Using my Quneo for the first time in Traktor. Not ideal but still fun. I wish it was mapped more like a midi fighter. (Taken with GifBoom)

DJ Ean Golden really does teach me something new on a daily basis. It’s weird that I look up to this guy, respect all the work he does and that he has such a huge influence on me as a DJ/Controllerist and I doubt the guy even knows I’m alive… In fact I know he doesn’t know a thing about me.

But he’s still inspiring, still helpful and now thanks to his simple lessons I have yet another skill to add to my bag of tricks.  

Last night I rocked a surprise house party for the 30th birthdays of my friends Micah and James. My brother showed up at the peak of my set when the dancing really popped off and I really started to rock it. He took some photos of me using my gear from DJTechTools.com which I highly recommend for all up and coming DJs. The shirt I’m wearing is from SEIBEI.com and fits me as a person perfectly.  

Had an amazing time, want to thank everyone who danced and made it fun for me. Can’t wait to move to Portland and rock it with weekly DJ sets in the near future.

I uses Sony headphones to DJ with for 10 years. Loved this model for how they sound but every pair breaks in the same spot. #fucksony anyone know of a better brand for DJs? (Taken with instagram) View high resolution

Dancing While DJing… A Way to Get Fit?

I’ve been a DJ going on a decade and a half now and with my new gear, new set up and equipment I can’t help but spend a lot of time in front of my rig, just spitting out remix after remix and dancing my ass off while I do. Yeah I’m a fat man and I dance my ASS OFF while I DJ.

I become this giant nerdy, sweaty mess while I rock out beats that I’m sure my old man neighbor HATES. But I feel really good after. I’m pretty sure that I’m totally burning calories. I’m using my whole body, moving my feet constantly, dancing like an ass hole, but dancing none the less.

So if I do this every day, for like 4 hours a day is it a way to get fit and work on my career? We’ll see!  

really made me laugh a lot.

Going to modify this to sit snuggly on my head while I DJ. Going to recreate it with better materials, built in monitors and lighting as while. I just love the look of the creeper.

Request for ladies to perform DJ samples.

Hey what’s up friends. While I don’t talk about it much here on KentBalls.com I have been a DJ for the past 10 years. Doing house parties, a few small club gigs and most of all doing it for my own enjoyment, but now I want to break out. I am looking to start DJing up and down the west coast over the next year with my wacky and interesting blend of pop culture samples and movie themes with well known top 40 and EDM hits. 

But I need one thing from you, specifically ladies… I’m asking you to send me clips of you saying “DJ Kent Balls” in all different types of voices… sexy, goofy, funny, whatever.

Send any clips you have in MP3 format to kent@the72pins.com

Try to keep the quality as good as you can. To do this record in a small environment with very little echo and no ambient noise. This means turning off fans and closing windows.

I hope to get samples from you soon.

Thank you so much,

Kent Balls
