[cryptology]

Enjoyed it. Rejection is such a great track.

[sethM522]

thanks bro, and yea its dopee

[ill0gical0ne]

wait wait wait.. you're in high school and have that equipment? you're lucky that you have rich parents... I've had to scrounge for all of my equipment.

[sethM522]

i payed for that.. i life guard for a management company.. 15$ an hour ;) saved up for a while.. its not that much i know, but without mortgages and shit.. 15 an hour adds up quick

[sethM522]

except the laptop, they payed most of that, cas i gave me desktop to my sister, nd needed a laptop neway for when college comes around.

[ill0gical0ne]

you don't really make use of the effects included with the cd players, mixer, or torq/conectiv.

[sethM522]

mixer, i use the effects alot.. not in this vid.. only the basic ones like sweep nd stuff. The cd player "effects" which are looping and hot cues basically (aside from likie reverse) don't work well with torq, nor does cuing a cd with the cue button, its much easier to scratch it in. as for torq, i just use it for easy access to music, not gunna lie, i have no idea what sort of effects are really on there, haven't experimented much.

[sethM522]

Junior year of high school has been hectic, and haven't had time to mess with this set technically. Before, i had denon 3500s and dxm 09, so yea.. once summer comes around i hope to master these babies. thanks for the listen tho bro. appreciate it.

[ill0gical0ne]

decent mix... but what's the point of owning all of that nice equipment if you aren't using the features that they have?

[sethM522]

which ones would u be talking about? You mean by using it in vinyl mode alot? if so thats just cause i like to keep it simple, and "old-school" if you will, alot of the time. doesn't mean i dont use the platter, but for something like this, or other non-tech mixes, i like to imitate vinyl.

[vinyljunkie07]

Are those Sony MDR 7506 Headphones??? If so what are they like? Also a handy tip>>Don't ride the pitch control on the cdj's like that > speed/slow down using platter then adjust accordingly with slider. Also try the 1000 in CDJ mode, very nice for beat matching

[sethM522]

yea, i was using the cdjs in vinyl mode, and pitch riding as much as i could for the most authentic vinyl feel, but lately i have been using cdj mode and the platter. I love the 7506's they are real nice. Sound great, but aren't as loud as others i have used, so u just gotta turn em up a little, and they are dope, best sounds i have used.

[vinyljunkie07]

Cool, Have you used the Sony MDR-V700 headphones before? That is what I'm using and have been using for 6 years! They are not bad DJ cans but shit in the studio (muddy mid bass) I want something new you see. What is the bass like on them? It's between your cans or the HD25's

[sethM522]

the bass isn't great, can't lie, but it does the job it needs.. for their price, they are awsome... i think the hd 25s were more expensive, prolly have a little better quality, but idk.

[Truetrancestar]

YESSSSSSSSS HATIRAS - SOMETHING ABOUT YOU...definately an anthem for summer 07!!! very nice mixin man

[sommia]

and the track at 5:50~

?

thx

[sethM522]

hatiras - something about you (hatiras mix)

[ash9445]

This track rocks, LOVED how you mixed it. Yeah, Jr year is a bitch this year...

you're way talented, this is an awesome mix.

[sethM522]

yea, next one i will practice before i upload, this was more freestyle.

martin solveig - rejection is the 2nd track.. martin solveig club is the mix..

[mrguanio]

avoid cutting out vocals

[sommia]

nice mix

whats the name of 2. track?

[hangloose86]

what a pile of wank

[sethM522]

=/ well, okay.

[denisisubercool]

transitions are beatmatched well but the transitions aren't smooth.

you cant cut the vocals and start a new song.

[DJTGM]

ya i agree beatmathing is great but transitions are very short.you just cut straight into the next tune

[TerFlynn]

wot a state of a young fella

[pokerprince82]

set up seems good. mixing is a bit sketchy tho kidda. just cutting out of tracks is 2 easy !

[Tricky3003]

Its not a formula, but generally the mix out points are at the end of the 2nd phrase. and each phrase is about 15 seconds on average, so its about 30 seconds.

[sethM522]

okay, great thanks for your help bro

[Tricky3003]

Its simply mate....you don't need to count at all..

Just after 8 bars you hear a change in the music. Be it a little crash, jutter, double beat, crescendo something you'll be able to spot in 90% of dance music. Thus no need to count.

Basically the 64 beat is the end of the second phrase. I.e you have 8 bars (1 phrase), then another 8 bars (2nd phrase) and then mix out then...

[showbizben]

If you're quick mixing cut between tracks on 32 or 64 beats preferably 64 it's when all transitions in 4/4 music happen so sounds natural to the ear. You did on some but not others. It was good and impressive you got that many tracks in but you mentioned your long smooth mixes, I'd love to hear that on a mix of yours if you could hook me up with something longer.

[sethM522]

sure. I have some on mp3 ill try to upload later, but ill do some smoother ones on a video soon. I'll keep you uploaded. I no it may sound very "newb" of me, but I'm not exactly sure how i would go about knowing when it is the 64th beat without counting, which is kinda tough to do, especially while mixing.

[hypercatjohn]

he's talking shit, nobody counts 64 beats haha, what a loada crap, just know your tracks, thats all you need

[sethM522]

lol, yea.. thats true, most important part of djing i'd say is knowing ur music

[hypercatjohn]

if you know your tracks that well, then the need to know what key theyre in, what bpm they are, where to cue/mix/juggle...all that knowledge will be instilled without needing to know the technicalities, practice makes perfect

[DjJoeCardoso]

hey showbizen whats up my fellow soulseeker. its me joseboogie

[showbizben]

Good to see you on hear bro. Hope you've found some stuff of interest amongst the mixes. It'd be cool if you got a chance to post. Later Joe.

[sethM522]

negative bro, its actually a djm800. i love the xone 92 tho.. Ill check out ur mix now. jamie cs from the faderwave stickam?

[jshilly]

nice mix mate, love your set up is it that a a&h x-zone mixer. have a look at my tenminmix's see what you think.

jamie cs!

[siefive]

that was very nice. i love the first song and how you mixed it into the next... keep it up

[Tricky3003]

Nice but don't be a slave to your pc. You have cdj 1000s you shouldn't need a pc!!

Trust me use the cdjs how they were meant to be used - you'll enjoy it way more.

A couple of the mixes were a tad abrupt but i suppose you;re working to time constraints.

[sethM522]

thanks bro. yea, i did use em alot, prolly cas i haven't listened much to the tracks, so i cheated with the wave map to cut at the "right" times. I should put the comp over to the side or something, so i dont cheat next time ;)

[Tictactoez]

omg, Stardust - I got this on an old cassette!

shame on you for not knowing this loungey classic

[syntse]

You do too rough transitions. Some were ok. Good beatmatching and bending there. Also some of the tunes were just too different from the sound of each other that it didn't sound good. But anyway nice mix.

[sethM522]

thanks for the comments bro. Yea, some toons def. didn't go together to well. They are pretty ruff, but i didn't intend them to be smooth. I gotta work on my quick transitions, this is really my first experience with the quick stuff as opposed to long smooth fades. Thanks again.

Seth M

[syntse]

Ah ok. Not easy stuff indeed, should be possible to be smooth I think atleast ellaskins can make it so. We'll we are so far away from his skills tho.

[m1xmast3r]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet ^^

[sethM522]

thanks :)
