Although technology has changed the way we live and interact with each other, I just realized that after amassing vinyl records, CD's, reel to reels, cassettes, digital audio tape, and various other DJ related electronics that most the items in my studio is now obsolete.
I asked myself, what am I gonna do with all theses records? This vary music that is housed in my studio and which takes up the space of the entire room can now all fit in a flash drive that can be carried in my 5th pocket of my blue jeans. The answer to my question come to me with ease, Earth dosen't need more discarded stuff thrown into her belly, such as a land fill...a big hole in the ground. This very library that I have been building for the past 30 years contains artifacts that represents an era of yesterday, you know, the 20th Century. Because of the willingness and openness of my students I can now inspire, educate, and share my life's work with the many persons that are training to be the next generation of DJ's
