G'day!

My first post ;)

So I've been collecting old skool funk and soul of various descriptions for years, but never really learned how to dj properly. I was somehow talked into playing a set at a party the other week, and despite mixing worse than a blind folded crack addicted monkey with a frontal lobotomy, I actually managed to get folks shaking it to my trashy funk and soul. Needless to say, I'm hooked! I've heard that actual drummers (not drum machines) on old vinyl is hard to beat mix to, but I wanna learn!! So here goes. Hope these forums can help  get me started. Cheers.

Breakcore makes up about 5% of electronic dance music enthusiasts. The scene in Melbourne (where I reside) is tiny, and the music tends to be made by odd people, and played in odd locations, like squats, or on the side of a river, or in peoples lounge rooms. Put simply, its generally too fucked up for general consumption, and there are very few venues that will cater for it, so they're mostly DIY. But I like it haha.
