Originally posted by Cable az its not for messing around, in the last compo the top 5 were seperated by about 3 % , slowing down the mix on the transitions to listen carefully to the beatmatching could make it easier to judge. obviously the judges will first listen to the whole mix at its original speed first

Ok, I'll record my mix at 30bpm then speed it up

in my opinion, fast bpm is harder to mix than slow bpm, less precision, and less time to get it perfectly beatmatched. just my two cents.

Faster is harder, so I don't see the point in slowing it down, when we've been doing at a high pitch, if we've not beatmatched right, you can tell anyway

at the end of the day, it dont matter what speed the mix is played at, the mixing remains the same. the idea of judging is to pick the holes in your mixes and determine the best 1, remember 1/3 of the mark is tracklist progression

Hey guys sorry I was away lately,
Is the FTP working?

it all depends on what you're used to , mixing at 120 bpm when u used to mixing at 145 bpm could be a bit hard

when are the mixes due again?
sorry

ya, he is right, when i started mixing, i did it around 140-145, and then i bought all these old school tunnel trance vinyl that were like 155-170 bpm, and i found them hard at first, but when i got used to them, it was like regular, it all depends on how you train your ears, now i can do either pretty easily, so ya

crap, how did i miss this??? when's the next one of these going to be?

there will be atleast one more this year...however i think we should limit them to once a year so we can have like an award for TA DJ of the year.

lol thats a really hard award to give. these competitions are so tight, and really, it comes down to the judge's personal preference, whether you like it or not, when the top mixes are all so technically sound, beatmatching/phrasing/harmonic wise. so giving just one dj the "ta dj" of the year is impossible.

plus there's such a high demand for this, that once a year is too little.

I STILL cant upload my mix, and there si less than a week to go!

I know, i can't get on the server either ...

I'm gonna PM toast in a minute

cheerz

UPDATE ...

I got a response from t0ast ...

due to his SHITLOAD of work he didn't notice it was down ...
he's working on it right now ... so it should be up shortly ...

He also said to me that, again due to his shitloads of work, he can't enter in the comp ...

Anyone willing to take his place on such short notice ???
first one to reply and say the magic words gets the spot ...

Because of the server problems we've been having, the competition will be extended ONE WEEK ..

Mixes due july 7th midnight (I'm on GMT +1 if it makes any difference )

cheerz

server's back up....sorry about all of this guys

unfortunately, like Cyrax said, i've got too much going on to enter a mix this time around...so if anyone wants to enter a quickie, go for it!

i'm getting my cd decks within the next few weeks, so i'll be practiced up on then for the next compo.

meanwhile, i'll be monitoring the ftp for the rest of this compo and for any others we have (if the judges still permit me after all this mess)

cheers all & good luck

...t0ast

aww man...letz hurry up now i can't wait to see the results of this comp.
