n00b + Cassette + Vinyl = Chafa Set..give it a listen please
A little Bio about myself before I add the link to my newbie set, I would like to let people know a little about myself. I ran a semi-successful online Dj store through eBay. Good ForTune Records which later became Good ForChoon Records...I had a gimmick where everyone who bought a record received a fortune from a fortune cookies. Anyhow I had 3 distributors for new vinyl and I also bought used collections and flipped them around for cash..I even bought records from semi-famous Dj's on di.fm how names I can't say. Things were good but all the paper work for Federal taxes and state taxes overwhelmed me. I also had to listen to each used record and some of the new ones to make sure the sound quality was good..next thing I know I found myself being more of a business man and a vinyl collector than an actual bedroom Dj. This always bothered me..anyhow the business went under in mid 2006 with digital becoming so popular..I was throwing some stuff out and found a mixed demo I did on cassette in late 2005. First demo that was worth keeping in my eyes. It took about 6 hours to find these few songs to mix together but it took me about 3 days to get the beat matching right..thus the cassette was recorded over and over and over again which made the sound quality bad and to top that off I was using a cheesy mixer that only had 2 gain knobs..no lows, mid's, or highs...since then I am still spinning vinyl and have gotten little bit better...give me your criticism on the set..I can use it and hopefully I can put out some more quality sets later on
Here is the Chafa set. it's only about 40 minutes long

3. Coast 2 Coast - Be With Me (Original Mix)& Dito - Iceland (Melting Ice Remix) <-- my own little live mash up

Quick suggestion... make sure your file has a name ([something].mp3) for the next time you upload it.

Not counting the sound quality, I like it
It has a nice old Epic Trance feel to it.

yeah this sound definitely takes me back.
i enjoyed it. the mixes were a bit drawn out. a bit old school, they certainly don't make tracks like these anymore.

when you saw drawn out...do you mean I should have mixed the songs more at the half way point than at the last 8 to 4 bars instead

in trance (back in the day, lol) i'd utilize the last 2 mins of each tune to start bringing in the next.
this just sounds very cut and paste.

does it atleast keep a certain kind of groove (if sound quality was better) or is it lacking in the area also..I think I am mixing the last 1 minute to 30 seconds of the song to introduce the next song...I didn't use the crossfader for one single transition
