<<FULL>> trancEaddict Mp3 DJ Mix Competition III <<FULL>>

Closing date for DJs: 1st July
Closing date for mixes: 1st August
Closing date for results: 1st September

There will be no exceptions for DJ entry, however exceptions will be made if people are having problems uploading with slower connections. My suggestion is to send your mix to somebody with a fast connection for them to upload.

Mixes must be submitted in 160kbps Mp3 quality, CBR or VBR, no Mp3-Pro files are allowed.

Mixes must be 60 to 80 minutes in length

You may mix with:
1. Mp3s in Real Time (Traktor was the most used for the last one)

All DJs must state how they have made their set, ie which program used.

All mixes must be recorded live, no using multiple mixes and sticking the best transitions together.
You may plan and practise your mix, but not to the point that it becomes robotic.

All mixes must be uploaded with a tracklist, a cue sheet would also help. You may combine both into the cue sheet, but remember not all CD writers support that type of cue sheet so be careful when burning.

Contestants may not also be a judge, you have the choice to be either, not both.

You may not download other contestants mixes.

You must mix trance, this rule bends as far as progressive and hard trance. Contestants will be disqualified for extended use of non-trance music.

Mixes will be marked on the following categories:
a) Track selection and play order
b) Beat-matching
c) Transition harmonics
All sections contain 25 marks, no section is worth more than another.
A percentage will then be calculated from these three areas to give a better comparison.

You must actually mix to gain marks, snapping together of tunes is not allowed. That is not really DJing.

All judges will have to be appoved by me and will only be accepted as long as nobody else has any problems. Judges must take this duty to mix seriously. All mixes must be marked on skill and the way the contestant progresses their mix, NOT ON PERSONAL OPIONION OF THE CONTESTANT OR THE SONGS HE WISHES TO MIX. Although contestants must abide by the tracklist rules.

Judges and Administrators have the right to reserve and change/ammend these rules.

01 dj nick trebonik
02 floorfiller

Thanks mr_sick for noticing those of us who wanted to enter from the last thread, and including us in the list for this comp .

does this mean that GOA won't be allowed? I'm not the type of person who really classifies trance into categories, but the music I listen to mostly seems to be of this type.

My mix is gonna be different again, last time was the harder melodic stuff like flutlicht, this one will be tech-trance like klitzing and marco v, should be interesting cos I usually only listen to this stuff, not attempt to mix it, last place here I come

For me there is no problem to start with some break, but your mix must be more trancy than break... because it is a trance competition I suppose you know what I mean

Good luck to everybody!

i'm trying for another very uplifting set with lots of energy...
now that i got my faster computer up and running, expect a perfect set. It has to be cuz a) i got the time b) i really need this for promo reasons.

Requirments are:

- You can hear beatmatch errors
- You know well how a set is constructed
- You can hear when two songs are not in phase

And you like trance

Also be sure to do the judging on time

I count you in as a judge?
