lol, DJ Rouz in full effect!
I know the best trainwreck, the longest it's whatever u wanna call it. Listen to DJ Jean - live at trance energy 2002!!!
People make mistakes,
DJ's are people,
Therefore, DJ's make mistakes.
Have you ever heard a live singer sing a little bit sharp, or even flat? Ever hear a live drummer in a rock band get off tempo a little bit? Ever hear me DJ (Hehe)? I know that I would be a nervous wreck if I was playing for a few thousand people and having to be subject to trainwreck-spotters (aka DJ's at a party who arn't DJ'ing).

That's funny, i was just listening to that set.
and yeah, there are quite a few sketchy mixes. Even the very first one is a little off.
even the gods of DJing mess up sometimes.
However, neither of those posted is a trainwreck i would say, just a little bit off..
i just got my decks, i will post some trainwrecks for you! hold on a minute.

this threads getting good 
OK, now THIS is a bad transition. mixing melodies between two beautiful tracks.
the melodies go really well together, but near the end, the incoming song is going way too fast. i would hate to do this in public, but this mix sounds SO good when it's done right.
but i screwed it up, so i did a backspin at the end just for the heck of it. probably wore out my record a bunch doing that.. oh well.
And this second one.. ooh, it's nasty too, just couldn't get the beats matched.
Hopefully i will get better with some practice! 
we are all human, even PVD.

i can hardly even tell with the paul van dyk one but actually now i can its way of
hmm..ok...thx for sharing JohnSmith.
so ppl, post some more trainwrecks then
(btw DJ Astrid is female )
I would like to post one or two (I distinctly remember one from Tiesto's DD set) but I have no concrete server to host it on- someone give suggestions?
The PvD one was pretty obvious (double beats towards the end of the sample) but I guess you have to give it to the man for correcting it so fast.
Ampburner is right...

Really I think this sounds unacceptable for a DJ playing at a venue like the < OMG the mixing is sooo off!(set can be downloaded from this site btw, if you would wanna check it out...) this is about as bad a transition as I have om my comp right now (of course I only keep the good sets), but give me an example of what you consider a trainwreck then? (well known sj's only) |

hehe yeah i think the great thing with the top djs and why they dont even sound that bad when it does fuck up is they correct it so fast! hats off!
PvD fucked up in his Ultra 3 2001 set in the 39th min..
they could make trainwerks... becouse maybe some are under drugs...
dont u think is possible?

By far, the worst trainwrecking DJ is Mario Piu. Download his Trance Energy set.... Almost EVERY mix is a trainwreck.
And I dont think he was having a bad night eiehter, from what Ive heard, that kind of mixing is common from him
Everyone makes mistakes. Even the best DJs out there.
Now, if it's happening too often, then that DJ needs to get back to the basics.
guys get your terms straight. Having your beats slide a little bit off IS NOT TRAINWRECKING!!!!!
a trainwreck is when the beats are off so much that you can distinctly hear both beats from start to finish.....the little galloping phasy soubnd you get when they are a little bit off is no big deal. Most often a trainwreck is induced when your beats are a little bit off then you go to correct but you correct the wrong way IE: speeding up the record when you need to slow it down.
I've found that it's much easier to criticize other DJs once you've been working on learning to mix well yourself.
Doesn't mean that I'm going to be in the ballpark of say, PVD anytime soon, but it tunes your ear to notice things that you wouldn't have heard previously.
