That's pretty badass. I have a hard time telling how he does that though. Seems like a pretty advanced system.

Not for the first time in my days as a Prince fan, I'm asking, "I wonder if there's a soundboard version of this." lol

Nice mix. Made me a bit emotional, seeing how into it he was, and just hearing the music in that context - i.e. as the soundtrack to good times, when you have your friends around you, you're having a little drink, and listening to some tunes that amplify the feeling in the room. "Life is just a party...." music

.
From watching I'm guessing that It loads MP3s onto each turntable and that controls the MP3 like it's an actual record. So while ones playing he'll load the next track onto the turntable not in use at the time.

Awesomeness of the highest degree.

If you like that, check out mine...

It doesn't have all of that annoying "Premier, Premier" sample all through it, and has a better song selection (if I don't say so myself)

Thanks a lot for re-posting this, I had meant to check it out at the time but never got round to it. It's really touching to see Primo holding back tears and playing air guitar, a really lovely tribute. Are there any other good Prince mixes that people would recommend?

That's what I thought but I couldn't be exact because I did not know that existed. Wow. There is certainly an art to it that I think most people don't appreciate.
