Tranceaddict Mp3 DJ Mix Competition VII
View this Thread in Original format
djsphere
Closing date for DJs: 30 November **
Closing date for mixes: 31 December
Closing date for results: 31 January

**Only 25 competitors will be allowed.

Rules for DJs:


1. You may mix with Mp3s in Real Time (Traktor was the most used for the last one).

2. All mixes must be recorded live, no using multiple mixes and sticking the best transitions together.
You may plan and practise your mix, but not to the point that it becomes robotic.

3. You may not download other contestants mixes. The mix must be exclusive for the competition.

4. You must mix trance, this rule bends as far as progressive and hard trance.

5. Mixes must be 60 to 80 minutes in length.

6. All mixes must be uploaded with a tracklist, a cue sheet would also help.

7. Contestants may not also be a judge, you have the choice to be either, not both.

8. All DJs must state how they have made their set, ie which program used.

9. Mixes must be submitted in 160kbps Mp3 quality, CBR or VBR, no Mp3-Pro files are allowed.

10. You must actually mix to gain marks, snapping together of tunes is not allowed. That is not really DJing.




Rules for judges:

1. All mixes must be marked on skill and the way the contestant progresses their mix, NOT ON PERSONAL OPIONION OF THE CONTESTANT OR THE SONGS HE WISHES TO MIX.

2. Mixes will be marked on the following categories:
a) Track selection and play order
b) Beat-matching
c) Transition harmonics
All sections contain 25 marks, no section is worth more than another.
A percentage will then be calculated from these three areas to give a better comparison.

3. You are not allowed to share any kind of feedback about the mixes until I post the final rankings.

4. Your marks will be sent to me in this format: tracklist xx/25 beatmatching xx/25 harmonics xx/25 on each mix.



Both DJs and judges may be disqalified for not following the rules.

All judges will have to be appoved by me and will only be accepted as long as nobody else has any problems.


Judges and Administrators have the right to reserve and change/ammend these rules.

Oh hell, might as well have a go at this. Put me down as Jake J.

Funny question! Do what you think it would be better for your set, but stick to the rules. OK?
