(Not Moderated)
The purpose of this group is the discussion of matters
pertaining to the art and pursuit of DJing, with the emphasis on
DJing in the UK. Suitable topics include discussion of DJ
hardware such as turntables, CD decks and mixers; mixing
techniques; and DJ charts, mailing list info and feedback. The
group is NOT for the discussion of the merits of "name" DJs,
commercial mix tapes and general discussion on dance music -
these topics belong in various other groups such as
alt.music.dance, alt.music.house, alt.music.techno, alt.rave and
uk.music.rave.
Advertising

for the attention of other DJs
- Job advertisements from commercial concerns for SPECIFIC jobs are
allowed, and may be posted in any quantity except that each post must

general Agency services, are allowed but are limited to two

are NOT acceptable.
