Yes, I liked it and yes I could follow it well. I am normally a bit edgy watching DiCaprio, but he was good in this.

Re: Saturday Open Thread (none / 0)

there is an instrumental by Be Bop Deluxe called Shine that is supposed to be played at 33, but speed it up to 45 and it absolutely rocks.

Once you rip to files though it's easy. Most heavy Finnish DJs seem to mix from files rather then CDs, so its easy to synch up two beats and pitch shift to either keep both tracks at their original pitch or even match pitches.

Ha, I'm afraid I have no idea what modern DJ-ing entails. I was at an event a few years back and the DJ kept up the same relentless beat for about 2 hours.

It was fine for about 15 minutes, then it got boring. I was light and shade, difference is good. Even zar trance has a variety of rhythms
