Bootlegger, blogger and DJ Frenchbloke just made computer DJ mixing even easier, with a wonderfully catchy, tongue in cheek mix of pop hits that displays, click by click, how he put it together using Sony's Acid Pro software program.
Cramming in dozens of tracks from Mel & Kim, The Human League, The Carpenters and Jeans Team to name just a few, the mysterious Frenchbloke painstakingly shows every cut, edit and little fix needed to make a computer mix work.
But why give away the not-so-secret trade secrets of the modern digital DJ? For a very good cause: Inspired by the loss of fellow bootlegger and blogger Ctel’s son to cancer, Frenchbloke made this tutorial to raise research money for children’s brain tumors.
According to his blog about the mix, which is hosted by Acid Ted, more children die from brain tumors than any other childhood cancer, which is more than reason enough to bust out your credit card and start donating. Link below.
