For todays artist travel setup we get to take a look inside the bag of DJ and producer, Robert Dietz. Robert Dietz cut his clubbing teeth on the Frankfurt scene dominated by the likes of Sven Vath, Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano, but the flourishing artist leaps all musical boundaries.
Robert has been found mixing on the Allen & Heath Xone:92, turntables with Traktor Scratch Pro 2, and a Kontrol X1, however he recently switched to CDJs (Pioneer CDJ 2000 Nexus) and USB keys with rekordbox. See what’s in his bag after the jump.
