I think the old concept of a dj mix is (ideally) on
the way out. Although i mix with vinyl, i think there's
so many more tools for doing interesting digital mixes,
that its bound to come into its own as a valid form of mixing.
The physical aspects will be downplayed to a much higher
appriciation for sequencing and editing.
At least, i'd like to see some djs take things this way.
I haven't really had the time, and don't have all the tools
that i'd like to to do this.
