Should Tracklistings be Included in a Promo?

Should I include a separate piece of paper of track names with a promo mix CD I am handing out?

when i send out a promo online, i ALWAYS put a tracklist... but when I give them out in person, i just print them out looking super sexy and give em away.

for online stuff people need more than just a link unless they are your close friends, most people online want to have an idea of what they are getting into-

Yeah, I'm referring to giving the mix out in person specifically. I actually just posted this mix in the DJ Promotion section recently, tracklisting included. The link is in my sig (but noone on TA seems to be noticing it ). Thanks for the feedback.

It's because there are hundreds of mixes that get posted weekly there, and most are of the same genre/style. Have to offer something different to get noticed.

Yeah I completely understand. Having listened to many many sets however (some of them on TA), I'm really not lying when I say that mine is something special .

You could start by changing the thread title from "At last!...", because that turned me off it almost immediately when I saw it last week.

Also, you may want to be a bit more humble ("Not to blatantly self-promote, but it is a very solid mix"?). Based on your tracklist alone, your set isn't anything special. I don't generally listen to that kind of music and I know pretty much every artist in there.

Yeah I see where you're coming from, but since my name has no recognition on TA, I thought I should put something else in the title.

You mean it has to be tech/deep house.
