    If you had to give up spinning the genre(s) you spin now.....

    .....and switch to something else, what would you choose?

    I spin hip-hop, funk, soul and the occasional tune from various EDM genres. I think I would switch to 80s music and by that I mean stuff that was in the UK pop charts during the 80s. I listen to a lot of it, even though I've never DJed with it. That said, I dunno how quickly I'd get tired of doing that, haha, but I'd give it a go.

    That's a tough one. It's a tossup between finnish polka and mongolian throat singing.

    I've played everything dude. (none of it well though), now I'm putting it all aside and sticking to the ones I love which is still, all of them. Anyways, though I have played in Hip-Hop in the past, it's never been my main gig. I can do some very basic scratching. More than just, rubbing the record with the fader in the middle, but not like anything you'd see battle Djs doing (Though I'd love to learn), but yeah. Definately Hip-Hop. I have a collection of Hip Hop on both Cd and Vinyl. I play a lot at mobile gigs also, but I play it like its House music as in, I beat mix it, sample it, loop it etc, I don't really do it like a turntablist would. So, that's what I'd do.

    I'd say DnB also. I've played a tiny little bit in that arena, but locally they fucking hate me with passion. I still love DnB tho. I have a collection of it in my Traktor (where as the Hip-hop has never been loaded in, tho one day i should), and yeah. I love it. Especially the more melodic stuff.
