Not a lot happening in this forum! Is Canberra that bad for EDM?

They're just bricks from around the house

Dubstep is her favourite band.... fuuaaarrr lol

Hey mate nice choons I don't quite know what you mean about "the most common way" or the "best" way; every track is different and will have different requirements depending on the other track you are mixing in and what feel you want for your mix. But you seem to be getting the phrases to match well.. I think it's just a matter of what kind of energy you want... If you go through the buildup, breakdown, outro for every track it can get a bit tiresome for listeners though, imo. Hope this helps, Happy mixing

Some sweet ass setups there people! This is what I have so far.. it's not much.. That wooden shelf thing is removable, as you can see. I built it a couple days ago so that I could use my computer normally.

since when do DJ's need to line up at the bar? When they're not DJing

If you can find some way to get extrinsic motivation it will help a lot (rather than trying to motivate yourself). For example, you could make a commitment to your friend that you will give them $5 if you don't make a mix by x date. Use the fear of loss to your advantage.

Do it this way: one of you goes and lines up at the bar while the other drops as many tunes as it takes for him to get back. Swap and repeat.

Thanks for the eye opening post russell. It's interesting to know that all he needs are just these few things

Oh?

Nice looking site. Nice colours.

Yo Boss your tracks are cool but I would avoid mixing two melodies over the top of each other, for example at 4:27. It's too easy for them to clash if not done to perfection. Happy mixing

Great post, thanks Mitch. This will definitely save some time searching.

Haha thanks for the warm welcome and all the franger hats

Hiya Denis!

Hi, nice to meet you all, I'm Adrian. Just introducing myself here. Hoping to progress my mixing and exchange knowledge/ideas. I use to own CDJ1000's but have been without for a couple years. I didn't give up making mixes though, just used Live instead for while. But now I have on order the DDJ SX so I'll be back into the groove soon and hopefully get some mixes up for you all to listen to. Music wise I went down the trance/hard trance path for a while but now I play more techno/progressive than anything. That said I love some good DnB but haven't mixed it as yet. Cheers
