Dear Santa (Letter from a DJ)

Dear Santa,

While I am a grown man, toys are still very important to me. I am particularly fond of audio-visual gear. While it's true that I already own some of these items, it's always a pleasure to play with the latest and greatest toys.

Forget about the Ugz boots this year, and please bring me the following:

* Pioneer CDJ-900s (2),
* Pioneer Mixer model DJM-800 (1);
* Technics 1200 turntables, the industry standard! (2); (sadly Panasonic no longer produces these... hope that you can pull some strings!);
* Martin MAC 550 Moving Heads (with matching cases!);
* An Apple i-Pad (the 64 GB version would be splendid!). I will use this device to run my entire business conglomerate on-the-go;
* Apple MacBook Pro (17" monitor);
* 15" Yorkville Powered Speakers, Model EF500PB (2); if these are two heavy for your sack, then I'll take two 15" Electro-Voice SXA250 Powered Speakers instead.

For stocking stuffers, consider:

* Blizzard Lighting's LED lighting Pucks so that I can uplight everything! (next year I will even uplight your cookie and glass of milk!);
* Gift certificate for Dubspot Music Academy in Manhattan (www.dubspot.com) to receive training in production and scratching!
* $250 gift certificate from Promo Only (www.promoonly.com) for additional music videos and subscriptions;
* $100 gift certificate from Amazon.com - to download additional music, and books related to business. I might use this towards Keith Richards' autobiography "Life";
* $100 gift certificate from Crooklyn Clan.net - to download the hottest mash-ups and video remixes;
* All-expenses paid trip to the WMC (Winter Music Conference) being held March 8th-12th in Miami.

Thanks Santa!

Festively,
