Judging by the playlist – it appears the music is kind of all over the place, but knowing A-Trak and his skills- it’s bound to be tight!

I fully missed the memo on when these were coming out, but I was aware of them being released.

These kicks got released on January 9 2010 and no doubt every pair of these awesome kicks have been sold out. I bet none were released in Size 14US or 15US- None of these ever are!!

Anyway, check out the photos below and comment your thoughts

Here’s a clip of DJ Babu (one of my favourite DJ’s of all time) jamming at a gig in Chicago on the 22nd Of January. Babu and CXL need a Chirp battle!

DJ Babu- Live In Chicago:

You should have seen him live yourself at the Dilated Peoples show in Auckland. Babu smashed it!!!

Props to my man Jyeah for the heads up on the video clip above.

This mixer is set to see the 4th generation released and my lord have they made some changes.

This mixer isn’t yet confirmed as a release and the model you’re about to see is a prototype version of this mixer. I like what I see here, and if it’s going to be released, it could very well beat my current favourite mixer – the Vextax 08 Pro.

Basic changes:

• The Vestax 05 Pro 4 has MID range EQ (something the previous generations have lacked on)
• Has an Auxiliary Port
• Booth Volume Control
• Red Faceplate & Knobs
• Big Transform Switches
• External knobs to control Upfaders
• Fader curves controlled from the front of the mixer
• Dual Headphone Ports (Big & Small)
• Midi Buttons for various tasks (Scratch Live Compatible)

See the following video for a visual look of the mixer:

The Vestax 05 Pro 4:

I hope this comes into production and gets released. The Vestax 05 Pro is one of my favourite mixers to cut on. The current generations are annoying to mix on because the mid range isn’t adjustable.

Once again props to Gizmo and his team for the video hook up.
