The CDJ-2000s are quickly replacing the CDJ-1000Mk3 as the industry standard player in the world’s biggest clubs, while the CDJ-900 takes root in regular clubs. The new CDJ-350 has now launched, offering the most affordable rekordboxTM compatible deck for the beginner DJ, but left a gap for semi-pro bedroom DJs and bars. Pioneer today announce the complete rekordboxTM enabled CDJ line-up with the new CDJ-850.

Intentionally designed to feel and function like other CDJ models further up the range, the CDJ-850 will give that all important reassurance when turning up to a gig with other CDJ models in the booth. And just as budding DJs practiced on the CDJ-800 at home in preparation for their club gigs on the CDJ-1000, the CDJ-850 is set to become the new training ground for DJs hoping to break it on the club circuit.

Mark Grotefeld, Head Of Marketing, Pioneer DJ Europe: “The CDJ-850 is a great option for DJs wanting to familiarise themselves in home set-ups along with the infinite possibilities digital DJing developments are bringing to the artform.”

Apart from the ProDJ Link connection, the CDJ-850 inherits so many of the most exciting features from the CDJ-2000 and 900, offering major enhancements over the outgoing CDJ-800MK2.

The full-size 206mm jog wheel will be familiar to all existing professional CDJ users, giving the same performance and feel as the top range products. And no matter which CDJ you play on, the browsing logic is always the same and all the work put into customizing rekordbox collections will be available on every player in the range. So wherever DJs play, it will always feel like home.

Jason Pook, Product Development Manager, Pioneer DJ Europe, said: “We wanted the CDJ-850 to resemble the CDJ-2000 in as many ways as possible, so that the transition between using both is as smooth as possible. This we’ve achieved, while still bringing the system in at an affordable price.”

The CDJ-850 features the same large rotary select dial as the CDJ-2000 and is the most affordable product in the range to feature the Wave display to see peaks and drops of the music. An intuitive Tag List feature allows DJs to think ahead 10, 20 or many more tracks by arranging temporary set lists on the fly. They can save this as a playlist and recall it later in rekordbox or use it again at the next gig. And what’s more, it’s the only player to feature Tag List editing, so you can add, remove and change the order of tracks in the list.

Adapting to all ways of working, the CDJ-850 plays music from CD, USB and PC. Despite the price point, it’s capable of playing professional 24-bit Wav and Aiff, along with MP3 and AAC music files. It can be used as a Midi controller and 24-bit soundcard for music software, and with HID capability, software companies will be quick to announce Plug&Play support.

The CDJ-850 is available from August 2010. The suggested retail price is £799.

Pioneer’s CDJ 850 looks a lot like the 800 but with a new screen. Look a bit closer though and you’ll see it’s more than just a minor update. The 850 adds the new Pioneer rekordbox workflow which allows you to organise your music library just like the CDJ 2000. The main sticking point with this new piece of kit is the lack of hot cues. If you want more you’re going to have to upgrade to the cdj-2000 but if it’s not a big issue then the 850 will save you a bit of money and still work just as well.

Pioneer seem to like offering something for everyone. You can consider the 850’s middle of the road. Better than the 800’s but not as good as the 2000’s. Pioneer says this is for the semi pro and we’d have to agree, if you need more hot cues and some extra bells and whistles grab the 2000’s otherwise this will still wow the crowd.

No drugs were found on him in March when he was arrested by police but traces were found in his blood. The DJ has denied the charges, saying that the last time he smoked the drug was in December, whilst in Britain. But prosecutors said that test results showed he had consumed the drug whilst in the UAE.

In 2008, British DJ Grooverider was sentenced to four years in prison after being convicted of smuggling cannabis into the country.

The 40-year-old disc jockey, whose real name is Raymond Bingham, was detained at Dubai airport in November 2008 as he arrived to perform a gig, after he was found in possession of 2.16 grammes (0.076 ounces) of marijuana. He denied smuggling, claiming that he had forgotten the drugs were in his trouser pocket. He was however released after serving 10 months in prison. The UAE imposes strict penalties for all drug related offences, with four years being the usual sentence for possession whilst trafficking carries the death penalty.

It’s even been known for some more known DJs to buy all new equipment when travelling to the UAE in case of drug contamination on their equipment from shows in the UK and other areas of the world. So if you are planning on DJing in the UAE and we know a lot of you do play there, then be careful.

Turntablism. Turntablism is the art of manipulating sounds and creating music using phonograph turntables or digital turntables and a DJ mixer. The word ‘turntablist’ was coined in 1995 by DJ Babu[1] to describe the difference between a DJ who just plays records, and one who performs by touching and moving the records, stylus and mixer to manipulate sound. So go grab your decks, pull out your records and become the worlds greatest DJ and remember, it’s turntablism.
