Pioneer DDJ T1 and DDJ S1 Controllers

March 18, 2011 By Dave Mac

2010 was a big year for Pioneer DJ equipment as their products continued to dominate the global DJ community with a brand new range of media players and mixers. When their flagship CDJ-2000 was introduced in the latter part of 2009, this may have signaled the beginning of the end of the CD era for […]

Reloop Contour Interface Edition

March 18, 2011 By Damien Albetto

Reloop DJ Gear. It may not spark a light of familiarity in your memory banks right off the bat like some of the other better known names but that certainly does not mean it isn’t a quality product. To the contrary, this German brand was established in 1996 and professes to be β€˜Europe’s leading brand […]

Vestax VCI-100 MK2

March 18, 2011 By Dave Mac

The Vestax VCI-100 was the first DJ Controller that made me look up and notice where the future of DJing was heading. Up to that point DJ software and indeed the handful of controllers that were available at the time were all a little rudimentary and too β€˜toy-like’ to be taken seriously. The VCI-100 with […]

Traktor Kontrol S4

March 18, 2011 By Dave Mac

Native Instruments’ Next Generation ControllerΒ and DJ Software Finally I got to try out Native Instruments’ new Traktor Kontrol Β S4. It’s been a long time coming simply because as the stock landed so it has sold out. What really excited me and indeed many, many people worldwide who have rushed out and bought the product is […]

Album Review: DJ Mbuso – The Reconstruction (Universal Music)

March 17, 2011 By Dave Mac

<Urban House> DJ Mbuso is back. For a while it seemed he had disappeared completely from the South African house music landscape… but really it seems that all he actually wanted to do was write music and produce his own beats. It’s a good thing too β€˜cos The Reconstruction consists of 16 well crafted urban […]

Album Review: Back To Back Vol.5 Presented By Marcin Czubaia (Mobilee)

March 17, 2011 By Damien Albetto

<House> Mobilee’s Back to Back compilation series has been a staple part of the imprint’s release schedule over the years. Originally started by Anja Schneider, it has since been presented by GummiHz, Miss Jools and most recently And.ID with his unique jazz interpretations of classic Mobilee tracks although to be honest I found And.ID’s offering […]

Album Review: Faithless – The Dance Never Ends (Just Music)

March 17, 2011 By Dave Mac

<Commercial House> Hot on the heels of their world tour and indeed, their visit to South Africa , as well as the release of their album The Dance last year, arrives this double disc deluxe edition called The Dance Never Ends. Now the first time The Dance was reviewed in IDM it was cited as […]

Album Review: Zakes Bantwini – Love, Light And Music (Universal)

March 17, 2011 By Seeka

<Urban House> Zakes! What’s not to like about the man Zakes. If you’ve ever watched him perform or better still, watched him dance you’ll have to admit… the boy’s got talent… and then some. From the opening track where he croons in his groovy soulful voice, β€œYou give me butterflies” you want to believe him. […]

Album Review: Deeper Dimensions – With Mr Blanket (Naked Grooves)

March 17, 2011 By Seeka

<Urban House> Naked Grooves have been pushing out a steady flow of really good deep urban house compilations. All the music is original and whilst a lot of what is being called urban house these days is very much a sort of Afro/urban deep house, the stuff these guys are putting out really epitomises the […]

Album Review: Caro Emerald – Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor (Just Music)

March 17, 2011 By Dave Mac

<Swing/Jazz/Charleston> Okay so some may wonder what this is doing in a dance music magazine as it is not filed strictly under dance music, but this ballroom jazzy Charleston-tinged debut album by Dutch singer Caro Emerald is exactly the kind of groovelicious retro type offering that’ll please many fans of artists such as Parov Stelar, […]
