Imagine having a couple of grand to spend on professional DJ mixing gear - wouldn`t that be sweet?

DJ Decks & FX does exactly that for you, providing a sampler, beat machine, professional mixer, FX units and some stylish turntables. All that is still required is some kicking beats.

Although it`s not confirmed yet which tracks will be featured in the final release of Decks & FX, it is safe to say that somewhere in those estimated 50 tracks you`ll be able to find the one that tickles your fancy.

Sony`s latest product seems to me to be about as close as you can get to the 'real thing` without having to own a fully equipped studio.

Add a little spice to a house party by remixing some of your favourite tracks. Cut vocal and beat samples out of one track and play it as a loop in another. You can even create your own beats with a cleverly designed beat box, provided you don`t blow out your windows with the bass.

With DJ Decks & FX, it`s even possible to cue up a track on the virtual turntables by using the Socom USB headset. So when the final mix starts pounding, you can play it through the main speaker setup, yet again bringing you one step closer to the real thing.

DJ Decks & FX is expected to hit the scene around Christmas time, and is guaranteed to blow you away with excitement.

As the band said: P.A.R.T.Y. It`s your birthright!
