They were showing it off at NAMM a few months back, but it's now official that NI's new Traktor Scratch DJ software will come with online dance music retailer Beatport fully intergrated into the program. That means if you're playing out somewhere with a wi-fi connection and you suddenly realize you're lacking a track, it can be downloaded from Beatport directly into the Traktor software.
Interestingly, Traktor Scratch also marks NI's first independent foray into digital/analog DJing without previous partner, Stanton's Final Scratch. To sweeten the deal, NI is offering a “crossgrade” discount which will allow owners of Final Scratch, Serrato SCratch or Traktor 2 or 3 to purchase Traktor Scratch at a significant discount until the end of May.
Canadian cowboy and generally weird rhyme slanger, Buck 65 is about to have a big 2007. In addition to providing all the music to Scratch director Doug Pray's Big Rig (which rules on all levels and will be premiering at SXSW) and the French film l'Histoire de Richard O, Buck is readying his first full-length in some time. Here he speaks (at great length) about the source of inspiration for the new album, one that he promises will be surprisingly hip-hop to some people. It's entirely produced by Scratch Bastid, and assuming everything goes according to plan, it'll hit record stores this summer.
