I've thought about pitching at least one of my decks - especially when I'd
love to mix a Kraftwerk tune in with some Direct Beat tracks - I'd love to
kick Musik Non-Stop up to about +10 and jack it properly. What is the
chance of f*cking up the decks though?

mmm i dunno. i just usually think that tracks are done for some tempo
for some reason. and i like to keep the tracks as they were intended to
be. of course you need to always pitch up/down while playing but +16 is
way overkill. if playin house i try to keep in between -2 - +4, with
techno i can go up'n'down more but for example at +8 the bass goes
awful. kinda weak. and think about vocals of house-tracks at +16.
usually ruins the track totally.. kills the vibe totally because they
start sounding like how gabber-heads used vocals - pitched too up.
