Drop the Beat: Introduction to Digital DJ-ing

This was my first presentation that I had ever done at CLA and it was during the first ever night track! It was a lot to lug around and set up, and not as many people showed up as I would have liked, but it was still a great experience. I got to talk to the few that came for a while and connect in that sense. It also gave me an understanding of how professional associations are about giving back to the library community. Talking to people who were interested in DJ-ing in libraries made me feel like I was contributing to shaping the library community in my own small way, or at least I hope I am.

If you are interested in subject matter, you can take a look at my Powerpoint presentation for the session (http://www.slideshare.net/MelvinRacelis/drop-the-beat-introduction-to-digital-djing). Here is a photo of one vinyl record that I had pressed for the winner of the DJ battle, but we ended up not having the battle (actually just an old drum and bass record with a new label).
