Do you base your judgement on a liveset by track selection or mixing technique?

| Ok, this may seem like a dumb question, but i'm just curious... do you guys base your judgement on a liveset/compilation by its track selection or the mixing technique? I know that there are some out there that have terrible mixing, and some that have awesome track selection... so what do you guys consider more? track selection or mixing technique? |

i would say a bit of both..
but if i were to choose.. i would probably say good songs would come first..
but then again.. good songs which e mixing won't do.. so its hard to say which one is better =) |

a bit of both:
Mixing is for judging the dj's skills
Track selection is the part for raving.
,so for judging a set I just combine the both. |

For me as a fan its definately track selection, I mean if the DJ can do amazing mixes with tracks I don't like I won't care....
But of course in a perfect world I want both :D
Cheers,

For a good set you need both... you can have cracking tunes but no dj skillz at all and it'll sound e, same as you can be god on the TT'z and have wack tracks and that'd be e too. So its all both... get what i mean?

The mixing skill only makes a difference if the DJ is either really good or really bad :)
An awful DJ can up amazing tracks, and an amazing DJ can make awful tracks sound good IMHO. |

| I would have to say that a good track selection is the difference between a class or nite. However if mixing is good and tunes are pumpin who really cares as your probably full and otherwise engaged anyway, unless you are sober and can hear every up made by a dj. |

You know what the thing is:
Anyone can make a good and kickin' trackselection.
One of the problems is that not all tracks are easy to mix into eachother. A priority for a dj to be really great is that he can mix in almost every song.
If someone doesn't agree, let me know, cuz I have no experience in dj-ing. |
