Otto Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Hello everybody. For some reason my SoundCloud shit the bed the other night, and the mix I previously posted was deleted. Anyway, I recorded this last night and figured I would put it up in place of the old mixes I made!Tracklist:Are You Ready (Hardwell Rework) - Joe GhostDisco Nap (ft. Oliver) - A-TrakVoodoo People - AlvaroFar Too Loud - BrainbokkaHey Ah Yeah! (The Kovacs Brothers Remix) - Will Sparks vs Showtek & BassjackersPlage (Alvaro Remix) - Crystal FightersDon't Go (Hookie Remix) - YazooRock Music - AlvaroStormchaser - BastoHello (Bassjackers Remix) - Martin Solveig & DragonetteAtom - Nari & MilaniKick Out The Epic Motherfucker (Otto Knows Remix) - Dada Life https://soundcloud.com/ottomcgee/mix-1Feedback is obviously greatly appreciated - I know I've made a couple of mistakes (especially with fading songs out a little too early), but if there's anything you notice that I could improve on by all means let me know!Also, is this a high enough standard to be playing in the early hours of some clubs? Do my transitions have to be smoother or would this do for a 9pm/10pm set?Kisses. Quote
GREMM1S Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Pretty good man!Liked hearing a fair bit of starfuckers in there ! Quote
drak0sp Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Dunno what to say dude, there aren't any obvious mistakes. Good job keep it up Quote
Otto Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Thank you both!I think I need to work on having a bit more of a structure, especially since it's a pretty short mix I guess. Quote
Otto Posted March 13, 2013 Author Posted March 13, 2013 Uploaded a new mix in place of the old one, because the old one got taken down. Also added a tracklist & a couple of questions in the original post! Quote
GREMM1S Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Technically i think fine dude, however musically certainly not suitable for the early hours of a club haha.If i were i would be focusing on warm up type music put together a cool bouncy/chilled set. Quote
Otto Posted March 13, 2013 Author Posted March 13, 2013 Right, obviously an early set has to be a little more relaxed. How relaxed are we talking though? Quote
Mitch Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Go out to the club(s) you want to play at and see what they play early. Use that as a guide but obviously put your own flavour on it Quote
GREMM1S Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Go out to the club(s) you want to play at and see what they play early. Use that as a guide but obviously put your own flavour on itI find there is an idea heaps of young guys get and that is to send my mixtape out to clubs.This would very rarely work, you really need to focus on one or two clubs you want to play at, get to know the other djs there and the promoters introduce yourself to them let them know you are keen.and then like Mitch said scope out the style, tempo and types of artists djs play in the early slots, then go make a suitable mix for an open slot there.

Otto Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 I think this Saturday I might do exactly that. Starting sets are at like what, 9ish usually?Thank you very much for the help by the way. Quote
Mitch Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 What time depends on the club. Check out their Facebook for event or something Quote
GREMM1S Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Yeah man most clubs start 9-10, and no worries at all, been there ad done that haha, best feeling when you get that first gig. Quote
