Lesson Beginner Stage 0: Before You Start November 2007

Contents of the video

Hi folks, Jonathan here. I had an email from a chap, a YouTube user by the name of TGGimo. Now they've given me a wicked idea. I'm going to dedicate this next selection of videos to them. Occasionally I do get people who give me an idea for a video and if they do give me an idea for a video I always give them a shout. Now what this YouTube user has asked for is they said where can I find MP3s On the internet for usage with regards to CDJs, in other words they like to do turntablism, cutting and scratching but only on CD players. Where can they find the MP3s from? Let's give me an idea and that is where do I get? How do I get these things? Okay what I want you to do, I would like you to go on the web have a look at places and then if you find a decent place

Where you can find MP3s for usage for turntablists, samples, that's what we're looking for. Then post the actual website underneath this video. I'm going to do a selection of these videos for different aspects of DJing. So the beauty about it is, let's say for example you want to buy a turntable. Well you can go to the video on turntables and you can find websites maybe in your area where they sell turntables, perhaps CD players, perhaps amplifiers etc. And of course the thing is, the more information we can get underneath these particular videos, the more people will look and go to these videos and think, yeah, alright, you know, this guy perhaps knows what he's on about, let's go and check out certain places. Because at the end of the day, there's a lot of people out there that want to know where to find things, but the web is one hell of a big place, okay? It's a nightmare, isn't it?

Alright, so this video dedicated to T.G. Jimmo, alright? I'm sure these videos will get a little bit better and a little bit smaller as time goes on but thank you to him, alright? What he's looking for, he or she beg your pardon, is looking for MP3s for usage with regards to CDJs, he's looking for samples, okay? For cutting and scratching, for turntablism, alright? Thanks for watching, practice and enjoy!
