Just like AVB did in his ASOT 182. He played something like 80 songs in two hours. So 15 min? So you gotta squeeze in about 10 songs to keep up with AVB. Showcase your skills and trance.

ok, if anyone wants to have a listen to the set that i played in the last round its now available HERE!

I will admit that the actual mixing in the recording is really not as good as it should be, there are quite a few mistakes, but i recorded it the day after the comp so i was a bit hungover, and all mixed out haha.

Ah that was indeed a great night :D:D:D:D:D

what mix of olive is that at the start..........?

And kicking into southside spinners.... good idea- always a crowd pleaser. (get a new copy of it though... :stongue: )

If you can mix with three decks, drop an acapella over josh wink. I personally use either Dj pied piper- 'do you really like it', or Sparks and kay- 'Fly bi', or tag team- 'whoomph there is is' drop the start of the rapping when the first beat kicks in after the first breakdown (the one thats playing while southside spinners still is)- ill see if i can record it for you to show what i mean.. They fit over it absolutely perfectly

nice mix- its in key too. Full of high energy tracks and crowd pleasers- very very important on a student night to play BIG tunes.
No stupidly long breakdowns either. MIxing is clean and quick.
I like the way you start and end on the same tune-ives it a purpose..i do that myself sometimes!

Play that again with some additions and you will do well!!!! Nice use of scratching too.

Awesome- :)

honestly mate hats off to you for that set, was excellent i thought for how much pressure you must have been under. great stuff :eyes:

wait... u didnt answer if u had more than 2 decks/cd decks/etc.. or if you did, i missed that announcement.

if you do have the option of more than 2 decks, get one track playing, and then get a remix of that track going too... hopefully a really similar remix, with very similar structure. so you mess around creating a live remix of the one track, and try mixing into a new song from those 2, or throw bits and pieces of yet another song on top of that.

i hope that was understandable....
