The best mixing i've seen!
Just found this video HERE of Eddie Halliwell. Never seen mixing like this before! Any1 know the tune?
Don't know the track, but the stuff he did was pretty nifty. I wouldn't call it mixing though as I didn't really hear him bring in another track, just mess around with one track and scratch it on the 1000.
Len Faki - Just A Dance Part 2
What he's doing there actually isn't all that impressive. He's just looped that annoying sample that he's been using for fucking yonks now, and then the rest is obvious. It looks more impressive than it is because of the amount of enthusiasm he puts in. Eddie Halliwell is an entertainer, i'll give him that, but as far as DJ's go he's nothing special.
edit: Cracking tune though.
oh right/// to an untrained eye it looked fuckin impressive tho!!!
Indeed. I was at that night btw. It was his Godskitchen debut I think, and he was fucking hammered. At the end of his set he was speaking on the mic regarding some comments Tiesto had made about him in mixmag, and how Tiesto was shit. Then he proceeded to get back on the decks and play Tiesto's version of Barber's Adagio, and do loads of live effects over it. I'm sure anyone that saw him at some point in 2004 will know what i'm talking about, he did it loads.
damn...yes very entertaining indeed. Does he continue doing those kinds of things througout sets? Seems to me, things like that might have to be rehearsed, at least to the degree that he is doing it. And what is that a sample of that he is using?

You can download the same clip here if you want a copy on your hdd 
No doubt in small doses this is amazing, but he rapes the effect to no end. If you like this, just check out James Zabiela. He knows how much to do.
What comments did Tiesto make about him? I don't recall reading or hearing about this.
I give the guy credit though, even though it's a loop, it's a good way to get the crowd pumped. 
fucking MC!

the kid has enthusiasm, or he's on ecstacy. none the less, i think that there should be more djs like him (in a way) DJs who interact with the crown, feed off the energy, and become a part of ...
worth watching, put a smile on my face...

| Originally posted by Tayfoon Not true He doesnt do the scratching and FX that much, I think Zabs does it a bit more then him, if you see him live youll understand. He always does crazy stuff like this on the first track to get the crowd pumped. He is the only Trance DJ worth seeing. He has undeniable talent, showmanship and even good tlists. The guy is the shit, and he knows it too Mikey Mike : If putting on a show is not impressive, how is standing arond like an ass for 3 hours and beatmatching like armin or whoever else do is ? Any local dj can beatmatch, its all about the extra thing you do to make yourself stand out |
its like scratching [what non edm djs do sometimes 
] only i think its mostly effects built into that cdj. whats sweet is you can do that using just loops and then go right into your song, even if you just have 1 or two of those top-of-the-line cdjs.
loops->in recorded into the player, not on cd.
and that club is FUR aka GLOW in D.C. :

well either way what eddie does i think is cool / different! If i was there i'ed be pumped... no doubt...
if you wanna see eddie scratch go see him at a festival, as far as your average club night goes he doesnt tend to scratch that much anymore, well no way as near as he used to. i always found him hit and miss, sometimes he can play a blinder, but sometimes hes way off, rather like julius ceaser (aka the judge).:>
max
what did tiesto say about eddie
"...he's better than i am technically but he doesn't produce anything."
he may have said more, that's all i dug up
That was fucking stupid as hell.
I love it when trance/progressive DJs scratch and add effects but that was a poor example of it being done well and a poor example of Eddie. Granted it can only be done so much until it gets annoying.
ah yes, the ole "cut the bass" trick.
aka the first actual mixing trick DJs learn how to do. Simple, but effective, and fun, but still very simple. You can learn how to do it in 40 seconds. If this seriously impresses you, you haven't actually seen any good DJs yet.
OMG that sample is so annoying
haha, looks like he's trying to have sex w/ the table. oy.
it is pretty sweet tho, when DJs actually do some effects on the tracks.
