Website www.youtube.com/user/thisiswh0DJ Sneak - ADE 2019DJsounds2020-02-12 | Here we bring you a unique experience from legendary DJ Sneak at Amsterdam Dance Event 2019 using no CDJs, just two standalone samplers in the form of the DJ booth friendly DJS-1000.
A self-confessed addict of the DJS-1000, Sneak has made it his tool of choice in the studio and in live sets revealing he’s made 200 projects in just 5 months!
He explains how the DJS-1000 has made it quick and easy to generate ideas that can then be exported into production software to further develop, as well as a way to take short ideas to clubs to test crowd reaction before deciding which ones to evolve further.
Sneaks starts with more of a live spoken demo conveying what he’s learnt to the ADE crowd, e.g. the benefit of limiting samples in front of you to give a focus. He then starts arranging a completely new track on the fly.
When it all comes together it’s pretty amazing to see the creative opportunities before you without a computer in sight!
Twitter http://twitter.com/DJ_SneakJonty Skrufff - ADE 2019DJsounds2020-02-05 | Sisyphos resident and man behind their latest Hammahalle techno floor compilation Jonty Skrufff joined us for a new DJsounds Show on the decks at ADE 2019.
In terms of DJ technique Jonty is big on hot cues, looping, layering and re-editing. By utilising multiple parts of tracks vs playing tracks end to end, he makes full use of the 2 banks of 4 hot cues throughout. Whilst this approach takes a fair bit of pre-set preparation it has the advantage of being able to quickly respond to crowd reaction and ensure no single set, or track, is ever the same.
