If you can't spin vinyl, and you DJ, then that's your problem. Seriously. You can still be a DJ... Maybe, but you never put in the work or (more then likely) have the talent of a DJ who did it in the traditional fashion. Those are just the facts. I suggest every Digi-J try out some records and learn from what's come before too. It never hurts right? If you are a vinyl DJ there are a lot of different types of records you may come across, spinning each one has different challenges to be sure, but the one I've found that I feel deserves a mini-blog is the flexi-disc. They were tiny little records that you could bend.. Sometimes they came in magazines, seriously. Cool right? Below is a video of DJ Shadow spinning one, they are pretty weird.
