Casual Couch mixers rejoice!!!
Been tracking this for a while. Had a quick look today and was pleased to find out that the iPad version of this great app is 50% off.
As a former DJ I can tell you that Djay2 at this price is a steal ESPECIALLY if you are a Spotify user.
The Spotify integration means you have access to MILLIONS of songs right in the APP and they are ALL Beats Per Minute scanned.
For me this is an absolute GODSEND.
For example, I've been listening to one of Spotify's Grime playlists and saving the songs that I like.
When you fire up Djay 2, your Spotify listening history is already there as well as any playlists you've saved.
So tonight, within seconds of purchasing the app, I was mixing two of my favourite new tracks that I discovered last week.
Can't wait to finally analy-retentively create playlists organised by BPM for future mixing when I get bored. (It's a DJ thing…I hate having playlists that jump around BPM wise. I love having lists that start with the slowest song and end with the fastest or vice versa)
Official spiel is as follows:
*** 50% OFF FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY! ***
NOTE: All-new djay PRO for iPad is now available on the App Store. Visit www.algoriddim.com for more info!
