Movie Reviews of Intellect: Techno House Progressive
Movie Review: Inspirational, informational and entertaining.
Summary: 5 Stars
Found this DVD in my collection last night and watched it again. It just gets better every time. The DVD is great for DJs and producers of Electronic Dance Music alike. For DJs, it has some great tutorials, for any level of DJ, from a complete n00b to an experienced club DJ. The tutorials are done by some of the most respected DJs in the world, you won't get a better lesson from anyone else. Not only that, but there is a section on promotion, which is arguably the second most important thing a DJ needs to know after 'how to DJ.'
I've been producing music for about 8 years now and, I've noticed this DVD gets more interesting every time I watch it, as my experience with music broadens and my understanding of it increases. [I got it back in 2003 when it just came out and have seen it many times since] If you are a DJ, you will find the mixing tutorials very helpful. As a producer, I found the documentary inspirational and enlightening, watching the DJ tutorials gave me some great ideas on how to produce tracks which DJs will want to spin. Either way, its worth every penny.
I paid about $25 - $30 for it back in 2003, so the price seems a bit high for it at the moment. But, you can rent it from Blockbuster via their website. If you do decide to buy it, and you're serious about DJing or producing, you won't be disappointed.
