oh, i remember someone always mentioning djprince.net everytime harmonic mixing came up.
i thought it was either dj flesch, or dj thy, not sure.
anyway, i did a search and your name was in one, so i assumed, maybe i was wrong.. sorry!

Well, Eon - Pocket Damage is in Gmin and is 138bpm...
I could do all of my Ferry Corsten vinyls if people wanted it. Is there any demand for this? Or is it just me and JohnSmith.

Dulcie Holland - Master your theory (Grades 1 - 8)
That's the series I've learnt out of. (Well at least up to Grade 6 cause that's all I needed for A.Mus.A and L.Mus.A.)

didn't we discuss this already?
doesn't the key of the song change when you change the pitch anyway
so unless you know what key you changed the pitch to, then wouldn't the whole key thing be useless?
at least that's what i think was written last time...
i could be wrong
EXACTLY
what would be the point? unless you had a huge database that you carried or seriously fucked up all your sleeves... ?
but if you can memorise some combos by all means it would be awsome...

Don't know about you, but I only own 30 vinyls, so my "database" would be one page of paper. And I guess I could just about memorise that. Mind you I prefer not to memorise two songs that go together well. For example Planet Funk - Chase the sun and Rui da Silva - Touch me mix well in together. However, once I'd done this mix four times live I decided that if I play it again I'm going to drive myself crazy. It kills originality.
Ferry update for this afternoon:
Veracocha - Carte blanche (original mix) Bb min 140bpm

It's all about developping a method, all my records are arranged by key. But it doesn't mean you should forget about your tunes. It's not because they will be in the same or a relative key that it WILL sound good, there are other factors to take in account.
But after a while, when you are used with harmonic mixing, you shouldn't do all that "take a keyboard/piano and compare" mumbojumbo anymore. You'll have gained the ability to tell the key just by listening (well most of the time, some are not so easy to tell).
