that way it would still be all similar stuff but we would get to show a bit more creativity and style and the judge's would be a bit less bored when listening to all the mixes

indeed. Also leaves it more wide open for people who want more tracks to deal with.

That's a good idea. No mash ups unless they are available to everyone. Same for the remixes.
You could always make your own...

I think all mash up's/remixs should b fair personally
You could take two songs from the list and mash them.
I think this contest is more about technical skill and creativity, instead of play list selection. There have been contests like that in th e past; we are doing something different this time around. I don't think playing someone else's mash up is creative.

To those who dont want to do trance, remember it can easily be mixed with harder electro beats or tech house styles too, for an example of what I mean go watch Sander van Doorn next time he's in town. Either way we haven't all agreed to anything yet eh? Im not fussy, I'll do electro house or techy stuff if thats what is wanted but I can throw trance with it too.

I coasted through Beatport's classics and these are the best ones I found. Most of these tracks have several remixes so it'll allow DJs some freedom and creativity in terms of track selection. Chances are that people already have at least a few of the tracks listed, if not all of them. So it'll save some time and money.
All tracks available at beatport.com.
I hope vinyl DJs can get in on this too.
What do you think Import?

Someone should start making some polls on these details. Poll the genre, poll the BPM range, poll the number of tracks, and finally, make a giant poll with every suggested track, with the top 10 becoming the choices. Get to work, person-besides-me!
