What CD-Rs to use?!?!

I'm going to burn some CD's for my friend who is DJ:ing on Kos this summer, until september actually. I've burned hundreds of CD's before, whit great success, but my small problem this time is that I wont use the same label on the CD-Rs. I have got 30 Maxell CD-R XLs and I'm planning to use them instead of buying new ones of the same label I'm used to use. I guess tt should work but I can't risk anything coz once on Kos it's way too late for me to correct the misstake. The Maxell CDs are light green/blue/yellow so I don't know how they will work, then once I've used before are TDK blue once. Anyone know how this Maxell CDs work with a ie Numark CDMIX-1 or any other "DJ CD player"?? I really need to know before I start burning which should be tomorrow...

aaaaaaaahhh

Make sure you use 1x-16x high quality cd-r's they work really well
and almost anything picks up on it
except for Sony

Right now I'm using Memorex BLACK 1x-16x cd-r's they're amazing

Don't use those blue TDK ones - my friend had a few of those, and about the only thing we found that could read it was a computer CD-ROM drive!
Also, any CD-R's that have a silver writable surface to give the illusion that they aren't CD-R's, are awful. Steer clear!
Any CD-R's produced by BASF/EMTEC seem to be pretty solid. I reccommend trying these.

I personally think that TDK's and Memorex's are shit so I would stay away from those as those are constantly flawed. If I were you I would get some Imations.

I use BASF cd's. Great quality and not very expensive.

Memorex's are shit.........but these ones are black plated and work really well.......
or try ACER gold they're really good also
but make sure 1x-16x
