Start listening to a poo poo ton of more music. Bloghouse is a great way to get into it, but a lot of stuff you won't find most DJs spinning at a party (deathelectro is a great example of good music, but not to fitting for raging). Dancehall, House, Bmore, Disco, Dubstep, etc. Get traktor and a cheap little mixer to gently caress around on. I bought an X-Session Pro and it's perfect for loving around on and it's only like 100 bucks. Also utilize your keyboard, you'll be mixing a lot from your laptop before you're finally ready to move on and buy a real mixer and an audio interface.

:siren:Looking fo' mo bmore and dancehall inspired electronic music:siren: I've gotten every single one of emynd's and Top Billin's EPs and listened it to death. Looking for more stuff like producers emynd in particular.

Top Billin's "One for the ladies" gets girls wet and gets you laid :ssh:

Seriously though, every time I see anything about Ultra, I feel like crying. The lineup, it's just... every single DJ I love will be there. All of them. Although I imagine if I did go, it'd suck too, cuz I'd constantly have to choose between 3 or 4 of my absolute favorite DJs...

A lot of Len Faki's recent stuff sounds a lot like this (the My Black Sheep and Mekong Delta EPs are worth getting), he's a classic techno producer from way back, this is tech house I guess cause it has that electro sound but it's not very 'housey'. Check out Dusty Kid, Dubfire, Radio Slave, Gavin Herlihy, D. Ramirez, Joseph Capriati, Oliver Huntemann/Rekorder, Mark Broom and Hugo.

I need some insight from you house experts on a mystery I'm dealing with. I recently came across a track of what sounds like an earlier mix of Eric Prydz's "Call On Me" that's labeled as a white label version. The weird part is that it's credited to Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon (aka Together).

At first I thought it was just a mistake but then I found a Youtube of the same track with the comments stating that Bangalter did originally conceive it. The story is that Bangalter couldn't release his version because Roule was unable to get the rights to the Steve Winwood sample but Ministry of Sound was able to do so and hence Eric Prydz's version was what got released.

Wikipedia states that this rumor started because Bangalter & Falcon used the original mix in their sets and an advanced pressing incorrectly gave them credit. However, the citation for this points to Prydz's profile on thedjlist.com so I don't know how reliable that would be.

Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this.

Well this definitely isn't authoritative or anything but i have listened to a shitload of music by Thomas Bangalter / Falcon and all those guys, as well as most stuff by Eric Prydz, and 'Call on Me' sounds FAR more like a French scene track. Prydz never did anything (else) near that good in the sample heavy funky disco loop kind of style, pretty much everything he does is super melodic / proggy and synth heavy. I've never heard that rumor before but it makes perfect sense and wouldn't surprise me at all.

For those of you that like funky house or the french touch sound, check out Louis La Roche, one of my favorite artists at the moment. He's only about nineteen years old but he produces incredibly good house reminiscent of Daft Punk's fronchy style, despite being british. DESPITE BEING BRITISH!!!!!

I'm pretty new at trying my hand mixing complete sets that sound decent, so focus more on the track selection. What do you think?

besides everything else that was said that strobe track is soooo boring dude. dont open with something thats gonna immediately put everyone to sleep. you dont even get a beat going until like five minutes in

Track selection is sort of an crowd specific thing... you'd be surprised how many people think standing around for three minutes during a breakdown is the loving awesomest thing ever... this can be confirmed by deadmau5's entire career arc.

As for actual advice, when moving from flatter to rounder kicks, always kill your low-end on the track you're bringing in. You're never going to get a nice diffusion between them and they'll never phase the way you want them too. If you're rolling with mp3s and a midi controller just wait for a one bar kick-kill in the top track (you can see these incredibly easily in the waveform readout, with records you either have to really know your poo poo or be able to see smaller colour changes in the pitch black), roll the kick back to zero gain and bring in the new one at about 1.5 to 2.0+db

Will sound like righteous thunder. Will get women to sleep with you.
