intriguing!! i've always wanted to do a "pass the aux" type event but scared of the results, this feels like a happy medium. how did you do this technically? were you just downloading songs on the spot with rekordbox up on your laptop?

we went raw audio into the fourth channel of the mixer and played it right off spotify. i wanted to keep things as simple as possible. there’s an app you can use as a front end that can slowdown records (i think it’s called amazing slowdown machine) but i remembered it too late and didn’t have it set up properly. beatmatching is maybe not as important as we might think it is!

I think this piece might've helped me find the version of "You Got the Stuff" that I've been hunting for for a couple years now. Thank you!

Really fun. How to get an invite to a future one of these nights? Am in the LA area.
