yeah, for most people it takes years to figure out how to drop a needle on a record and watch it spin. if you learn how to do that on dnb records and you haven't practiced on house records then you'll probably be shocked to discover that it's really quite hard to drop a needle on a house record and watch it spin. it's a totally different experience and must be learned all over.
It was as if someone shook up a 6 foot can of blood soda and suddenly popped the top.

hey, I never said it was easy - I know a drum and bass dj who crossed over to house and he did it with relative ease

just wanted to recap a few threads:

DJ vs. musicians - asking a DJ if he's a musician is like asking him if he's a golfer. some DJs golf, some musicians spin toonz, some spin their own tunes.

So is copyright infringement a crime or a civil matter?
