DeLorian's Half Hour of Power
Posted on: 20.02.2013 by Sharan Neadeau
Hey guys! New to the community here, and I'd like to get an opinion on a mix I made a little while back.

Take a listen and leave your feedback! Good, bad, ugly is all fine with me as long as it's HONEST!

I made this using Traktor, an Akai MPD 24, a Behringer BCR2000, and a Native Instruments X1

Thank you in an advance...
Let's take it to 88!

Good! Sync can be tricky in traktor. it's deff not a catch all. I have had to put 8 beat grid markers in tracks sometimes. Just depends on how well the track was produced, and if it was a vinyl rip or not. I always tell people, sync will get you to that 90% but you'll still have to do the last 10%

Good effort, but needs some work I believe.

20.02.2013		I mostly agree with Lingk - There are some cool sounding tracks in there I'd like to look up, but not everything goes well (I don't quite get what the disco tracks are all about, but I believe that's just me).
I couldn't identify many mis-matched beats around the 21m mark, but there seemed to be an off moment about 21:27 and again at 21:40 or so. And yeah, that song just dropping out.
The vocals at 4:00 are hard to hear, and again at 16:55.

It always has to be said though: Selection, selection, selection. A track lasts about 4 minutes, a mix lasts about 30 seconds, which one are the audience going to remember?
