Classic DJ Gear: Vestax PMC-06 Pro
In December, DJcityTV launched a new series called Classic DJ Gear that’s hosted by Houston’s Mister Remix. The first episode looked at one of the most popular and influential mixers of all time: the Vestax PMC-07 Pro.
For February, Remix returns to examine another Vestax mixer: the PMC-06 Pro. Released in the mid-to-late ’90s, the PMC-06 Pro was popular with turntablists due to its slim design. Its thin profile was especially appealing to beat jugglers, as it reduced the space between the turntables. It was also appealing to turntablist groups who were tight on desk space.
Remix also looks at the even thinner PMC-06 T, which he says was the most “bizarre” mixer he’s ever seen.
Watch above and stay tuned for more videos.

Spotify Now Shows Producer and Songwriter Credits
Following last week’s changes that benefit remixers, Spotify announced on Friday a new feature that gives producers and songwriters the recognition they deserve.
From now on, users will be able to view the producer and songwriter credits of tracks on the the Spotify’s desktop app. The performers are also listed.
To view the information, right-click on a track and select “Show Credits” from the menu.
The credits are provided by record labels, and in some cases, artists. As such, Spotify’s announcement includes the following disclaimer:
“We realize some of the label-provided credits are incomplete or may contain inaccuracies, but this is just the first step in displaying songwriter credits on Spotify. The feature will continually evolve to become more efficient, provide better functionality, and incorporate more information from industry partners over time.”
Tiffany Kumar, global head of songwriter relation at Spotify, said:
“Songwriters are an integral force behind the music we love. With the newly launched credits feature, we aim to increase songwriter and producer visibility and, in turn, foster discovery among new collaborators, industry partners, and fans.”
“The more we share information, the more opportunities we can help create for songwriters. This is just the beginning of making songwriter and producer credits more easily available to Spotify listeners, and we look forward to continually improving that information, in close collaboration with our music industry partners.”
Producer Frank Dukes (Drake, Kanye West, and more) added, “It’s amazing to see Spotify give the unsung heroes of music some recognition on their platform. Definitely a step in the right direction.”
The feature also benefits fans and journalists who have, up until now, had to search for credits outside of Spotify.
DJ Brace Scratches Over His Remix of Kutiman’s ‘She’s a Revolution’ With Fretless Fader
During a recent visit to Los Angeles, DJ Brace stopped by DJcity’s studio to film a new episode of his Fretless Fridays series. The three-time DMC Online champ scratched over his remix of Kutiman’s “She’s a Revolution” featuring Adam Scheflan and Karolina using the Fretless Fader.
Developed by John Beez, the Fretless Fader is a crossfader that’s mounted on a rail, enabling DJs to control the pitch with up and down movement.
