Sure.. Back in 2001 I had a residency at a small nightclub. It was one of those places that attracted all sorts of weird people. I had been working there for almost a year playing 1-2 nights per week minimum, so it was all routine at this point. It was a night just like any other. Obnoxious drunk people was nothing new, and I'd learned to deal with them... Sort of. At around 2 hours before closing time, a friend of mine came up to the booth. She was pretty wasted, and wanted me to take her purse for her. I doubled as a warderobe for my friends at this place so that wasnt out of the ordinary; except she didnt give it to me, she slammed it down over the edge of the booth and it offcourse landed right on the cd deck, PAUSE! SILENT CLUB! Not to mention knocking my beer over. I got pissed and tossed the purse back at her and yelled to her that her warderobe priveliges had been revoked for the evening, after I managed to get a new song going. I didnt think anything of it. Drunk friend being dumb, no big deal. Half an hour later, a well known local gangster comes up to the booth and stares at me. The "yes im here to intimidate you" stare. Now this guy had quite a rep. He had pulled a gun on some guy at this other club in town just 3 months ago, but never pulled any poo poo at our place. I was intimidated. "Hit me." He said, still staring. I had no idea what the gently caress "I SAID HIT ME" and he smashed his fist into the mixer and hosed around with the controls. He hit the master and the PA got cranked to max. The noise was amazing, and I quickly moved forward to turn it down before something blew. Oh snap, he grabbed me, and was about to mash my face in, but I got away, save for 3cm, he grazed my jaw. I stood back and was pretty loving petrified at this point. "SO YOU LIKE HITTING GIRLS HUH, HIT ME INSTEAD!" Great. The bitch had went to him crying that I had hit her for loving around in my booth, and now he'd found this evenings entertainment. The guards were circulating so I knew if the music stopped for an extended period they would get over there and see what was up, so while staying out of his reach, I managed to kick the amps powerbutton with my foot and killing the soundsystem. Thankfully another friend had seen all of this from the dancefloor, and got the guards over, and they got him out. "I'M WAITING OUTSIDE FOR YOU" was the last thing I heard. The guy I shared the residency came into the booth to see what the gently caress, and I just told him to take over, while I sat down and smoked, shaking like a leaf. Great night.

actionjackson posted:Don't know where to put this so I'll just ask here. This is for any techno heads, I'm looking for a track ID that I heard on DI's techno station, the lyrics were as such: Its not recent. John Creamer & Stephane K - Forget the world. Theres 1001 remixes of it. I THINK i dug the G-pal mix back in the day. edit: actually it got released as an acapella too, so it could be anything. but thats the name of the vocal atleast. edit2: why do I not read posts, beaten badly.

A MIRACLE posted:If you guys are mixing do you usually match the old song 2 the new song or the new song 2 the old song? new to old, otherwise you'd make very noticable pitch bend corrections to the currently playing track, which would be embarrasingly apparent. you control the tempo. transition to a new track and perhaps push up the tempo before you mix in a new song, gradually as the set progresses. Its all you baby.

A MIRACLE posted:OK, after you mix in a new song do you speed it back up or just keep it at the old tempo? Back up? Ok, a track is playing right, at a certain tempo, say 129. You go to the other deck and listen in your headphones on the other track. Lets say thats 127. You start track 2 in time with the downbeat of track 1 (assuming you know how to count this), and you would clearly hear track 2 would start to lag behind pretty rapidly. You use pitch bend on track 2 to get it back in time, and adjust the pitch knob/fader up, and repeat this until you no longer have to use pitch bend to keep it in time. Now learning to hear if a track is faster or slower is something you will learn in time, but its one of those things that you can learn and almost never forget so dont worry about that. Naturally, there will be some fluctuations in tempo, so personally, I just make sure they will play in time for atleast 30-60 seconds. I also check if it drifts over time, if it drifts up, or down, for when I need to make small corrections. As you begin to learn, the whole process will take its time. Dont worry about it, just reset everything and try again. After a while you should be able to nail this in under a minute. As for loving around with the tempo; I've personally never experienced a DJ that actually slows songs DOWN after a mix. Most push progressively upwards throughout a set. Danny Tenaglia famously pitches alot of his tracks down to get that deep dubby tribal feel over his sets, but thats a different story. Oh and for the love of god try to avoid using a bpm counter while you're learning basic beatmatching. Those can quickly become crutches which you may become too dependent on.

wayfinder posted:Something that I've noticed with your mixes (and from this thread, yours only so far), is that you frequently have the kick drums of two songs colliding in a way that makes them drop the bass more or less completely. For a quick example, take the transition in Laminar Flow 17 @ ~55 minutes in. I can't imagine it's a conscious decision because it really takes away from (at least my) enjoyment of the mix. I keep wondering if it's a software thing, or some kind of phase issue with my listening equipment or what, but it's pretty irritating sometimes. Have you ever noticed it while playing at a club? How about at home? Its phasing. 2 sounds with almost exactly the same timing and frequency = cancellation. 4 Band EQ's and some swift moves on them can get around this quite easily.

GozGunner posted:I love that track, was on Sasha's Fundacion...but yeah once I saw the Argy/Bajka combo I had to get my hands on it. Argy also did a good remake of Bottom Heavy which is the other track on that EP. Cheers for listening, glad you liked it, at least the end bits. You mean Beanfield - Tides? The Carl Craig mix? He severely messed that record up with effects and loops from the carl craig stock mix. Anyway, Digweed just charted Upon Ourselves, the mix you used. So good catch!

vanilla slimfast posted:Here is my opening set for Lee Burridge from this past Saturday. About 40 mins of downtempo/chill stuff, and then works its way into deep chuggy techy house. I definitely kept this one lowkey in order to give Lee a proper start. Starts around 70 bpm and ends somewhere around 121. this set was excellent! Exactly the kind of poo poo I'd wanna hear watching a club filling up while having a drink. Smooth as gently caress, good job!

I, too, have made a summer mix! But mine is a collection of high-tech house grooves. Clocking in at just over one hour, it should be a bitesized piece of progressive and tech that hopefully will give you the same images of the summer sun and all its glory as these tracks do to me. Finished off as always with a modern classic. Gpal - Aegean Sea (Nikos Diamantopoulos Remix/Kai's dirty intro edit) Slytek - Minima Noiz Feat. Satory Seine - Space Migrator Remo - Mizar (Audiofly Remix) Andrea Oliva - Sombatiki Solaris Heights - Thema Guy J - Lamur (Henry Saiz Remix) Derek Howell - Throwback Ictus - The Look (Chris Lake Dirty Breaks Mix) Link to stream Link to download
