quote: | What do you notice when a set is "poorly mixed"? Is it beat-matching, tempo, or the selection of tracks used?
I agree that the track list is stellar. He's made a fan out of this TA and I'll look forward to new mixes or tours. |
when people claim that a set is 'poorly mixed', it can mean many things.. but usually people are referring to the transitions. even if the beatmapping is perfect, the position where the next track is inserted can make a huge difference between a good and bad mix. this is usually determined by the knowledge of the tracks being played, because if you know a track inside and out, you will know when the breakdowns/buildups are, when the beat fades, etc etc..
another aspect of 'poorly mixed' is beatmapping, finding small breaks or jumps of beats, but that is usually pretty obvious..
one final key aspect (well i think that it is really important!) is the flow of the tracks. sure, if the beatmapping is perfect, and the transition is perfect, but the first tune is a light trance song and the second is a hardcore techno.. there may be some problems! (of course this is just an extreme example, but you get my drift) these livesets have to be seen as a whole. each track individually is important, but the way that they fit into the whole set is really important..
i would have to agree with just about everyone else on this.. the set wasnt a perfect mix, but the track selection is great. 7/10

Great tracklist...bad mixing. I'd give it a 9 if the mixing was better but I'll have to say the set is a 7/10, and i loves driftwood - freeloader
