03 Rather drive analog than automatic!
This year i play different set, Vinyls, CDs and Controller and it was very important to try out which is my taste and i can definetly say i will play with CDs and built an old school CDJ Set, because first they’re cheaper than vinyls and second controller and stick are very good and dont need to carry heavy physical media, but i love play analog and wants to take control.
Its the equivalent to drive cars, that automatic and electronic are good, but a good driver is someone who still drive analog, because they doesnt rely on the mashine rather their skill and experience. You can use it exactly like this when you're DJing with CDs or vinyl, or with a sampler and drum machine. But it is important to choose, what you like and have fun, because it is nothing wrong to play with controller or drive a Tesla you know, to each his own!
