DJ on the go

Hercules new DJ MP3 means you can get deep down and dirty on the decks wirelessly.

With summer parties coming thick and fast, doubtless the urge to scorch meat and showcase your 80s megamixes is growing fast. But put aside your barbecue skills, because Hercules has just dropped the ultimate bit of kit for you to mix it up garden style.

The Mobile DJ MP3 means no more holing yourself up in your 'booth' (or the dining table turned on its side), but getting in amongst the party, thanks to the wireless tech beneath the knobs. So you can stream MP3s and WAV files straight from your PC and get down to the serious business of mixing without having to get everything hooked up first.

It works just like any mixing desk, allowing you to fade tunes in and out as you please and even scratch if it takes your fancy, using the dual LCD screens to keep you in the loop. And if it all becomes too much, the automix feature will just drop the next track in the playlist. No biggie!

It's a bargain at £59 and should happily infuriate guests all summer long while you insist on 'mashing up' your favourite rap bangers.
