This video is ten years old today! A massive thank you to everyone who has shown love for it over the years and continues to support my various projects
Mad, had the urge to listen to this. Again and just seen it’s 10 years.. this was inspirational. It’s a classic. There is so many flips that can spin from this
At 4:50 you can flip into uptown funk for a red bull style routine
And to think you said you didn’t think was good enough at the time!!!
The table is still going strong too 😂
5yrs later and this is still one of the best routines
9.5 yrs still D O P E
Thanks for the continued support everyone. You're the best!
djjon1st Can I ask you a seriously honest and notatallarudeassquestion(s) - And we know this has been DONE TO DEATH, but I want to hear (read) it from you.
In regards to the Serato scratch live, or whichever system may be in use moreoften today, do you feel that actual vinyl handling talent and genuine beat juggling is a thing of the past?
If you take away your laptop, do you feel you could easily transition your current skillset back to where the culture of turntabilism started? (on Vinyl)
How do you feel about DMC as it is today? Would you prefer to gather your set on vinyl, lay your cues and go hard?Or spend easily more than 20 hours chopping samples and beats from digital media and performing 40% or the same workload vs vinyl while playing live?
A lot of DJ's today get all kind of shit thrown at them owing to the perception of "most of the work is done "electromagically", before the scenes, fastidiously preprepared, "might as well just press play and walk away - there's your routine" kinda thing - and I for one would love nothing more than to read these stupid-ass comments and know that none of the shit is true!
Beatmania.co.nz Yes this has been done to death...
-Yes, traditional vinyl skips more than DVS (yes, DVS can skip too, even in 'relative' mode, and is arguably harder to recover from as your sticker markers no longer relate to the audio), but the actual patterns, be they scratching or beat juggling are exactly the same to perform. In this set and countless other winning routines of recent years (Chris Karns, Switch, I-dee, Vekked, Unkut are just a few), DJs are winning DMC titles with traditional, non edited-chase based juggle routines.
-Yes, of course. I have battled in both vinyl and DVS based battles. However, there are techniques that DVS allow that are not possible with normal vinyl, such as loop and cue point based techniques. This is why, in my opinion, DVS is an obvious evolution from vinyl and why it should be embraced in turntablist battles as it provides more options and creative avenues for DJs, allowing for new tricks and techniques to be created and therefore make battles more interesting. It's up to the DJs to use DVS in that way rather than just using it as a vinyl substitute of course.
-I would 100% prefer to use DVS in a battle. I can use any song I want and have more creative options (see my last paragraph), which makes the competition more interesting - new possibilities = new tricks = fresher routines, provided the DJs are putting in the work to push themselves to push the limits of turntablism. Your percentage is completely off. The only difference between vinyl and DVS sets (other than loops and cues of course) is the way you perform transitions, taking the needle off one record and putting on another record - something that takes very little skill if you've been doing this a few months. Yes, finding the right time to transition is different but you still have to perform the transitions between songs, even if you don't have to physically remove the needle and change the record. I'm still changing tracks in this routine, for example, by using the mixer's track selector pot. Yes, some people abuse the shortcuts that DVS allows you to do (but you could do this on vinyl with dubplates too) - but that's what seperates a DJ taking shortcuts from someone who has put in the work. There's always been wack DJs and good DJs, regardless of the performance medium. I think DMC is at a great point now as a competition allowing DVS as it's opening itself up to new ideas and new forms of creativity but it's up to the DJs entering to push the skill level of the battle to the next level and not let it stagnate. This has always been the case, even in the vinyl era.
-Because you can edit your record files beforehand, SOME DJs take shortcuts (e.g. edited chases/sounds that sound more complicated than they actually are), but they're rarely the guys winning. The guys winning these events are pushing the limits and performing far and beyond what is possible with vinyl. Check out DVS sets by precision, idee, izoh etc. A lot of modern DMC DJs use music that older fans dislike, but more often then not, they're just playing music they like. I for one have seen enough poor Rock The Bells backspinning routines to last me a lifetime, I want to see and hear progression and I think there has been plenty.
-Something people also need to understand as fans, who don't necessarily battle themselves, in order to impress you, battle DJs need to not only reach the level of top battle DJs but also surpass them. This takes YEARS of dedication and if people complain about the skill level of current battlers, you have to remember that a lot of them weren't even scratching when people like Craze, Kentaro, Merge etc etc were winning world titles. I didn't start until 2004, for example, I had to work to get to the level I'm at now, and entered DMCs for a few years before winning the 2013 Online title.
Hope this answers your questions.
djjon1st This answers all my questions and more, quite comprehensively, so thank you :)
in 2008, I bought 2 Techtronic directdrive turntables an an awesome classic mixer, a numark DM2002x - I thought I could learn, get creative and have fun. But i'll admit for every day of my life, it's a metric fuck-tonne harder than anyone ever gives it credit for :) (ps, I consequently gave up :()
djjon1st Your set was dope and you have skills.The politics of vinyl will surround deejaying forever. Bottom line truth is until turntablism embraces other forms of music(which in certain cases has) It will be considered dead just like the genre of music that started it Hip Hop. Battling now is a joke the skill sets haven't changed.With the controlers avalible there is little use for vinyl except asethetics.If you love what you do then keep doing it.
djjon1st youre awesome dude!!! min 1:00 !!!!!!!!!!!
I feel my table is getting an unfair share of abuse in the comments. It has served me well for nearly 8 years and is currently feeling rather unloved :(
ChrisHallett83 wow did you stay up all night thinking of that or did it just suddenly come to you......fail
sadly i knew you'd say that when i was typing the first comment witch makes you simple and not worth my time, sorry kid
Don't lose yourself to jealousy Adam. Just learn to scratch and make your own videos. Poor fella.
Jealous of what ....and I know how to scratch y'all are idiots I said this guy was dope but clearly y'all don't understand how to read its Aite lil guy I've spent enough playing in the kiddie pool go back to your sandbox clown
Joshua Cash idiot I said he did are you ignorant or illiterate
2019 and I still watch in awe. So sick.
2021 still amazing this shit is timeless
I swear at some points it seems the video is in fast forward.
Thanks for all the support everyone! If you want to hear more or see me perform live check out my website for more info: www.jon1st.co.uk!
Such an amazeballs routine :D
i want to learn how to dj can u tell me were to start
KickinMcLoven midi decks on ebay can go as cheap as £40...
KickinMcLoven It all depends on your price range, what you want to do, Etc.
I suggest if you want the turntable feel, you could get a Numark NS7 for a decent price, due to the NS7II that came out. Just mixing you could get just about anything, search around, I love the NS7, pioneer DDj-SX (or SB), or find a nice pair or decks and a mixer (with or without Rane software) and practice.
Good stuff mate. Whats that mixer your using?
Fantastic skills and routine! Unlike a lot of turntablists you kept things in time and on beat. Hands down one of the best performed scratch routines I've ever seen.
Another example of people giving thumbs down and the only possible reason is jealousy. Each thumbs down is like 100 thumbs up if you think about it. First minute is like..... whoooaaa
Man, have listened to hundreds of DJs, sets, etc and your set is awesome... clean, innovative choices for music, breaks, etc...super slick, loved it...
I can't believe anyone would actually hate on this set man; seriously! Thank you Jon1st for taking time out to record and post it. As with some who have commented before me, I've been a deejay for a hot minute (20+ yrs actually, give or take) and I think this set is top shelf, no doubt about it! Your technique (scratch speed and phrasing), sample selection, beats (both scratched and dropped).... all INSANE!!! Thanks again for sharing with the rest of us.
April 2024 still loving this set. Listening to jon1st always makes me smile. Thanks Champ.
I started djing in 1996 I came up in the vinyl days. I dont get the negativity, and Im sick of the same excuses. Vinyl is great (always will be) but if your not willing to practice and learn to aporeciate the advantages of the new technology then maybe its time for a new hobby, cause DJing isn't your passion. You stopped progressing the minute you let this new and unknown territory intimidate you into standing still. I would have robbed a bank to have these toys 20 years ago, and to be able to remix tracks live on the fly. You want to keep lugging your 100 lbs of wax around? I respect that but Id rather lug around a thumb drive. Jon1st that was some serious ninja shit man. Someone showed me this a few years ago and Im so glad I stumbled on it again. Its Inspiring when you think you've seen it all and someone reminds you, you can still go way further. Thanks for the push kid. Keep killing it!!
Fucking best comment haha and everything you said hit the nail on the head, kudos to you good sir
Who in their right mind disliked this?
Haters, because they are jealous
SuperDelusionistTM your pfp

30 hates wish there were dj jon1st
He's dope, and he kind of looks like Mr Bean.
Pri yon Joni mr bean the magician in ignition
No, like sheldon
I don't comment on videos very often, but after watching the disappointing performance from DJ Fly to win the World Championship, I thought I would give credit where credit is due and say that this blew me away! Outstanding stuff Jon1st, definitely the future DMC World Champion
Congratulations Dj Jon1st
Jon WTF is this mate?!!!! A bad ass routine son .. great ffkn job mate! Vinyl in crates .. locked in your room - reminds me of when I was a young lad 30+ years ago .. practicing hours on end in hopes of perfecting my routine. But you mate .. have done a superb job! Well done!
FREEEAAAAKING HELL MAN YOU ARE QUICK AS FUCK !!!!!
Thank you for your set Jon1st ... Has a touch of the old skool flavour/techniques mixed with newer techniques ... Was getting so sick of the DMC winners over the years until I saw your set
This was awesome. Big ups buddy. Lots of hard work.
that just happened… sick nasty brother man
better than Fly's DMC routine for sure. Been watchin DMC since i was a nipper on VHS and this kid ihas the ability to be better than Craze and thats sayin something cause he's a fuckin legend
Hate to admit it because Craze is premium, but I agree with you. This kid is unique. I've never seen a set like that before.
Love watching this!

Years later, I return to this video in absolute awe. Inspired once again.

One of the best sets I've seen in a long time - tight skills.

Still by far my favourite DMC online routine. Jaw dropping skills with insane musicality. Inspiring!!
On point and creative. Lots of subtle details that make this set very polished. Props man.
Awesome stuff Man.
thank you and I will ocntinue to support you!!!
Top 10 all time routine for me...love how you made that beat in the middle of your set...amazing!
I still come back to this 🔥🔥🔥
Original, creative, and mad skills - loved it - congrats man.
wicked routine. i like to hear lots of change in flows and styles of music/beats in a DMC routine, and you nailed it
nice! kept me entertained throughout, transitions were good and cuts were tight. props :)
Man...I keep coming back to watch this routine and still be amazed
Mind-blowing as always. I'm round Leicester for another year so I'll try and make it to some of your shows :)
Awesome, man!!!
That was dope man
WOWWWW, so dope Jon!
Congrats on the win man, sick set, well done
Still one of my all time favs and inspiring after all these years!

You are Awesome!
Gossshh!! That was dope! The thing with the echo hold was absolutely genial!
Congrats, man!
lightning hand. Your work is brilliant man,keep on truckin'!
Ive seen this video so many times and im still just amazed. Id buy this as a song if I could lol
I think this is one of the greatest turntablism routine I've seen in the past two years.
I watched it about 10 times already , and I keep re-watching it.
So refreshing !!! It's a well deserved victory you have there.
Nice touches man.. one of the very few serato sets I've seen where you can distinguish whats pre production and whats live.. everyone is taking things to the extreme with technology and its nice to see some real talent for a change.
Congrats man. Sick!
I am very happy that you won the final, I saw you at the UK finals and surprised me a lot, but the things of live ... Congratulations and keep it up!
Nasty mix dawg! A little bit of everything in the routine. I can tell you more than a battle dj. Good shit!!!!!
