I was thinking...do you guys think it would be nice for TA Dj's to be able to have a thread where all of their material that is online would be available? There are many TA dj's that have multiple sets, and i think an archive might be a great idea to have more exposure.

It would probably help those that get little attention get more exposure as well.

opinions?

To be honest, I was thinking of actually creating an archive thread for mine recently - this could be a much better alternative that would provide some exposure for anyone willing to put the effort in.

I say do it, and also TA DJ promo circle jerk mafia for laife.

i agree, do it up

i think a whole buncha people should get together to do one massive mix, just record a mix under the same idea, have all people send their parts to another and have one person mix them all into one. would be like a huge 6 hour set from 6 people with great talent here

I would have sex with all this ideas.

I think it would work better if you had one person start, have that person finish the first hour, then send it (the mix) off to another person and have them continue for another hour. and etc.

yep, that was my idea as well, just so the other person has the idea of where to go with the mix

This thread is not really about the megamix...but i am game for that too.

what i would like, is suggestions on how this archive thread would move smoothly.

assuming they will even sticky it.

i think the things that are essential are:

tracklist
label info
genre

open to suggestions...if a mod or admin approves a sticky i will take care of the rest.

lets hear it...suggestions.

I agree with your idea, and on top of that, I think we should categorize the sets by genre.

Maybe this could be an actual website with a search function to search by genre, artist, set title, and other parameters. This needs to be done, there are plenty of excellent amateur sets on this site, and like you said, too many talented people go unnoticed and unloved

I would be down for creating it, I'm a computer programmer for a living, I wouldn't mind writing the whole website.

As long as you take it easy on that demotivational picture

I could set up a database with some specific fields:

Title
Artist
Length
Genre(s)
Tracklist
Link
Other Notes (label info, etc goes here)

Most of these fields are going to need to be filled out, and it will have to be a collective effort, I can't write a script to fill this shit out for me unfortunately. I'm not that talented

If anybody else wants to be a part of this effort, we can make the site.

Artist

Mix Name:
Tracklist:
Genre:

ex:

Rob Turner

Mix Name: Live from The Oval Office
Tracklist:deadmau5 - not exactly
deadmau5 - faxing washington
deadmau5 - clockwork palin
Genre: ambient
download

each artist gets a new post so they can have their very own page, and those that want an archive post of their mixes would submit/pm you or another person helping out, the entire layout of the post so the person that maintains the page isn't arsed to do it for the DJ.

but to make sure the thread is locked so it doesn't get messy.

this is a great idea, would make things much easier to find.

there are many ways to do this, i would really enjoy an organized layout where people search based upon genre
