thanks for the advice everyone.

don't know if anyone has that particular track (7 cities) but it's got a very distinctive bass-line that seems to drive the whole melody. the way i mix at the moment is to bring in the incoming track at minimal level and slowly switch it over starting with the bass to sort of give the new track a "foundation" to build the melody up. guess being flexible is a big part of DJ-ing huh. i'll work harder on it.

cheers,

carreux.

that's pretty important if you mix early.
