The reason why Jeff is still around and so relevant is because he adapts to the new technology and isn't afraid to change his ways for the future. So many producers, DJs and artists get so butthurt when new things or advanaces come along and there like well what about this or that... Man we've been using turntables for like 60 years. There needs to be a new advance and I myself use turntables so I go through the same issues he states. Jeff is about the kids and the future man. Always keeping fresh and mentoring people on the come up.

Jeff Kleist

He also invents half of it, or how to use it. The man is a Les Paul of DJs

@Greg Pappas exactly...its not worth responding to especially since he can't with no real basis articulate a rational reasoning behind his blurted out statement.

Daniel O

He was one of the first to switch to Ableton

Greg Pappas

Inter RaciAL hahahah I just read this...if you’re an actual DJ who is Actually Djing you’re using something with a proper platter like turntables or cdjs. Yeah sure
You can rock a party with a controller but it’s more than that for the real ones. Night night little baby 🍼

Jeff produces really nice albums, that don't get the recognition they deserve and are mostly produced by Kev Brown.

Jeff is a legend and i actually do really admire him as a DJ as well as a producer.

Much obliged. Been a fan since the 'Drums, please!' It's nice to see an established artist keeping an open mind to new concepts. This video is much more than just a new tech video. It's about acceptance.

Not everyone has it. A huge lesson in keeping your inner child alive and well. Shine on!

At a certain time in history there was probably some people telling the guy that invented the sustain pedal for the piano that it’s cheating. “If you want a long sustained note, keep your finger on the key bro”...... It’s like: The sampler = cheating........Tape and records in general = cheating (“it’s not the same as playing live bro”)............. My point: there are always people that are against new technology when it comes to music. But fortunitely there are also people that embrace and use it to innovate and create new technique’s and styles/genres/sounds.

Greedo Kenobi

W B Yup!

When it comes to music, most ppl view skill in a raw form. They want to see human beings doing incredible things with as little 'help' as possible. So yeah it makes sense that some would consider it cheating. By they same token technology is amazing, and enables musicians to do incredible things that are either literally impossible to do manually, or very hard to do to the point it's not worth it to learn, and so some musicians use the technology to their musical advantage.

Look at peter Frampton. You think he could do that crazy robot voice with the mic if the technology didn't exist? He's mastee of that skill and everyone loves it and think he's amazing. Unless it's like blatent cheating then technology only offers innovation and advantage to any musician 👍

@Nikomi Yozo thought the whole point being a good dj was being in control of the set like that - i dunno, im ignorant about the process these days - no needle just makes me think why not push play on an ipod and walk away

Nikomi Yozo

6y↑5

unless I'm wrong it's motion control vinyl where the record itself doesn't need a needle using timecode (midi control through a record player) in a way that changes the game foe DJing as a whole allowing crazy sets without the fear of bumping your setup and loosing place.

AMAZING! Thanks for making me aware of this unbelievable breakthrough! Your Boiler Room studio set is still one of my favorite DJ sets of all time, any genre. I really value & appreciate your apparent knowledge of music history, the vast depths you pull your record/samples choices from, and seeing you so psyched to embrace new technology is great to, bringing the past & future together in harmony in a really powerful way. And it’s always clear that you do it all for the love of music.

I CANNOT WAIT to see what people do with this new generation of emergent technologies. Just in the last few days I’ve been learning about digital displays that play holograms you can move around & see from different angles without the need for any kind of glasses, a technology that produces “holograms” you can actually hear & touch, not through traditional holography (with light), but by using sound waves to levitate a little tiny bead, & then using a computer to program the sound waves to change the frequencies being played throughout the space so that the ball is made to move around so fast in whatever pattern we play that when we illuminate it it creates the appearance of a hologram, but one which can actually make sounds & have a tactile presence... Then I found out about synthetic biology— how there are already start-up companies in existence which are coding DNA from the ground up to invent lifeforms that never had an evolutionary lineage on the Earth... And these are just a few examples that happen to be on my mind. The regime of technologies that we’re coming up on as we advance is getting into some really crazy shit right now, & it’s only going to get crazier. Buckle up! It’s extremely exciting, but also scary (especially given the form of hierarchical class society we’re living in, where people’s access to new technologies is limited by their wealth/poverty & the majority are on the poor working-class side). They could have unimaginable benefits, & by the same token they could cause absolute catastrophe. But in the arts, in music, it is going to be AMAZING to see how we progress. There are pretty limitless possibilities opening up. We’re getting to the point where, if you have a computer, there’s virtually not a sound you couldn’t somehow make... And now it seems the question is to find novel ways of interacting with or performing whatever specific sounds we reify, make manifest, from that huge range of possible sounds.

OMG, This is game changing . . I was born in 86 as the son of a dj!!! was djing on tec 1200s since 9 years old, by the time i hit 15 16 [ 03 04] i was pretty dam good but unfortunately turntables were dying. . . :( especially since everything was mp3 and cdjs I have a set of my dads original tec 1200s from the 80s but they well worn, and will not dvs for crap [bad circle on the dvs] and need so much work to be like new :( I dont want to get rid of them because they were passed to by my father but I can not do the things i did on them i did growing up. AND MISS TURNTABLEISM SO MUCH!!!!!!!! WELL IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS ABOUT TO CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!! Dj Jazzy Jeff your smile was exactly the same i mine as i saw you playing on those, like a kid in a candy shop!!!!!!1 you have no idea!!!!!!!!!!! its gonna bring my 35 year old technic 1200s back from the grave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE VID!!!!!!!!!!!!!

M.Joseph Ali

You can use serato with vinyl and needles just like the old days. Only difference is no more carrying crates around. You load the songs instantly from your laptop to your deck. Look into a serato battle mixer

Ron Laws

I would argue given their sentimental value to you personally, no price to too high to have them fully restored to the glory they were when your dad raised the roof with them. :)

Markotik G

5y↑3

Man, this comment - I can relate 100% with every single thing you said... I still have my 1210’s that I bought on my 18th Birthday. That was 22 years ago - thing is, apart from changing cartridges a few times and switching from Stanton’s to Ortofon, they’ve had one single service done on them about 10 years ago when I noticed the tone arm starting to skate - nothing major but it got everything re-aligned and tightened up. Just like that, it was like the day they came out of the shop. Technics are amazing - quite literally, perfect - always have been.
I was in an accident a couple of years ago and was left unable to stand unassisted- so that meant the end of my DJing career. Can’t scratch sitting down - was really gutted. You’ll know exactly how I was feeling - I did get into using DVS with Traktor but now I just use an S4, 2 x F1’s and 2 x Midi-Fighters but it’s not the same.
I’ve sold just about all my DJ kit now but no way could I ever sell my 1210’s - even though I don’t mix with them anymore, they’re just far too sentimental to get rid of. The memories. Always makes me smile when I glance at them and I remember a party or a club night or even just thinking back, learning to mix, with all my mates piling round to my folks house 😄

I did mess up a bit with drugs at one point - and it turned really low but to be honest, even though it was entirely the dance music scene that introduced me to pills n powder in the early nineties - I wouldn’t change it for the world. Best times of my life - I fucking love mixing

The unit needs to be more flat/flush though. One can’t really put your fingers any where near the center of the record w/o fear of clipping the unit. It may make things uncomfy if trying to quickly rewind the record too.

They’re gonna have a hit though and they got the right guy to jump on board.

@Jef Damen this is only for use on turntables

@Mac Joseph Idk, without turntables it defeats it's purpose, which is scratching and keeping timecode/pitch up and down.
U need something that turns or u are better off using internal timecode in traktor.
