I mean, yeah, some of the transitions are those quick mixes, but with some of these older house records that's just how they were made, that was the way to mix back then. |
The mix into Swayzak - Love Stronger was almost non-existent. The one where they had to put "Essential, Essential" all over it near the end was another, though I can't pick it without listening through the whole thing. There's another one around 1:40 where the whole flow dies, then shifts. Maybe it is a function of the record, but you can always cut the track short for the sake of flow.
Like I said, I liked the mix, I just think I'd have liked it more if the mixing weren't so shoddy in spots. I put it on for someone else this week at home because I said she should listen to it and she's fairly discerning when it comes to DJing/mixing and after that first mix, she looked at me and was like "WTF was that." I had to switch to the James Talk mix from a few weeks earlier.
And yes...I don't know what a trainwreck is...
I might not DJ, but I go out pretty often as most in NY that know me will tell you. When you compare someone who mixes genres all over the place like Danny Howells and does it fairly seamlessly, the mixing is suspect here.
