IMPORTANT: IDA UK Final changes
Bad news I’m afraid. Due to a huge last minute problem with the venue, the planned IDA UK Final/Roc Raida benefit has been cancelled. I say cancelled as the Roc Raida event will absolutely happen at some point into the new year, but the IDA UK Final must happen now – and will be doing so as an online event only.

NUMARK AND BERKLEE COLLEGE OF MUSIC TEAM UP IN HOLLAND
Berklee broke new ground in music education once again by becoming the first music college in the world to incorporate the study of turntablism into its curriculum.
This spring semester, Turntable Technique will teach students the art of playing the turntable, an art form that helped define hip-hop music and has been adopted in virtually all popular music genres.
Berklee’s decision to adopt the turntable as a musical entity worthy of academic study continues the institution’s historical tradition of defying the music conservatory establishment by adopting new and often controversial music forms. In the 1940s, Berklee became the first music college to offer jazz in its curriculum, and later in the 1960s was the first college to adopt the electric guitar as a principal instrument.
Berklee Faculty member Stephen Webber has been at the forefront of turntablism education and continued this trend by assembling the Scratch Ambassadors Finland Tour.
Numark helped the Berklee classroom for this prototype class to be equipped with professional state-of-the-art instruments and gear by contributing their TTX hybrid analog/digital turntables, cartridges, analog and digital DJ mixers, and innovative CD turntables. In October 2009, Webber brought turntablism to eager audiences in Finland with Numark gear in hand.
Here are some images directly from the event:
