Born in MONTREAL. DJ since 1974. He was the 'ORIGINAL' back then. It was FUNK and DISCO... In the mid 70's, A DJ had to play the entire night by himself. 6 to 10 hours set, required some outstanding programming skills ! Today, it's alot easier when you only have to bring a record bag to play for an hour or two ! BENNY BERGERON decided to buy his first pair of belt drive turntables (KENWOOD KD-2055) when he was 12, because he was really annoyed when it was time to celebrate Christmas or any event. Everybody had to wait almost 5 minutes between records. The DJ was always, either too drunk or way to slow to pick the next one !.............. '' WHEN I STARTED, THERE WAS NO PITCH CONTROL... I HAD TO USE MY FINGER TO SPIN THE RECORD FASTER OR HOLD THE WHEEL, TO SLOW IT DOWN. NO MIXER YET... I WAS USING ' Y ' RCA ADAPTERS TO HOOK UP THE TURNTABLES TO MY AMP, SO WHEN THE FIRST RECORD WAS ALMOST OVER, I WOULD DROP THE NEEDLE ON THE SECOND ONE AND MIX IT.........................
