You’ve heard the Afterhours 2009 opener, now we move on to what I feel was the surprise performance of the week: DJ Modulation. You know you are in for something special when a DJ rolls in with not just an Ableton, Serato or Traktor rig, but a rig that incorporates a few hardware synths. At this point, you step out from having just a standard DJ set and into blending the lines between a live PA and DJing. DJ Modulation certainly wasn’t the only one with a live PA rig, but his was the most unexpected. So, without further delay, here’s your download link and a bit more on DJ Modulation. {enclose specials_ah2009_djmodulation.mp3}
