I'm just d/l'ing this now. Tracklist looks pretty juicy, and to end a set with an AP track, makes it look even sweeter.

I know I haven't heard tracks 5,6,7 & 8, but the rest looks like a set I'll really enjoy. I'll let you know what I thought after I've heard it a time or two.

Cheers from another PSYguy in Cowtown.

I'm going to download this

Wow.. The_Chris interested in a Full-On set.. Let me know what you think mate!

BTW, for anyone who has d/l'd and listened.. It would be great to get some feedback on the transistions, not so much the beatmatching, but more how to smooth them out.. I'm always disappointed how they sound after the fact, especially when I listen to other psy DJ mixes posted here.. I gotta be doing something different, because I know the transistion don't quite work the same as a uplifting, epic trance transistion would.

Cheers.

lovin this mix, specially the first track, which i had not heard before. in regards to how to make the mixes sound smoother, it's all about phrasing and knowing your tunes. psy can be tricky because it has so many places where it drops.. down.. to.. nothing, then SLAM!! if that isn't in the right spot on the other tune, it sounds like ass.

here is a good technique for a psy slam mix:

what you need to do is slowly fade in the incoming track, mostly just mids and highs, bass low. then, right when the incoming goes quiet before the SLAM, crank it's bass up, cut the volume down to zero on the outgoing track, while it's down, crank the bass down on the outgoing (even though yes, i know the volume is down). Then, when the SLAM part hits on the incoming, crank the outgoing back up.

this gives a very nice slap in the face to the dancefloor, and drives the energy through the roof.

that's of course just one way to do it, there are many others. i really like the style of mix you did for the first track into the second, that is another one.

cheers mate, really diggin the mix!
