we have foundation threads in galore buddy.....you typing is a lil thick but what i get is you wanna start buying dubs?? and work with an artist but them always giving you problems with lyrics and styles ??......well welcome to the world

[Randy Rich]

not realy buying dubs i mean working wif ppl that r looking to be a artist they young between 16-22 so they just starting to write n start their craft so how do i help cause they play on the sound but do a little singing or dj on de side n dem good just lose focus thinking they have to sound like other ppl instead their selves

[nuclear inferno]

welllllllll all i can say is work with who works with you ......if them want to cross genre before establishing them selves in 1 then it is their problem...cause you can lead a

[mix master j]

it can never happen.u got to born around late 70s & 80s to have that vibes,kidz under 25, vibes to tape when them can fine one.or what they hear play in they yard.they cant be. what they not.
it was a real hard life ting.when it come to chat mic,to chat mic is a in born thing.,,now every man and them sister want to DJ and play sound,,,,

[nuclear inferno]

not goin say it never goin be but it real hard they have to see established sounds doing it first ...

[Randy Rich]

i knw it is a born thing n how ppl grow brings the lyrics talent or skill n yes they have to listen to back in de days sound n big sound but dem to knw how it start how and continue but thats wat um trying as de oldest pon de sound give them wat little knowledge i have of foundation n sound biz but i only knw cause i ask qustions i listen back any old dance i can find to knw wat tune or artist was bussin dem time deh n find out a lil bout the sounds n venues n wat made the dance so big or flop. i knw they aint doing the same but i tell them to do the same it would help if they even wana make a attempt in diss biz gotta knw where u cum from if u wana knw where u gona be

What you are trying to do is impossible, you need the old dj's, these new djs were not brought up on 70s and 80s, even the sounds that came out during that time do not play like that anymore, I could name a few(UK & JA), but I won't, what you need to do is link up with the old djs if you want that style, Please make sure you find a good selector first and foremost all teams need a manager the players are your selections, too many sounds nowadays have not got a good selector, and these sound owners especially in the uk some how think they are selectors, and they can't select a tune

PERSONALLY I DON'T SEE WHY THE NEW GENERATION OF YOUTHS CAN'T RUN A SOUND LIKE YESTER-YEAR......


MAYBE THEY CAN'T IMMITATE THE STYLE OF THE ORIGINAL SOUND DEM,BUT THAT MIGHT NOT BE A BAD THING.....
