TrancEaddict Battle Of The Mixers Volume VI

OK, here we go, comp mix 6, this one will be sorted a lot better than the last one, me, Ian, and Neo have already decided that there needs to be a better Judging structure and better communications so us 3 will do it and 2 others as long as they promise they can basically fall in line when we want stuff in by, no farting on for months on end this time.

Closing date for DJs: 1st May 2003
Closing date for mixes: 1st June 2003
Closing date for results: 1st July 2003

There will be no exceptions for DJ entry, however exceptions will be made if people are having problems uploading with slower connections. My suggestion is to send your mix to somebody with a fast connection for them to upload.

Mixes must be submitted in 160kbps Mp3 quality, CBR or VBR, no Mp3-Pro files are allowed.

You may mix with:
1. 12" Vinyl
2. CDs
Only acceptable formats used to mix with are CDs and Vinyls - NO Mp3 Mixes

All DJs must state how they have made their set, ie which formats used.

All mixes must be recorded live, no using multiple mixes and sticking the best transitions together.
You may plan and practise your mix, but not to the point that it becomes robotic.

Mixes must be at least 60 minutes in length, a maximum of about 80, but if its 90 it ain't important, just no 3 hour sets, etc.

All mixes must be uploaded with a tracklist, a cue sheet would also help. You may combine both into the cue sheet, but remember not all CD writers support that type of cue sheet so be careful when burning.

Contestants may not also be a judge, you have the choice to be either, not both.

You may not download other contestants mixes.

You must mix trance, this rule bends as far as progressive and hard trance. Contestants will be disqualified for extended use of non-trance music.

Mixes will be marked on the following categories:
a) Track selection and play order
b) Beat-matching
c) Transition harmonics
All sections contain 25 marks, no section is worth more than another.
A percentage will then be calculated from these three areas to give a better comparison.

You must actually mix to gain marks, snapping together of tunes is not allowed. That is not really DJing.

All judges will have to be appoved by me and will only be accepted as long as nobody else has any problems. Judges must take this duty to mix seriously. All mixes must be marked on skill and the way the contestant progresses their mix, NOT ON PERSONAL OPIONION OF THE CONTESTANT OR THE SONGS HE WISHES TO MIX. Although contestants must abide by the tracklist rules.

Judges and Administrators have the right to reserve and change/ammend these rules.

Luke

If people ask why this is beginning and the other hasn't ended, it's mainly cos of the time it takes to get one going, we may as well be doing it now than wait & miss out another couple of months

Good luck to all involved!

i might actually have a bash at this one.. got to find someone with good decks to do it on tho.. mine suck balls

pity we cant do techno tho..

i wouldn;t completely rule that out.....some techno might be seen as hard trance (depending on who's listening). and besides, Jason Jollins won the first compo playing pure prog. house!

Hey put me in again luke
