My FIRST psy-mix!


Guest

Ok so I'm a NEWBIE at DJing...this is my first mix...infact this is my first attempt at putting a bunch of songs together. I decided to stop messing around and actually try to make a mix. This is in no way finished or perfected, but I made a rough copy and would REALLY REALLY like if someone could tell me how I did. I would appreciate it so much. It's only 8 tracks, the title is stupidly called "Psychedelic 8 Ball"....don't ask, I really don't know. The intro is kinda lame but oh well. The rest sounds pretty good to me, the only transition I really need to clean up when I make the final copy is between tracks 3 and 4 because I sorta messed up the volume levels of the beat. Here is the track list:

 

1. Transwave - "Prologue"

2. Talamasca - "Sagittarius"

3. Psydrop - "Fear and Loathing"

4. Penta - "Disgusting Creatures"

5. Logic Bomb - "Neighbor of the Beast"

6. Jirah - "Jisen"

7. Penta - "Lost in Space"

8. Fly Agaric - "I See Myself"

 

The total time is 48:51, a short mix, but remember it's my first.

 

I don't have a web address to post the file on so if anyone has any suggestions on how I can post it would be appreciate it. Please tell me if you'd like to listen, I promise it won't hurt your ears :) I hope...

well... i'll tell you what i think from the tracklist. i think you could have sticked to a certain style and chosen some tracks that are more/less in the same style. this is a bit too varied and incosistent. example: going from Psydrop which is "melodic-pretty-happy-morning-trance" to the night-time darkness that is Penta and then to logic bomb which is in it's own way something completely different.

 

variation IS good, but to a certain extent...

 

just my opinion :)

Yeah that's what I thought but when you actually listen to it, it sounds very nice and not like your switching styles. You'd be surprised.

After listening to my mix over and over again it sounds better and better, the only thing that's annoying me is my intro...I dunno...it could be better, I tried a few options and the intro song now might be GMS "At the End of a Rainbow" instead of Transwave "Prologue."

i must agree

u cant combain such different style when mixin for others.

when u sit at home u can do what ever u want but when u are on the set at night how can u put "transwave" or in the morning "penta creatures"????? sorry mate...too diffrent.

dude i agree with everybody else about the variety in your mix... but since it was your first it's all good... but like everybody said try to keep it under the same style... for instance if u wanna play gms psydrop talamasca and whatever try to stick with artists that play sort of the same style if u know what i mean... it's all good if they sound pretty cool together but the main emotions of the music are totally different... the talamasca and psydrop songs are awesome try mix them with some eskimo/silicon sound/cybercartel/sestosento/cosma/ptx/melicia something like this i guess... this would be my opinion...

if u wanna search for my nick in soulseek... i could dl it directly from u and for sure i'd like to hear ur mix...

peace
