that is not a trainwreck man, he didn't fuck up real bad. his beatmatching was really off, but i don't consider that a trainwreck. a trainwreck is when you mess up so bad that you can't even play your transition off as acceptable. he would have to try to bring it back to correctly beatmatched and then mess up and make it sound worse and then it would go off beatmatched again and the music would sound funnny because he would keep changing keys with changing the pitch to get the beatmatching back. then that would be a trainwreck.
this was only a bad transition. listen to scot project's newest set with him actually stopping a record because it's messing up, that's a trainwreck, and unacceptable.

People make mistakes,
DJ's are people,
Therefore, DJ's make mistakes.
Have you ever heard a live singer sing a little bit sharp, or even flat? Ever hear a live drummer in a rock band get off tempo a little bit? Ever hear me DJ (Hehe)? I know that I would be a nervous wreck if I was playing for a few thousand people and having to be subject to trainwreck-spotters (aka DJ's at a party who arn't DJ'ing).

That's funny, i was just listening to that set.
and yeah, there are quite a few sketchy mixes. Even the very first one is a little off.
even the gods of DJing mess up sometimes.
However, neither of those posted is a trainwreck i would say, just a little bit off..
i just got my decks, i will post some trainwrecks for you! hold on a minute.

OK, now THIS is a bad transition. mixing melodies between two beautiful tracks.
the melodies go really well together, but near the end, the incoming song is going way too fast. i would hate to do this in public, but this mix sounds SO good when it's done right.
but i screwed it up, so i did a backspin at the end just for the heck of it. probably wore out my record a bunch doing that.. oh well.
And this second one.. ooh, it's nasty too, just couldn't get the beats matched.
Hopefully i will get better with some practice!
we are all human, even PVD.
