Best laptops for DJs

While there is no doubting vinyl has had a bit of a renaissance when it comes to DJs looking for that authentic sound and indeed experience, the rise of the good quality laptops has gone a long way into making the entry-level to the profession much easier.

Back in the day when my friends and I would be lugging a couple of Technics 1210s, mixers, speakers and the like – not to mention a couple of heavy record boxes full of rare tunes – to some filthy dive in the middle of nowhere, well, even if you are into vinyl now, those days are behind us.

These days you can fit pretty much an entire genre’s library onto a decent size USB hard drive, and if you lose it, break it, or get robbed, just copy it onto a new one from your backup (you do have a backup don’t you?)
