Original is far superior.

I'm sick of these "change the bassline" edits that keep cropping up.

If you are going to remix something, do it properly! Curse you Recoverworld!!! :mad:

I have to say i'm a massive Bryan Kearney fan, so i pretty much like it for the reason you don't... have you heard his remix of Barry Connell - Frizzbomb? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dfxEpHu3bko

Ferry Corsten's new album "Twice in a Blue Moon" is pretty good but it's going to take a few listens before I fall in love with it.

Despite Ferry's mixed productions the past few years i was really looking forward to this, but it's rubbish :(

Nice one with the mixing last weekend by the way! You need to sort out a cable to the line in port and get some streaming going on
 
Folks i'm in desperate need of some new radio shows/livesets/mixes to listen to. At my new job we're allowed to listen to music through headphones so i'm finding myself listening to 5+hours of mixes each day and i'm very rapidly running out of new ones!!

Now posting links to mixes isn't allowed but if you can name the radio show or the name of a DJ that regularly records mixes i'm sure i can find them my self.

I'd really like some techno recommendations as well as quite full on trance. Nothing too anjuna in style i.e. not to fluffy

Thanks :)

I'm really getting quite tired of it now, i've always preferred the boshier end of the trance spectrum but nowadays the fluffier stuff almost seems to annoy me. It's just so samey... kick drum, breakdown, cheesy vocals, breakdown, more breakdown. The new above & beyond track is a good example, it's exactly the same as every other vocal track they have released for the past 5 years.

It's just a phase i'm sure and i don't dislike it as such but for now it's all about the techno and hardish trance :D


Infamous - Cheers, grabbed a couple of those to listen to tomorrow but i think you should take the link down now. The mods are pretty strict on links like that and i'd hate for this thread to be deleted

Yep :D

Now don't get me wrong i'm terrible BUT even in the 3 or 4 hours play time i've had with them i've improved shed loads. Simply getting used to the speed of the jog wheel and sensitivity of the pitch slider is helping. One thing i've noticed above anything is that concentration helps A LOT, that might sound a bit obvious but well i'm not very good at concentrating :p

Was hoping to have a mix this evening but the family have god bloody x-factor on :rolleyes:

John O Callaghan feat. Jaren - Surreal
Has anyone heard this yet?, it was on ASOT 382. I must admit it's rather intoxicating!

I heard it today and it did very little for me. I much prefer his more energetic stuff like his remixes of Mojado - Kaktus and Underworld - Cowgirl, they are superb

Keep practising mate, it'll all click into place some day soon. When I started I was terrible, but one day it just clicked ... so stick with it and have fun!

I recorded an hour long mix the other night and every mix was spot on*, i was well chuffed :D


* well, give the beginner a little allowance here and there :p
 
Well..

- Adjust the pitch to roughly the right percentage (plus or minus 0.7% for every 1 bpm)
- Nudge the tracks in time
- If the track goes out of sync and you have to rotate the platter left (slower) to get it back in time then decrease the pitch a little
- If the track goes out of sync and you have to rotate the platter right (faster) to get it back in time then increase the pitch a little
- Rinse and repeat!
