I'm maybe posting in the wrong part of the forum...
Posted on: 24.05.2012 by Aurelio Cavazos
but the other day I finally found the recording button in traktor, and tried to record myself for about 20 minutes. It's probably not what most people listen to here, but if you have the time it would be <3<3<3 with some constructive criticism. And yes I totally fucked up the last transition.

That being said, I'll see if I can find some time in the next few days.
Oh.. I can't find it... where is it?

Seeing a track listing may make it more likely for me to listen, when there is a ton of stuff I've never heard before, not because I want to trainspot, but because this is something more interesting than a top 10 list. Which is the goal of most people posting mixes, is to get some feedback, and spread the joy of their selections. It also makes it easier for me to give feedback, as I will have the track title in front of me.
this is spot on to me. if an artist puts their time and dedication into making an amazing song and you are using it in a mix, the least you can do is credit them, especially if you are making money by playing their songs. if i can help a lesser known artist to make a little money for doing what they love, to allow me to do what i love, and have other people hear it and love it...then we've come full circle and that's a great thing.

i spend an insanely large amount of time finding tunes i like as well. i have to sift through hundreds of meh and even bad tracks sometimes before i find that spine tingling, awesome underground concoction. when i find it, the last thing i want to do is keep it all to myself. i want to tell as many people as i can so they can hopefully support the cause as well. that's exactly the reason i made a choice to become a dj. to spread the word and convert new folks to (hopefully) new sounds.

I'm sorry, but I disagree. I'm not sure where or when attaching a track listing became "en vogue". It might get your mix listened to more if you post one and it might not but "when I come from" if I posted a track list then I'd be letting you "trainspot" my tracks. I spend a lot of time culling my tracks and cultivating my sound, why the Fu(k should I just give you the names of the tracks I spent so much time to find? Not hatin', just sayin'.

Gave it a listen today.
Sorry but I have almost no criticism for you. Transitions were pretty smooth. A couple could have been a little longer, or maybe had a piece of the previous song layered over for a bit longer to make it seem like the same song, but that's about it. With that style of music I just believe it sounds better to have longer transitions in general.

All of your selections went together well. So good work! Keep it up.

...So you guys are saying it's insulting dj to dj if i listen to your mix and hear a song that I really like and want to know the name of? sheesh....

Yeah i totally agree. People need to quit telling people to post a track list, shits annoying and is considered trolling.

Its not required too. We spend the hours on end selecting tracks were not going to hand them over to you.

Either listen or quit bitching about a track list.
