| 24 min mix classis hip-hop Hey guys, I just made a 24 min mix with some classics (2pac, dre, snoop....)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxECpQroIFI
from 4 to 8 min, there's a bit too much of beat juggling (many will say "it sounds like crap" but don't care , it was like some training for me )
Enjoy, feedbacks are very welcome. | Twyla Tylinski

The beatjuggling was often off beat.
"one criticism, if you mix out of one track then don't drop it back in again off beat"
What I mean is you mixed out of the track then played the other track again in a random place and totally out of sync. You just need to work on your timing.
I don't get this (I'm not an english speaker), you talk about the transition between "the next episode" and "who am i" ?
This transition is quite smooth. What I mean by transition is the smooth mix between two tracks.
and what do you bean by "flow"? (i know the meaning, but i don't get it)
By flow I mean the mix has a groove and keeps to a set pace as in it doesn't slow down or speed up too much and generally "flows" (it's actually quite hard to explain this word!) | Caprice Gerbasi

The transitions between tracks are good and the use of EQ is ok (one criticism, if you mix out of one track then don't drop it back in again off beat). All in all it's not a bad mix - keep it up and you'll get there.
