This interesting vid of Questlove and his sick record collection got me to thinking about how Serato has changed the game and opened up DJing to the masses.
Lemme jump on this soapbox real quick...
Few people that are just now getting into DJing will ever have that vinyl experience. They won't know what it's like to go from record shop to record shop, diggin in .25 cent bins and coming out with dusty fingers and a bag full of gems. They won't know what its like to mix without waveforms. They'll even be missing out on the simple experience of taking a record off the turntable, searching in the bag for a new record, and putting that one on the turntable.
So while your laptop DJing skills may be nice (let's be honest tho, it's really hard to still suck with a laptop), let's see you get down with a bag of real records. Noob.
