congratulations - but in case you didn't notice, it was never about beating anyone. I just don't react well to people going "what kind of DJ are you".

on the contrary; I think beatmatching is ridiculously easy. I use traktor scratch, but that doesn't mean I use the sync button
that's what the sexiness of vinyl is about.

of course I do - but I haven't been recording any for the last five years (except a short drum'n bass demo I made for a UAF compo around april this year). also, I don't host them on my site. I send them out on demand. believe it or not, but if you're based in germany, it's risky to host stuff like that on your site; there is a group of lawyers who specialize in being assholes towards DJs (several of my friends have already had unpleasant letters in their mailbox) and I'm not taking any risks. I prefer to spend my money on equipment and music rather than on lawsuits.
as to music, I have a crapload of my own bootlegs which, again, are not the thing I would host on my site. I spin them, they work, that is enough. the stuff I make myself is purely live-oriented - and, like I said in my introductory post on this forum, I'm humble enough not to call myself a producer just yet. when I choose to release my music, which will happen eventually, I have to be completely satisfied with the result.
I must say I envy you for being based in the UK, because they have a huge scene. most germans have a big stick up their asses and it's a bit harder over here if you spin the stuff I do.
