[Dynagroove] What do you DJs think? DynaConvo

[aaron at tohzt.com]

I think it has something to do with being able to play a cd over and over
at your own convenience..  Half the time when someone hears you playing
out they aren't paying total attention, for whatever reason.  Drugs,
alcohol, hot date, whatever.....  With a cd that you can listen in your
own domain and bond with the music in  your own private way.

There is also the possibility that some djs are good on cd, but not live.

My favorite Cade cd is "It Happens on A Saturday Night."  It gets me
verklempt and sassy at the same time.  I love to sing along; it takes me
back to some good times.  One thing you can expect from Cade is that he
will be playing the cuts before they get labeled up and poorly remixed.

I am so excited to hear some new Lance and JT tracks tonight.  Jesus!

love,

_A
