Portablism's meteoric rise is clear. And recognising this fact, DMC and Numark are puting on a Portablism battle at this year's world finals.
Trade shows are places to hang out with fellow DJs. And at BPM 2017, you'll be able to take part in the Portablist Lounge, with your portable turntable.
Behold the Numark PT01 Scratch, a reworked version of the original portable turntable but with an added scratch switch. Portablists rejoice? Maybe?
While the portablist world seems to run on a never ending stream of analogue 7" releases, it's just a matter of time before the digital age kicks in for portablists. And DJ Underkut has brought it even closer by modding the Denon DS1 Serato DJ interface inside the ubiquitous PT01 Scratch.
Numark finally made an deliberate rather than accidental product for the portablism market. Behold the PT01 Scratch. We scratched, we wrote, we liked.
