THE RETURN OF THUNDERBALL!!

THUNDERBALL [ ESL Music | Fort Knox Recordings ] **EXCLUSIVE DNB SET**
http://www.districtsoul.com/images/bj/thunderball.jpg
Thunderball expertly craft cinematic, dub-laden compositions full of intrigue, effortlessly changing tempos between D&B, breakbeat and downtempo. Steve Raskin and Sid Barcelona are the agents behind Thunderball, drawing from their love of ‘60s cinema, Brazilian beats and Afro funk rhythms, to create explosive soundscapes designed for modern spy chases and late night encounters. Their music has been featured all over the place from prime time commercial spots for Toyota and Mercury, to TV shows like ALIAS, and Queer Eye For The Straight Guy. The list goes on and on.. Hailing from Thievery Corporation's own ESL Music imprint, the future is looking very bright for these two young men. Tonight, Thunderball will showcase a very special drum and bass set for 5:DNBsessions. Get ready for the funk!!


BOBBY JAE [ Upfront | District Soul ]

Mastering the sultry, sexy sounds of DC drum and bass, Bobby Jae never fails with his impeccable mixing and top-notch selection. With collaborations in the studio and a new CD in the works, Bobby is taking soulful drum and bass to a level of its own. If you haven’t already, make sure to get your copy of Perpetual Motion tonight which was 1 of 7 mixes recognized in URB magazine’s Mix-It Best.


WINTERMAN [ Winternett.com | Ziion ]

Yakko Red

If Eric or Liam had peed on me I would have been in jail for murder today.


I got there and there was a 5 month old pug named Biscuit, we all know how I love pugs, and pretty much I proved last night that even if one peed on me, I wouldn't have any hard feelings about it.

I was pretty saucey by that point anyways.

All the best booths pretty much have the Rane 2016 as a standard..

learn it, love it, lick it

ive never actually met someone who enjoys using rotary mixers tho. but to its defense, its supposed to pump out the best sound quality. you'd think rane or whoever would come out w/ a mixer thats as well made as this 2016, but is designed more like a pioneer djm 600. best of both worlds ya know?

It is way better than a Pioneer. I love that mixer. You can still use the crossfader with the EQ attachment plate.

The way those Rotary knobs blend tracks is unreal and the quality is unmatched.

If you need to use effects...well, use two records :wink:

oh im not even referring to the effects. Just the layout. Crossfader at the bottom in the middle. Upfaders for volume control above the crossfader. I don't honestly see any reason why a knob should "sound" any better than a fader.

The knobs don't make it sound different, it is how the mixer processes the sound. The knobs just give you IMO better control of the volume of the tracks, if you use two knobs at the same time to blend it really does a great job of blending, even better than traditional upfaders and a crossfader used together. Rane makes plenty of the traditional layout mixers, this one is made like that for a reason. I'm not an electrical person but I imagine that to get that level of sound quality requires the mixer to be so large hence why the eq's are on a whole different attachment. Plus it is rack mounted and more of a perm. fixture in a complete sound system.

It really is pretty much the standard in all large clubs around the world.

Not very scratch friendly I agree, but it can be done, I have done it many times in that booth.

Heh, it makes your head hurt when you drink the expensive stuff... Patron is evil!

I'm not sayin to go for the bottom brands either, the middle is the place....

Sammy Hagar from Van Halen moved down to Mexico and now he makes a Tequila called Cabo Wabo..... its ridiculously good...

But Cuervo Gold gets the job done as well... :wedgie:

Kids, Kids, Kids...

Vodka or Bodka as it is really called is the bestest and the smoothest.

Ketel One is probably the best and smoothest you can get stateside without going on a serious hunt.

and Ketel One as a mixer... I don't know about all that... it is best when drank straight... at least in my own personal opinion.

So Yvonne? Are we getting our Ketel One on, on Wednesay? I hope so...

And also... the Rane Rotary is the best mixer overall. For straight mixing, it is the smoothest. Granted it is probably better for house or techno or some 4/4 biz. I like the Urie better, but no one will ever come close to the original. Pioneer 600's suck. They really have problems distorting when you hit past 3 bars of red.

My personal favorite mixer would have to be the Rane Empath. That joint is hot. Dope crossfader, the best EQs, totally contourable, 3 channels, fader starts, all types more. The bomb!!!

So you catz at Five tomorrow night. It is one!!!

Just remember these things for that mixer and you will be fine-

-get used to the cue channel selector, it is also a rotary knob you have to dial in to what channel you want to cue...it takes some getting used to.

-Use the Rotary knobs for volume and keep this in mind- the slope is kind of weird...the volume wont noticeably get louder till about number 7 on the dial (about 3o'clock) and will pump up to 10. So most of your mixing will be done in about the 6-10 range, anything lower wont be real noticeable.

like every club- keep her out of the red and your eyes on the wood and you'll do fine :)

Ain't that the truth. The Goose is super smooth, but it is rugged on the hangover tip!!!
Ketel One is no hangover. It is great stuff, wake up the next morning and drink another bottle... Just kidding... I am not really like that. Well sort of.

ahhhhhhh

thats why I was so retarded after the last 5 party

I was drinkin cranberry grey gooses all night thinking man this is hot I got some nice liquor no hangover

and BAM

I feel like complete ass the next day

I'll have to either just go with smirnoff or try ketel 1

missmurrr
2005-03-09, 03:59 PM
definetly stick with the ketel 1

JonH
2005-03-09, 04:34 PM
Yo Pete,

Smirnoff really sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just stick with Ketel One. It is the shit. Man... I am telling you... I have had some nightmare hangovers with the Goose. If I drink a bunch of that stuff... I won't feel right for days. It is super smooth, but it hurts the head.

Also this other stuff is really hard to find, but it is the best I have found in the USA. It is called ZYR. It is available in NYC and Miami. My brother's best friend from college worked in Moscow, and he purchased this Vodka Company. It is super smooth. I always have a bottle at the crib. It is really great stuff. But Hear Dis! Vodka is not made for mixing. It is supposed to be drank on the rocks or straight shot. You got that... so no more cranberries sucka!

See you tonight.

Werd up!

her mixing, wow. i constantly feel humbled by DJ friends of mine, and now my g/f? jeezus. oh, and to everybody that thinks i'm saying this just to get ass...choke on a biscuit.

good to get out & see the bitches, i mean fellas. good to see yvonne & bobby, thomas, steve, ramon, evey, cliff...basically all the fucktards who i haven't seen in a minute.

(the whole town knows you did Frank)

I'm not big into the dnb but I will say that Hitoi had a good track selection that made me groove out a little, and if it was her first time on a rotary she did a fine job IMO.

A little disapointed that the roof didn't open up sooner so Sanborn and Ken could drop some tunes but when it did I definitely got my dance on.

Good stuff.
