A Bossa Morning

Here is a pic of the laptop in DJ mode as i selected some tunes i would probably play on the gig midweek.

One of the superb tunes i played was this great version by the Brazilian samba man Sivuca  and his version of Bill Withers song Ain't No Sunshine.



Enjoy

Love your laptop in DJ mode!

That's an upbeat version of Ain't No Sunshine :)

Not a bad cover of Sunshine. :)

Actually it is not if you have used proper decks and mixer beforehand. It has knobs on the screen for samples and effects too like wah wah. Cool!

What program is that? It looks like it'd be fun to play with.

It is called Virtual DJ, the free home edition version of it. It also has an auto-mixer of the tracks in your playlist, esp. if you need a toilet break.

I like cover versions that try to do something different to the original :)
