"Lewitinn usually has about 50 CDs on hand with a mix of songs, from George Michael’s “Freedom” to Bon Jovi’s “Living On a Prayer,” when she does parties, tending to play more popular Top 40 songs in clubs while saving the cutting-edge stuff for smaller venues. Unlike many other D.J.’s, she eschews the popular computer program Serato Scratch Live to manage her playlists and instead uses CD players connected to a mixer because of the greater discipline it forces upon her."

Haha. No, really, Serato is such a pain in the ass … but come on! CDs force discipline? Um, schlepping 50 pounds of vinyl on the subway enforces discipline! Rewiring mixing boards on the fly to bypass Serato and accommodate a venue’s dusty turntables enforces discipline.  Edit from Pinkie:  Having your own headshells and the ability to yell at a sound guy to go get another turntable while you’re using the other one enforces discipline.

I don’t mean to sound crabby (or to kick the perennial lamebody Lewitinn) but sheesh.
