I'm absolutely brand spankin' new to djing... so I know I suck. I know my mixing is terrible. But New Year's day I got rly rly stoned and watched 21 Grams, then decided to make a mix. Don't ask me why.

13. VAST - Pretty When You Cry
14. Gustavo Santaolalla - Do We Lose 21 Grams

Feel free to harp on me about how bad I trainwreck... I dun' curr! I'll listen to constructive criticism because I need to and I'm sure there's plenty to give. I tried to incorporate the soundtrack into the mix. So all those Gustavo tracks are from the soundtrack and my own live mashups into the tracks. I was really stoned

oh, that second to last Gustavo track was a mistake so I tried to fade in and fade out of it quickly... and I'm far too lazy to edit it out I really should have ended it after Fragmosia... but meh.

Now I actually need to buckle down and get my own, legitimate equipment

Hope you all like it

Nice.

The end part I could really live without from the second to last Gustavo track down to the repeat of the opener.

I've never taken drugs before in my life, but after listening to your mix I understand musically the vibe that you were putting out that night. As far as the whole set goes, you followed a consistent theme and although I don't know what that theme was, it was still present in every track. Your flow was great as well with the exception of the tune at 58:35 because you mixed a RnB/soul record into the mix which didn't fit at all. It's good to take risks just not stupid ones. The tracklist for my tastes are absolute crap, but the point is that you respected the art form. Mixing is not all physical. It's also being able to follow a certain vibe and building on it. I've heard other sets which music I despise and often I find that they have no clue what they're doing. In your case, you knew what you were doing, it's just that this music is not my cup of tea. Other than a few beatmatching errors, there was nothing wrong technically and artistically with your mix. As you can tell I'm not much of an ass-kisser so please don't take my comments the wrong way. Anyways take care and I look forward to hearing some more of your sets, hopefully of a different type of music.

Yeah,I knew the RnB one was going to be weird. That's why it faded in and out. I was going to try and make it work, but totally failed

Thanks for the time spent listening to it though

I cant download this here in my office but that "VAST - Pretty When You Cry" track is a very interesting choice and with being a massive VAST fan myself I cant wait to check this out.

BTW - thaey just put out a new album. I dont have it yet but will be picking it up soon... Keep it up.

JA

Nice. I didn't know they put out a new album. I only have their self titled debut, Nude, and Music For The People. Their debut and Nude are the best imo.

Thanks for checking out the set if you do

I'll have something for ya in return....my debut mix on ETN.fm in Feb that I'll probably post here first

Ah, nice You're getting on etn, ftw!

This mix is dark deeeeep prog house mostly. Mixed with some happy ambient chillout.

Seriously, check out William Orbit's Hello Waveforms album... there's no beat, just happiness. That's where those Orbit tracks come from. That Pablo Roma track almost no one has, and, for that matter, there's almost nothing known about him. He just occasionally throws a rocking deep prog house track out there, some people get it, some don't.

My fav part is when I go from the soundtrack song Shake, Rattle, and Roll into Nathan Boshtick - Vertigo vs. Gustavo Santaolalla - Is There A Way To Help Her & Gustavo Santaolalla - Does He Who Looks For The Truth.

Anyways, your etn set better be available for download
