New DJ Setup – Traktor Kontrol S4
Apr 16th
This week I purchased the Traktor Kontrol S4 – a usb controller perfectly designed for the Traktor Pro software, and after using it briefly this week, I’m very much impressed with it.
Before I was using Denon DNS1200 cd players to control the software via MIDI, which worked very well but after the the announcement of Traktor Pro 2, there were some things that just weren’t possible to do or far more difficult to do – mainly the sample decks and using 4 decks to make far more interesting and dynamic mixes.
The Kontrol S4 now combines all the controls needed for the Pro software, not to mention the use of the internal mixer and ability to record mixes in the software itself – without the need of additional sound card or cables and software.
My DNS-1200 CD players, which have been great ever since I first bought them, will now be sold on ebay, so if you’re interested in buying them off me, let me know! They’ll soon be posted on here once I post them on ebay.
The Phantom’s Revenge – B*stard Can Do Twin Town (Edit)
Jan 17th
An edit of The Phantom’s Revenge “B*stard Can Do 90″, replacing the samples with samples from the film “Twin Town” – a 1997 film based in my hometown Swansea – a film very well known down here!
More edits coming soon, including This Is Miami (Sander Kleinenberg) “This is Swansea” version.
I’m now on SoundCloud, check out my profile here

DJ Kevin-E – Be Water (Intro – 1st Draft)
Jul 19th
I’ve been using Logic Pro for a week now after buying an IMac and have been playing around with different sounds. Here’s my first draft of an intro of a track with some Bruce Lee samples (more to come). A quick first draft, hopefully I can develop it into a full track sometime soon. I’m a beginner in Logic Pro but let me know what you think. Sorry for the poor quality video, it was ripped from youtube.

Daft Punk – the kings of sampling. Here’s where they get their inspiration from for their funky, french house music:
