Laptop Only DJ Mix! #SundayDJSkills

We're starting the year of #SundayDJSkills videos in a controversial way! Is 2019 going to be the year the DJ industry moves even further into the digital age?

We test out Serato DJ's new Serato Play expansion with Serato DJ Lite. With this expansion you can create a DJ mix just using a laptop and keyboard shortcuts.

This is how I started out practicing while I was waiting for my first controller to ship. :)

It's spectacular to see that what makes a DJ good is not their equipment. My sincerest congratulations! When I grow up, I want to be like you.

Djing is more of YOU than the equipment itself, equipment just enhances the djing in YOU. I endorse this is brilliant. Sometimes i am asked to sample just a few but i cannot say, "Wait, i will dash home to get my controller." Use what you have at your disposal to do the best that you can.

[dezinerdave]

Ya’ll put MistaJam in the mix! Tune!!!

[AZLATINDJ]

Very cool mix, saving this house mix for my chill out time, nice transitions, I only saw one noticeable error halfway in the mix (hitting the cue out of sync), I have tried mixing with only the laptop but you have to memorize all the shortcuts and I'm lazy.

[Juicylynx]

Would be happy to see the keyboard setting and button interface you kept, please

Why do the people, who has DJ equipment, tends to look down on people who mix solely on the laptop? Even though, they are using same software and recent updates...
