Spin Headphones Let You Remix Your Music On-the-Go

— December 23, 2011 — Tech
There may very well be a new generation of DJs set to takeover the world of music if Spin headphones can become a reality. Spin was designed by Victor Declety to be a combination DJ kit/headphones.

The Spin headphones resemble the uber-popular Beats headphones but feature added functionality. Each of the earphones allows you to manipulate your music. One earphone features a four-way directional controller that lets you select your song samples. The other earphone features a scratch pad that lets you cut and scratch up your music on-the-go. With the rise of digital DJ gear, it seems that everyone and their mother is becoming a music producer. The Spin headphones could easily capitalize off of this trend. I'm also sure that they would get the Dr. Dre stamp of approval.
Trend Themes
1. Digital Djing - The rise of digital DJ gear opens up opportunities for innovative headphones that offer added functionality in manipulating music on-the-go.
2. Music Production - As more people become music producers, headphones with features like sample selection and scratch pads can cater to their creative needs.
3. Personalized Listening Experience - Headphones with built-in controllers and scratch pads enable users to personalize and remix their music, providing a unique listening experience.
Industry Implications
1. Audio Equipment - Innovative headphones like Spin can disrupt the audio equipment industry by offering DJs and music producers new ways to manipulate and create music.
2. Consumer Electronics - Headphone manufacturers can leverage the trend of digital DJing and music production to develop new products that cater to the needs of aspiring DJs and music enthusiasts.
3. Music Technology - Companies in the music technology industry can explore opportunities to integrate advanced features into headphones, catering to the growing demand for personalized music experiences.
