Calvin Harris - Flashback vs. Ashley Wallbridge - Melodies

Hello,

My name's James Bong, I'm 21 years old, and I've been mixing on Virtual Dj for about 3 years. I've been using a wireless Logitech Keyboard and Mouse to make my sound. Didn't really find the need to get a midi-controller, as helpful as it may have been haha. I guess I'm what some would call a bedroom Dj. Figured I'd upload a mix to see what people think.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBRiu4sH6Ks

The tracks used are:
Calvin Harris - Flashback (Eric Prydz Remix)
Ashley Wallbridge - Melodies (Original Mix)

This is my first upload and I'd really appreciate your feedback, negative or positive.

If you enjoy what you hear, please check back for more.
If there's a demand, I will supply.

Thank You and Enjoy,

jb

It's a nice idea, but there is a lot of clashing and clipping throughout the mix.

In all honesty, if this is what you have came up with in 3 years of DJ'ing, you should be trying way harder.

Best of luck.

Woscar:
Well it depends what you consider to be a transition. I had about 4-5 cues on melodies which I played at specific parts of Flashback.

Adam 420:
Thanks mate.

Sushipunk:
True I suppose, I guess it's more along the lines of a mashup?

Amduscias:
Yes?

A.B:
Yeah, I was listening to it again today after a good nights sleep and I agree that there are clashing and clipping segments in the mix.

The longest mix I've made is about an hour and a half long but I found the transitions to be a bit weak, maybe because I'm using keyboard and mouse or just the tracklist itself. I have been thinking on working on a new one though.

Light The Fuse:
Bong by name...and then once I entered college...bong by nature haha

it doesnt sound terrible, though it doesnt sound great either. i was once like u too and virtual dj isnt the way forward, try abelton or something.

oh. try to spin something other than house or 'trance' to u, theres simply too much of it.

Is this a single transition? a mashup? wtf is this o_o
