Mix - Tracks 2-3 from Set by DLovas

Did everything my self no software help. All the software did was tell me the BPM's and they werent even that accurate so i had to tweak em a bit - otherwise i played around with the eQ and the everything. tell me what i can improve please thanks guys.

Seems fine to me.

With the software telling you what bpm there's not really much to do but your phrase matching seems to be alright to me from the short snippets. Which quite frankly is more important than beatmatching them (at least these days with all this software around).

Dunno what the hell that 'Dj Dlovas' soundbite is doing in there if you've only been dj'ing a week but horses for courses and all that.

2nd snippet I think the gain on your incoming track is a little on the high side. I'd maybe take the volume down a bit and pull the volume down a tiny bit while your incoming track is coming in so that the overall volume doesn't increase too much

All in all though after dj'ing a week that's really good.

Took me at last 6-8 weeks to be able to pull that off with my vinyl decks..

wow thanks man - i've just been playin around and listening to a lot of mixes so i guess i sort of tried to mix similarly - and the dlovas thing i had done for me a while ago so i could put it in my tracks that i produced in logic and stuff - figured it went nicely here.
