thank you for your feedback... really appreciate all your thoughts and ideas!!!

mix was recorded in traktor utilising 3 track and 1 sample deck and some amateur mastering was attempted in audacity (still learning but dont enjoy)...

i have overlayed a few samples into the mix as well as edited a few blemishes i had when mixing...

thanks again..

I've listened to both the 80s megamix and 90s megamix and here are my thoughts:
  • Great song selection on both. Really hits on a lot of songs that people identify with.
  • Transitions are clean, smooth. Some could use some additional buildup, but overall they were all just really good.
  • Some gernre-mashing was odd pairings, but still done well. Example on the 80s mix was U2 into M. Maybe if you had brought in the M beat over U2 it would have had a slower/gentler song work into the vibe. Same with Hall and Oates into Lionel Richie, although it was a nice break point into the mix to take a small breather.
  • Volume levels were a little uneven, but only really noticeable if you are playing at a low level.


I believe these mixes are really top notch. Seriously excellent work. Question on some of the movie samples that were used. Did you just stage those into your sample decks, or did you do that post-production?
