CARHARTT X UDG
Since the digital revolution came up, for a long time the DJ world was divided into strictly analogue and strictly digital advocates. However, today more and more DJs are making use of the advantages of both formats not just because digital media are less heavy than their analogue counter parts, but also because they are very convenient to work with. Yet, with the wonderful new diversity of setup options, one tiny problem arises: how to best stow away and carry around the holy trinity of music storage formats the record, the disc, and the notebook computer? After all, who wants to haul three different bags to a club or, even worse, have to check in three different bags at the airport?
Carhartt and UDG have now come up with a great all in one solution that will help you avoid all this hassle. It is a compact DJ bag that can hold your laptop, your vinyl collection, and your CDs, all at the same time. Sounds great on paper, but how does it play out in real life?
In order to find that out, we asked a select circle of DJs to test the Carhartt X UDG bag for us. They used it in their daily businesses, jam-packed it with their gear, gadgets, and record collections, hauled it around on flights, from continent to continent, from club to club, and exposed it to all sides of a DJ’s life. From the 27th of September onwards you can read the experiences of Cosmin TRG, Benji B, and Modeselektor each week at www.carhartt-wip.com/music.
