But again, this list really isn't about DJing skills anymore...


That's the truth right there.

I'm not sure how you guys feel about it, but i personally like the transition from mixing on CDJ's and vinyl to artists mixing out of Ableton and/or other production/performance programs through a midi controller.

There are some guys out there that are insanely talented at it, but it's not "traditional" so it gets overlooked.

I as well, Ableton users are talented I am sure, but live mixing is simply great.

Most DJs are some kind of a music producer so they go hand in hand. Hybrid was real big for me back when I was still into the 'scene' I know they basically spun and made music at the same time.

True that. Anyone who just talks about how DJs not using vinyl aren't talented might as well be using a rotary phone too.
