DJ AM Youtube vids
Just wanted to give a big shout out to whoever unearthed all these never before seen vids of AM spinning. The Live Performances playlist has a bunch of vids I've never seen before or were in poor quality before. Literally brought tears to my eyes tonight. Years of searching for vids and these just became unearthed somehow. They've never shown up on Youtube searches before. Love bouncing to his vids. There will never be anyone greater. Much respect and thank you! Looking forward to the re-release of the doc. ah yeah!

Mobile DJ Gigs
@djkevinscott Hi Kevin,
Did Adam do mobile DJ gigs?
If yes, I am interested to know if he brought his own equipment around with him.
What was part of his mobile DJ setup (Speakers, Lights, etc.) when he played celebrity parties?
Also, I know it was said he was part owner of Banana Split and you could only fit a few people in there. What was the setup like in there?
Thank you.

Hey Wildstyle,
The system inside LAX Hollywood was excellent and was installed by the legendary John Lyons - http://www.avalonsound.com - John had put the system in Body English in Las Vegas where Adam was the resident and Adam wanted him to do it for LAX after that experience. He has installed some of best sound systems in the world including XS in Las Vegas, Avalon in LA, Light in Las Vegas and many others. I will try to dig up some photos of the system when I have some time and post them as a follow up.
DJ AM Recorded Sessions
@djkevinscott Hi Kevin, it's great you are keeping the site alive. How did DJ AM go about in recording his mixes? What was he using to record if he was at the club? or were the sessions recorded at his house? Thank you.

Hey Wildstyle,
Thanks for the post & question! AM used the Serato internal recording function to record pretty much all of his live mixes from 2007 on. So basically straight from his laptop onto his laptop hard drive using Serato's built in record function.
Some of the earlier ones were recorded by various other means including the 2005 demo that he & I worked on. We recorded that one straight into a mixing board from his mixer and sequenced it using Sony's Sound Forge & Vegas (popular programs at that time).
The Elton mixes (with the exception of #4 which was recorded live at The Ambassador in SF) were recorded using Serato record feature at his house.
Hope this helps. Feel free to post any other questions in the forum!

I can’t remember if I saw this on the Documentary or YouTube.. but there used to be a video of AM practicing at a house.. I believe he was putting a set together or just messing around... it’s so good but I believe it’s been removed from YT. Anyone else know what I’m talking about?
