Pretty much. The vast, vast majority of girls that I've met, including my girlfriend, don't like wordless music. I find that guys tend to be much more receptive than girls to music without lyrics and generally concentrate on other things (like instrumental melodies, timbre, or rhythm).

I've met a few girls who like classical music, but I don't think I've met any who like wordless electronic music.

leave wherever you are living!


they exist! and rock!

You're pushing into super uglies territory there. You're on your own with that boat.

Originally posted by FromAbove Hey, so the past few days, before Valentines, I was stressing out trying to make a love mix sound good, and it always came out like shit. I didn't understand how to smoothly mix one track to another. Until today. I made a playlist of 10 progressive house tracks. I discovered that the best way to introduce a new track on top of a playing one is by starting the next track with the bass killed until the current track drops into the outro kick stage, if that makes sense. And all the while have an 8 beat loop of the next track playing until that outro of the current, open the bass, and then wait for the new track to go into the "first stage" of its "journey" and then kill the first song's bass. This allows the first song to then be under the new one, and since there is no bass, only the high parts make noise and you can fade it out gradually as the new song gets going. It always sounds good, unless the hi-hats get in the way. I also discovered to lower the treble if needed. All basic shit, I know. It's why I referred to myself as n00b.

you wanna know what really sucks? is that just when you think your mix sounds good, it's actually still crap!!!

lol

now let me explain myself...

when the 'day' came that i thought my mixing was ok...it really wasnt. you know how i figured it out? about 6 months later i went back and listened to those old mixes and they were total crap compared to how much better my mixing had become.

sometimes u dont really know the quality of your mixing until a more experienced dj listens to it.

now maybe you're happy with they way they sound, and maybe you dont need someone else to justify the quality of your mix. if you're happy with it, then rock on!

but when i play live whether it be on internet radio or at club/party and an audience, i like to know that my mix is decent & people arent laughing behind my back.....or at least i like to recognize when a transition goes bad.

it's kinda sad when u see a dj and he thinks he's all good, but he actually sucks...but hey, he's enjoying himself right? & thats probably what's more important (as long as you're not the one paying for the set )

I would agree with this. All the girls that I know that say they love House music, (Read: Bob Sinclair + ATB) love the stuff with vocals, I've spun at a couple of there parties and I rarely play anything that is purely instrumental because they can't "dance" to it.

I know exactly what you mean

I thought I had beatmatching down, but listening to mixes from a year ago, compared to mixes made in the last month, it sounds like two different DJs!

And no, I don't mind chicks that aren't babes. But if they can have a conversation with me, and have some brains...
