
New York City

Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the government of a dark age. They do not believe except what they are told. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge, and we need drugs to help us comprehend.

No, Virginia, drugs are good. Their benifits exist as certainly as love, and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if drugs were bad! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias'. There would be no childlike faith, then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which drugs fill the world would be extinguished.

Believe drugs are bad! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your government to hire men to run studies in all the labs to prove drugs are bad, but even if they proved drugs cause deterioration in physical and psychological health and turn you into a constantly sick, manic-depressive anxious wreck coming down, what would that prove? Nobody can prove drugs are good, but that is no sign that drugs are bad. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see without drugs. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn sober? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world without drugs.

You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, not even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, cold tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view - and picture the supernatural beauty and glory beyond. For this, we need drugs. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding as trips on drugs.

Drugs are bad! Thank God they are good, and will be taken for ever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, dugs will continue to make glad the heart of adulthood.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Yo. Mad props. This christmas, my nephews went through gifts like candy : rip gift wrap apart, open box, see cool toy, shove cool toy back in the box, throw the box aside, literally throw themselves on the next gift, repeat.

I saw ZERO fucking magic or gratitude in opening the gifts. I shot an angry look at my brother and he was like " what ? " At this point, it made no goddam difference to these kids if it was Santa, their parents, the Xmas bunny or some random fat man giving them gifts anyway. It was all about the fucking gifts ( I fail to understand since we weren't raised like that ourselves ).

So with today's increasingly greedy kids, who needs Santa or the Easter Bunny ? For most of the kids I see today, as long as they get the iPod, Xbox 360 or easter chocolate they asked for, they couldn't care less who the fuck brought it to them. So I ask, why bother coming up with characters.

And Fred, I have the utmost respect for parents whom, in moments on poverty, come up with other ways to keep their kids happy like yours (and mine) did. That roxorz.

I dunno man. The magic around childhood, the make-believe, the look in a childs eye when they're amazed or bewildered or figure soemthing out, the forts, the ninja-turtle games, the tooth-fairy...its pretty special. The discovery, the tree houses, making shitty art. Working, playing, sleeping. Its amazing.

THe world kinda sucks; its full of poverty and war. The inequality of wealth is disgusting. Collectively we can do something about it. But the sick part is that we don't. Im not blaming society or anything; im part of that too. Its just the way life is.

Part of being a child is being optimistic about people, about life. Life is full of possibilities, its limitless. You can be anything you want. Everyone is your friend, everyone is nice. And everyone apologises. Fairies and goblins and Santa and Gnomes are real. Theyre ur friends. Imagine how much childhood would suck if we didnt.

Why do we still read books like Harry Potter? Why are Star Wars and Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Carrabien among the best movies ever made? Arent movies like Rocky and Titanic make-believe in their own way?

I feel bad for your nephews. Theyre missing out. Its not supposed to be about the gifts. Its suppose to be about the christmas magic. If they don't get it, and don't feel it, and don't experience it...thats quite sad.

heh, I know it makes me sound like an old man, but I swear, kids these days are a fucking embarasement. And not even just kids, but even people relatively close to my age.. I'm 27 and I know some 20-25 year olds who have all the maturity of a 12 year old that listens to too much eminem.

Nobody respects anything, they just want their shit, and they want it now! If they don't get it, they hate you, throw a fit, yell, scream, and parents can't do shit or else they're "abusing" their child, so they have to give in to the kids every whim.

Man, what I would have given to have parents like most of the parents today. Instead I got stuck with the alcoholics who happened to be violent drunks. That xmas thing is a pretty good thing, for sure, but man it was offset by a ton of shit that I couldn't even begin to scratch the surface at.

But like I posted in that thread, christmas and easter all come down to the same thing; pavlovian conditioning to get kids used to celebrating/liking a certain day that has religious significance, and then slowly introducing in the religion.

Yes, the world needs more religion. The need to believe in different deities and fucking fight over who's got the best religion/god. No wonder I'm agnostic.

BTW, about kids having no respect : that starts with their parents. I was raised to be respectful ( not through backhand slaps and leather belts, mind you ) and I'm respectful towards others. Unfortunately, it seems like a lost notion and everybody seem to be pretty much doing whatever the fuck they want now.

Also, kids want everything now because parents don't instill a notion of value to things anymore. When I was a kid, I wanted a computer real bad but my parents were poor. They were mature enough to explain to me that work get you money to buy things and when you save up, you can buy that expensive product and that once you have it, you need to take care of it.

Today, kids go through iPods like toilet paper. " Oh it's broken again ? Man, these things are fragile. Here's another another one ". Lessons learned here ? Diddly-fucking-squat. Actually no : when I break shit, my father buys me more.

Bravo. * claps *

Exactly! When everyone had 386s, I had a Tandy 1000. When everyone had a 486, I had a 286. When everyone had a Pentium 2, I had a 486dx33.. I've always been waaaaaaay behind on tech, because unfortunately money doesn't grow on trees for people, and I was raised not to be a little cunt when I didn't get my way.

I absolutely don't want to see what the next generation of kids is going to be like when all the eminem-wannabe thugs get through "raising" their kids.
