i find it hard to belive how good and faultless a lot of dj's mixes are...
i struggle to get studio quality mixes when playing live. at least one track goes off during two hours... but at home my mix discs sound as crisp as a commercial mix compilation.
what are the chances that a lot of dj's just 'act' out their mixing while a hidden prerecorded disc is playing?
ps. this aint trying to ruffle anyones feathers. im just curious:) |

| i guess a quicker mix doesnt show up as much... but i always notice when my mixes dont sound 'perfect' on a big system. i have played on a 30k rig in a 2500 capacity club. i been mixing for longer than ferry corsten but i still dont think my mixes sound great out live. his do tho... its probably just me noticing my own mistakes too much. |

| yes, the booming soundsystem of a club, does spare alot of dj's blushes |

The CD is mastered.
Theres a video going around of the event and his first mix is an all time shocker. Listen to the CD, not so. |

i might have guessed!
that cd is truly a work of art. not one non standout track!
fav: orbital velocity; the last voyage! never seen this for sale anywhere:(
thats shattered my respect a bit for the cd now. |

| I believe the t/l is the same, the set is basically the same. Just some of the mistakes have been fixed up (or at least the first mix) |

| the tiesto cd was re recorded in the studio of course, i couple of tracks are in different positions compared to the live set as well, its still a great cd though :) |

| When I saw Oakenfold spin at Space 3/9/04 I swear I saw him getting a drink or chatting up some girls or something when I heard the next song queuing up. But he was back fast enough to not really have any hard evidence ;) |
