some wedding mixes

[overit]

I remember having convos on here before about why I bother mixing at weddings.

So this year I have recorded a few of the "set pieces" I often use at functions.

I can play as much or as little of each mix as i like. I dont play the recordings unless I want a fag/shit. I normally run each mix as it comes so I can remain flexible to the audiences needs.

Anyway, in my experience I get better results from the crowd by mixing (even if a bit wobbly) or at least cutting on beat, than I do if I just play the tracks with a fade in fade out.

So have a listen if you like. Apologies these are only on mixcloud, all songs too well known for soundcloud to let pass by uncensored.

*what works in the uk mate. Even in these old genres there must be some tracks that are popular here which may not be so great down there.

but yer, have a listen, let me know what you think

Nice one. I just got asked to do 2 wedding, these will come in handy, ive done a few mates weddings before for free, any ideas what i should charge a mates mate? i'm thinking 50 an hour.....

^ no idea mate, I work in a dif country, I never do mates' functions, plus I'm using a dif currency and booked via a high rent agency who charge more than most for a tailor made service.

it's a big question with a lot to consider and def deserves it's own thread.

Post in the mobile DJ boards and you should get Sol, Vlad and hopefuly Source offering some input. Funky Steve also springs to mind as someone who knows the mobile game.

Apologies to any other front line grunts who I've forgotten
