My New Mix

Matt looping the incoming track gives you precise control over the energy when you drop the old track out.

Homegrove that’s why i found it boring. there’s no effort to it. anytime you start to lose a mix, just loop it.

Matt

These days, i dont have the time to get to know my tunes like I did when i was playing vinyl.

Looping comes in handy when you have your phrasing wrong, which in my case is more often than i would like.

Regarding Dixon, is the loop at the end of every track jusy a safety net of sorts?

Probably.

Also have to say I enjoyed this. I have no idea what you call this style, Alprazolam House or music I suspect Sasha might play, but I enjoyed it.

zackster That’s the ticket, Zack! According to Beatport, it’s mostly deep house, or <cringe> melodic techno

Is Rhouses now in the branding dept of Beatport?

Yeah, for a live show etc, looping can save the day, but for something you are gonna record and expect people to listen to more than once, I’d be learning those tracks and finding the best places to drop stuff in and out etc.

Amps That’s what I normally do and spend ages doing and then my mixing is shit and it doesn’t matter. With this mix, I bought them Friday night, practiced with the tracks and see if they fitted together on Saturday and then when I got the set together on Sunday and started to practice that, it just started going well and with the one fuck-up (School), I didn’t think it was worth the stress of a redo. I’m not that precious - I’d love it to be better, but mixing still needs improving anyway, so it’s all a bit of a moot point. It’s for fun really.

Along_the_Wire I honestly don’t bother doing any of that. My first mixes playing new tunes are usually better mixes than when I get to know the tunes. I find myself getting bored if I play a tune more than a few times. When they’re fresh it just flows better for me.

Just listened to it. Think you are beating yourself up a bit on the mixing to be honest, I genuinely couldn’t hear anything wrong?
Anyway - enjoyable mix, a good accompaniment to home working in the sunshine!

gcw cheers mate!

Kinell Grant nothing wrong with this. Not the same music I play but there’s nothing wrong with the mixing from what I could hear on my laptop. And you’re getting people listening to it too.I average about 3 people listening to mine! Haha
