CONTENTS/NOTES(continue on back):
1. DJ setup-2 turntables, mixer to mix 2 sources of audio
2. early forms of DJ-playing records(on radio, for example), fading out to another song that fades in
3. DJing evolved to fewer breaks between songs so people don't
4. leave dance floor
5. ealiest technique was "needle dropping" (hopefully at beginning of song)
6. records are analog technology, songs carved into plastic vinyl,
7. OJs became masters at recognizing where the beginning of
8. the song was on the record
"slip cueing" - platter is spinning, hold record with 1 hand, let go to begin playing music
putting hands on the vinyl used to be a no-no but it allows control as to where the record starts.
