Whatup Reddit! I’ve seen the pioneer DJM series, peeps looping vinyl and adding layers. Wondering you can do the same w Rane for vinyl?

Vinyl enthusiast of Reddit! Once again, here I am. Looking to build another set. This one goes out to the djs with 2 copies, to double up, loop and jam. Open to Original Electro / Freestyle ( Pretty Tony, Freestyle, Kraftwerk), 90s house anthems( Inner City, Armand Van Helden, Bucketheads), jazzy soul ( Blackbryds, Lonnie Liston, Joe Bataan), hip hop breaks. Artist just go give some reference. Drop a comment, so I can DM. Motivated and all for the love of music.

It’s that time for another bundle. Anyone with a list/ bundle of assorted flavors to spin and party rock. Can be 7/12 “ singles/ doubles, comps, LPs. Need help with stack as theres no options to dig/ purchase where I am. Hit me with a list/ spreadsheet/ media of what’s available.
Made a few purchases prior, time for another.
Thanks in advance!

Howdy friends! It’s that time, I’m back and ready for another bundle. They can be 45s, 12” singles, compilations, LPs. Some of this and some of that. Let’s make something happen.

Seriously no hate, so don’t hate! Really trying to understand, why people who run their own business do not respond to inquiries. Been up here 2 years. Would say I’m apart of community, do my part supporting local as well as spreading the word on events and things happening. I also provide a service as a musician/ entertainer. Why is business choose not to reply to email, or contact back when leaving a message via phone/ text/ voicemail? Why is it these Alaskan business owners rather ignore than respond? Personally, I’d rather be rejected( sorry we are not interested, or we don’t have a budget, any response really). Instead, it’s just cold air. As this point, just frustrated and really attempting to understand.
TLDR; why Alaska business owners choose to ignore/ not respond to inquiry instead of rejecting?

Howdy yall! Been here in Anchorage a few months now and figured out the spots I enjoy. It’s Friday night and I’m looking to read a book/ flip thru a zine/ surf the web… all I know is Barnes and Noble, but I’d rather go to a local/ mom pop joint. Anything for this evening? I don’t drink/ don’t know how I’d do in a bar setting?

Peace peace. I write this to get these thoughts freeed from my mind. It’s no shade directed, just my recent observation and current experiences. The EDM/ CDJ definitely got fat, clean sound! They are warm and inviting, as I’m new to the region and was able to hop on open decks. It’s cool to hear songs I haven’t heard before. Just trying to understand, how they never mess up. I don’t notice too many fader or jog wheel/ platter action. Curious because at open decks, I only have the Numark dj2go and I was just utilize it like a toy cutting it up, mixing, using the platter. Also off beat here and here. And having a gradual build up. Tonight I was at a dj night, it’s 630 and they got it steady at 115. Big question, how would one invite them to a friendly battle? I’ve not battled before but am up for it, just for fun.

Howdy! I’m in a new town temporarily til end of summer for a credential program. Hit up a 2-3 shops without a response, so I follow up w a 20 min tailored mix. One response back after sharing they had not good experience w dj. So we are emailing, they got an event coming and forward me to their event collaborator to work out details. They same questions I asked the original shop; I ask the collaborator and they refer me back to the original. The kicker is the collab doesn’t have a budget, willing to play as the shop has a nice sound system. So I hint at a barter; store credit ( coffee shop), some merch? The collab doesn’t give me direct answer, just says that’s a good idea. So I email the shop again, summarizing what the collaborator and I discussed. The shop does not acknowledge any bartering/ store credit/ merch. And lastly; refers the sound guy to answer questions. Sound guy ends up redirecting my original question back to the shop. Back at step one. So I with drew my interested.

Am I in the wrong? I was open to bartering, but felt as shop owner was cold. How would yall handle it?
