    I think it's best to at least start on vinyl for a couple of years – then move to CDs or ableton. Learning to mix properly is a wicked thing to do and will make you so fucking happy when you finally get two in line and you start calling people going "LISTEN TO THIS!!!!".

    I've been DJing for ten years, not seriously but have a good time messing around with ableton & just appreciating music.

    Just because you want to DJ and play music doesn't mean you have to be the best scratch DJ on the planet and do something totally original (like half the people on this board will have you believe)......I love just mixing cracking deep house & techno at home and at parties – I'm a better designer than a DJ anyways!
