Lato Ji It's good to hear about your interest. I'm not an expert with DJing but I do have few info. I have no clue about traditional style DJ with turntable and vinyle. I have seen and touched once. Some one here might want to shade more light on this. This is if you want to go this route. But I do know that with new technologys, these days, you can achieve the same thing and more using a computer(usually a laptop), softwares and a basic midi controller. Well they might say it's not a real DJ, but if you can get the thing done, who cares. Also you might want to to look into the new turtables on the market. I think they're very advanced where you can hook them up with computer and DJ with CD and mp3. For the start, I can think of few names with turntable: Numark, Hercules, Pioneer, Stanton (???) Software:Traktor DJ, Virtual DJ, eJay You might wan to google and find those names, I might be wrong with the names. Find a good site that has tips, tutorials, get a book about DJ and go for local DJ show whenever you can. Get a good studio monitor(U definetly want that Bass more powerfual for DJ), headphone for cueing. I think this should be a start.
