Prog, min, tech, electro, breaks <-- stuff in it.

Yeah... it's my second mix out of traktor. I'm screwing around with fx and learning the hard way that my remote sl works as a controller. My downfall is using the same buttons to control 2 decks :P Oh well.

Feel free to rip it apart.

Known Issues:

1) Loop happy during one breakdown. I was screwing around.
2) Yeah... I stopped the wrong deck and had to edit it a bit... and did so poorly.
3) Other various FX filtering that wasn't needed.

Good track selection, but I didn't like the energy. Immature use of effects. I will give you points for using Balzan's track  :laugh:

Dude, that's not a mistake, that's a technique. A "hey, stop looking at that hot girl, look at the DJ!" trick.

Works every time...

LOL

Dave this mix is really awesome. I am McLovin it. The effects are OK. I think I was so lost in the tracks that I forgot to pay attention to when you were messing with them. I caught a few early in the set, but for the most part I didn't notice.  :-X

Yeah... I know. It was. Stupid user error. I hit the wrong button and changed decks right b4 I hit play.

effects usage was ok, just was alot of it. and it didnt seem to have a point, like using it to help build tension in a build up or that sort of thing.

The point was to get use to them. Originally, I wasn't going to show this off, but changed my mind. Shame Traktor isn't like ableton. I'd just delete them after the fact otherwise ;)

I enjoyed it. The tracks were fun, I was bouncing. The negative things you're already aware of.

Good track selection, but I didn't like the energy.

Energy worked for me. The big vocal track around 23:00 was a bit distracting at first, but then I started digging it.
