guys get your terms straight. Having your beats slide a little bit off IS NOT TRAINWRECKING!!!!!

a trainwreck is when the beats are off so much that you can distinctly hear both beats from start to finish.....the little galloping phasy soubnd you get when they are a little bit off is no big deal. Most often a trainwreck is induced when your beats are a little bit off then you go to correct but you correct the wrong way IE: speeding up the record when you need to slow it down.

I've found that it's much easier to criticize other DJs once you've been working on learning to mix well yourself.

Doesn't mean that I'm going to be in the ballpark of say, PVD anytime soon, but it tunes your ear to notice things that you wouldn't have heard previously.

i think its understandable when a big dj gets close to trainwreckin. . .especially if they are doin a gutsy mix. i dunno about pvd though cuz all his songs in his sets are reworks and i bet he reworks the songs specifically for mixing ease.
