FALL 1997 • NUMBER TWENTYSEVEN

“Today's youth want to emulate the DJ. The DJ is the role model, the culture hero, the icon of cool for this generation. And today's DJ — whether spinning Dance music, Hip Hop or even Karaoke — channels excitement, and, in the best-case scenario, an indescribable something extra. This special issue of K&DJ USA attempts to explore that something extra. We did our best to create a document which represents DJ culture on all fronts, while providing a wealth of information that is designed to help you do your job. The fact of the matter is that DJ culture, of which all who read this magazine are a part, is growing exponentially: keeping up with these changes is like mastering quantum physics. Longtime readers, however, are probably not surprised by the expanded coverage. You are already used to this magazine taking risks, experimenting, linking, growing and changing from issue to issue. And if you think that edition #27 represents a quantum leap, hold on to your extension cords: we have some surprises planned for the very next issue that may blow a few fuses.”

–Dale Lafayette & Eric K. Arnold
