BPM | PRO 2017: The Gemini Freestyle competition
If you're the kind of DJ that prefers to battle other DJs rather than make a crowd dance, then the Gemini Freestyle Comp at BPM | PRO 2017 is for you.

The fact that Hercules makes DJ software might be news to a lot of you. But DJuced 40 has just reached v3.6, and gets all round improvements.

Seems to be limited edition week at Pioneer DJ Towers, this time the DDJ-SX2-N being the shiny gold edition of the established boring old DDJ-SX2.

Benjamin Franklin said "in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes". And white editions of Pioneer DJ gear it seems.

From idle gossip to leaks to official release — the Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX2 is their updated and fully standalone box, complete with touch screen and more pads.

The new Pioneer DJ DDJ-XP1 is the SP1 update you've been waiting for. Except that it's for rekordbox and not Serato DJ, and comes with the new rekordbox 5.

Serato DJ moves on, and so does the hardware. The updated Pioneer DDJ-SR2 adds RGB pads, Pitch 'n Time, and can optionally work as a DVS mixer too. Nice.

I'm getting a feeling of déjà vu here… didn't we cover this? Oh wait — this is the new Pioneer DJM-S3 Serato DJ mixer, not the DJM-250MK2. Easy mistake.

The DJ world continues to change, and your favourite brand and products are disappearing every day. So what would you do if yours became extinct?

Gently easing you back into the working week is UK turntablist Again Hawk, who once again drops a routine for DJ City called "Like Water".

It's about time Pioneer DJ's headphone range got tidied. And the new HDJ-X range (X10, X7, and X5) brings something for DJs of all needs and wallet sizes.

Today's setup is the result of another young addition to the wider DJWORX family. Lucy Morse arrived 3 weeks early, and did this to Dan's setup. Kids eh?
