    Record pickers

    In DJ mag it says the big DJs who get sent hundreds of records a week are having to employ people to sift out all the shit that gets sent to them. I can think of worse jobs.
    Says some weeks Tiesto gets sent 1000 records!

    Say you got about 200 in a week at an average of 8mins. That's 1600 mins = nearly 27 hours!
