“We chart the evolution of the CDJ, as the revolutionary piece of music tech turns 30.

Three decades on from its beginnings, we track the CDJ’s evolution from experimental tech to industry standard gear, and explore how it changed DJing in countless ways.

Speaking with some of its biggest advocates, including Roger Sanchez, DJ Paulette, DJ Shadow, Miss Monique, James Zabiela, Moxie and more, we find out why the CDJ has become such an essential tool for today’s electronic music artists.

We also sit down with Yoshinori Kataoka, AlphaTheta’s President and CEO, and Kou Atsumi, one of the former product planners for the company — responsible for the Pioneer DJ brand — to learn the inside story on the development of the CDJ since its inception 30 years ago.”
