Gadgets and Apps for the Travelling DJ
As we gear up for the summer tour schedule, it's time to get our tech in order...we thought we'd share three of our must-have pieces of tech we travel with.
Hardware:
We're Serato ready at ALL TIMES. For those not in the know, Serato is hands-down the most revolutionary piece of DJ equipment from the last 15 years. The launch of Serato platform marked the end of carrying endless boxes of vinyl (never really did the CD thing) to clubs and venues PLUS those excess baggage weight charges at the airport.

Production:
Ableton Live is software for creating musical ideas, turning them into finished songs, and even taking them onto the stage.
With two views - the classic Arrangement View, where musical ideas are laid out along a timeline, and the unique Session View, where you can improvise and quickly experiment with musical ideas - Live is a fast, fun, intuitive way to make music. You can also make cheeky edits to tracks to personalise them to your own creative preferences. Grab yourself a free trial here
Gaming:
Joystick provides us with all the latest gaming news, and live Esports in one place. There's so much choice of where to read news & reviews, watch tournaments and follow gaming channels. Joystick is a great way to keep up to speed on this rapidly moving world...Snap up a free copy of this brilliant litle app here
