Hey there, Just started recording myself last week, I've been dj'ing for almost 2 years. 1st year it was more of a hobby, but the within the last year, I've really put time and effort into it. There are mistakes in the mix, but I figured might as well get out there and do this, it'll be a good experience. Here's a mix I made, and I'd love some feedback from anyone. Whether good or bad, doesn't matter. The recording is not so great, but mind you I just started using this software last week, so I'm still learning. Enjoy the set, and thanks in advance for your input.

Here's the tracklist:

1. Holden & Thompson – Nothing (93 returning mix)
2. Infusion – Girls Can Be Cruel (Infusion s’Qed mix)
3. New Order – Blue Monday (Rogue Audio mix)
4. Sam Sharp – Deep
5. Randy Katana – In Silence (Txitxarro mix)
6. Age of Love – Age of Love (Marco V remix)
7. Lotstep – Burma (Sasha Remix)
8. Jas Van Houten – Heavens Gate
9. Mojado – El Toro
10. Marcel Woods – Static State
11. Marcel Woods – Time is Running Out (Original Mix)
12. Tiesto – Traffic
13. D:fuse – Bodyshock (Threw this is at the last moment for a friend, that’s why the mixing is off)

still listening, not bad for the first mix...
1 or 2 step off beat during some transitions...

From In Deep to In Silence, transition kinda cheesy by fading out the In Deep....

Up to Burma - Lost step now...(love that tune)

Overall, beatmatching is nice. One thing you need to definitely work on is Outro and Intro part of the song. It seems to me you don't really care about the beat patterns when you introduce new tracks. Although I know some DJs does that as their preferences, I think for beginners it's good to follow those rules. Such as introduce new beat after at every 32 beat (mostly for trance if I am not wrong?).....

Thanks for the advice DanAx, I do know EXACTLY what your saying as far as the 32 beats/bars go.. I agree.. ur right about that, I do care. Just still trying to get the simple stuff down... u know?? but I really really appreciate the feedback, just trying to progress....
