| when you get a new track, how often do you listen to it before mixing it into/out of anything. |

1 or 2 times. After that, I start mixing it.
Best way to get to know your new records IMO. |

| its rare i actually listen to them first, if i do it is only the once. i usually get them mixed straight away. |

| If I'm getting a new track online, I've almost al;ways already heard it, if not, I'll listen to it online before I buy it. If I'm buying from a record store I listen to a little there to know I want it, then come home and start mixing with it. The best way to get to know a song is to mix it into others and see what works and what doesn't. |

if ive alredy bought it(on vinyl), i listen to each side and see which mixes i like more than others, listen to each side a few times to get a good feel for the track and start mixing...
afterwards i listen to the recording wherever i go... also helps to get to know a track, especially on vinyl |

| I listen to a track several times, to get a feel for it, before I try mixing it. Obviously, when I hear a track, I have an idea of how it could be placed in a set and the energy levels it creates, but usually I'll play it first and then practice with it a bit more before playing it out. ;) |

I usually go to the side that i'm most excited about and listen to about 1 or 2 measures of the intro, build up, etc. and then i'm way to anxious to listen to the whole thing, so i mix out of it...after i do that for a while...sometimes, i'll listen to it a couple of times, or the different remixes, you know, that way the anticipation is not killing me anymore
edit: accidently worded it wrong...it should be "anticipation is not killing me anymore", not "anticipation is killing me anymore" |

| It varies depending on what I'm doing that day, but most the time I get it, take it home and mix it up right away. |
