Originally posted by Domesticated but I found a lot of them very Umek-ish, just kind of mindless banging with no real uniqueness. It also seemed like you chained many of these together and there was one section that was just thumping on the spot for twenty minutes

agreed, especially towards the end i was just selecting tracks at random from what i've had acquired over the past few months, i guess they were all in the same vein.

close, this was done on scratch pro (traktor). really didn't go into it with any rhyme or reason besides the opening track, which i got an idea for (to open with) about a month back and that really started this whole thing.

tried to piece it as best as possible at the beginning, create some form of flow. but i'd say there's a good part somewhere in the middle (as you mentioned) where it was just lapping stuff together from whatever was recent and stood out, and make sure it's at the very least blended well.

good review, thanks!

EDIT: thought I really don't agree that it sounds UMEK-ish... at least not from my experience of what UMEK is playing. maybe you listened to the wrong set.

This is a great mix, it's been a staple part of my in-car listening for the last few weeks.

I'm more of a dick-stroker than a chin-stroker, so I should still enjoy it, right?
