10. dj tiesto - goldrush (dj montana remix) (7:55)

That was two different mixes done in three days by me. Completely different but I loved them both

i think there are too many people that only want one type of music top be played....branching out and droping different types of trance, or house and mixing them in together is something i like to do...and i also like to see others do it...

of course the choice of tunes is very important you can't drop just about anything, but there are people out there that like to experiemnt and move outside of the trance stage and drop somep progressive, maybe some prog house after...and so forward...

one guy that comes to mind is timo...his sets are awesome

being able to do this (once you get better at it) shows roundness and imagination...and for sure it will put everything you know to the test including talent of transitions and selection of songs

thumbs up for the djs that experiment outside of one genre...


ps: nice track lists

As far as im concerned its all music.
I play on emotion and energy- I dont give a crap what genre it is pigenholed as.

Anyone listen to Erick Morillo@space for radio ones 10th yr in ibiza the other week? He dropped Lipps inc 'funky town' smack in the middle of the set- and the crowd were singing along to it when he dropped the fader. It worked so well too! He does the same with love sensation and various other things. Perfect example.

Think outside the box and ignore other peoples narrow mindedness- it may set you apart from the others and give you some sparkle if you do it right.
The way I see it is you can all be like sheep and copy one another, or you can try and push the envelope and do something unique and individual.

All my opinon of course- but each to their own.

i go back and forth with tech house, electro, techno, acid, minimal and breaks almost every other track. mixing genres up is excellent when done right.

of course, if you are an idiot, as some DJs are, who are spinning really funky deep house and jump to schranz out of nowhere, well, it will sound like ass.

but whoever says mixing genres is a no-no needs to wake up.
