One durable person. One social graph. Many communities—and every way people speak, share, listen, write, gather and remember.
I just had a listen to copy of the recent release from Luke Slater titled Fear & Loathing 2. The mixing on this is bollox. If anyone has a copy of it jump to the transition between tracks 6 & 7. He starts to lose it big time and is even forced to touch the record and it is so obvious.
I would have thought that if a mix was this bad then he should have re recorded it. Maybe the poor man was in a rush. Anyway it is shit.
Anyone else wanna share some shit ones with me?
lol. was it a run away train or a close train wreck?

...with a stampede of out of time elephants walking by.
eww.
yeah. no thanks. :x
one of the hardkiss guys did a mix for johns kiss 100 show a year or two ago. it was really shitty. dont see how it fell through the cracks and made it on the air. every mix was shite. just my 2/5 of a nickle though. :NotMe:
like shoes in a dryer, eh?
My vote goes to Doc Martin's Fabric... :spank: Worst mixing that I've heard on a comp. :Rolling:
You think Luke's mixing is bad, you should hear Christian's!
I thought Disc 2 Nick Warren's Amsterdam was pretty bad. Every mix just cuts in...no real "mix" at all. :|
Warren is famous for crossfsading and breakdown mixing. :lol: I like all his GU's though as his trackchoice and programming is very good.
im not on the same opinion than ou tomtom, for some reson i just dont like the gu?s of nick warren :cry: .....i prefer sasha[SF] who dont :D:D:D:D.......and there one kiss100 of digweed i think was transmited also on radiobu99....on the track fierceness, that i was like? whaaat?...this cant be digweed...maybe some guy aproach to him or something hehehehe, i cant belive

I read an interview where he said he knew the mixing on that record wasn?t perfect, but he preferred to leave it like that, because he?s sick of most mix CD?s out there "not being live", and that makes them fake...
There's a point in that...every DJ makes a mistake once in a while, but on the other hand: hear that same mistake every single damn time you put on the cd isn't really sexy either.
I just d/l'd Moshic at Xpander and was surprised to hear several mixes that were a little off. Not train wrecks, and it was a live set, but still far more than I'm used to hearing.
That said, I'm not the greatest beat matcher to ever walk the earth either. :|
if you listen close ,A LOT of comp cd's, especially ones that came out before cdj's, you can hear the mix floating a bit. unless they did it on a computer. everyone out there has flubbed a mix on a recorded set.
That's true about flubbing a mix, but if you're putting out a commercial release you could at least try to do the mix over again and get it right.

oh, yeah I agree with you there if it is a commercial mix and it is really messed up, you should redo it. I was also making a comment on these people saying about when a mix is slightly off
yeah, nicky warren is a quick mix guy. not known for mixing like sasha and diggers. but hell, that man can level any club on the plaent at any given time. no one brings it like he does on a consistent basis.

You're right about that...you can't front on his track selection.
I could do without the 2nd disc of Rejkavik, but the first one... :RockOn:
i'd rather do without the first cd of that album. It was my first experience of Mr. Warren and I liked it a lot. I'm not too much for chill cd's. When I chill out I listen to what's on my tv. Or read a book.
I agree with you eric about the putting out a real cd. Even if you are doing it live, you shouldn't have it sound like you meant to fuck it up just to make it sound real.
