Yeah agree with that. Also I heard some keyclashes. Beatmatching is perfect but that is the least you can expect with these kind of mixes. I do like the tunes you picked though

You know what.. i noticed that too. I'll have to check the file cause i think i got a bad version I'll fix it up and reupload. (nothing really stopping me from increasing the first part by 3% )

Edit: fixed the tempo problem at 5:19 as well as another problem closer to the end. Mix is reauploaded now with all the changes

Hey mate! I just finished downloading your set. I'll burn it onto cd and give it a listen. In fact, I think I'll score and comment it, just like in the old competition I used to run. How are you doing?

Great mix indeed. Well build and smoothly executed, though not a 75/75 one IMO.

About beatmatching there's nothing bad to say, just a little offbeat sometimes but I can hardly hear that on my headphones (on large speakers it sounds perfect) so 25/25. BTW, better than mine, I thought I thought I'll get 24 on that.

About melodics, you often have both track playing their melodic line while crossfading, which doesen't sound good every time. For example in your first transition you have the basslines of those two tracks playing at the same time from 6:04 to 6:23, than the melody of the first track and the bassline of the second. It sounds preaty bad cuz those two tracks are not matching key.
Same thing in second transition, and this problem continues, though it get's better in the second half. Actulay the second half is way better. It may sound funny but my transitions were too late and yours are too early. 22/25 on melodics.

About the tracklist, all the tracks are realy nice, but it seams to me like I'm listening to two mixes. After that Tiesto remix of Madonna things start to sound quite different. I know you wanted to do a build up, but there's too much energy all of a sudden. When I play one hour mixes I like to keep a continuous flow all the way, or slowly decrease the rithm, but that's just a personal thing. So I think 22/25 should do it.

Once again the second half is what could be scored as 75/75 but the first part isn't that good. Overall, good mix.

Cheers mate!
