Calvin Harris

Your transitions are a little messy, too quick, prone to cause confusion in a listener. Timing isn't necessarily bad, but dropping a beat of first song too early in second track's build up kinda kills energy. In places where you were beat riding (5:20+ I believe) it was a bit off beat. Track progression isn't very strong.
You're on the right track though, keep practicing. As far as the music goes, if that's what you love, fair enough I guess but it sounds more like you just mixed some popular tunes. Maybe put more soul into music selection. Strive for cleaner transitions (I know I can say same to myself ha) and did I mention practice?
All the best to you, man!
Yeah I mix top 40 hip hop and house. This was a practice hence my first line I agree with you though, there was one spot where the build up was great and it dropped off into that Usher song (that's definitely not my favorite part.) The crowds I typically play to are younger so I have to play what they like not so much what I like. I personally feel that the music these days sucks but I do what I have to in order to get paid . I'll embed the next one using that tool you mentioned.
Thanks for the input. | Kyla Amerio
