| Looks like fun. A lot of people here will quickly resort to flaming you and call some of your tracks cheese but when hammered out on really good speakers they are nice to listen to, especially in a club. Throw it online if you are able to and let us have a listen! :D |

| Too many "big" tracks for 1 set, IMO. |

| Like it, don't worry about playing big tunes though. I mean your new at this, and it takes a while to learn how to build up a set. I don't think you always need to build it up, and besides your not playing out so it's fine to try a shot at mixing up your favorite tunes. I used to do that all the time. Now I try to build it up, or have it at a peak and bring it down gradually, thats something I've tried too. But variety is pretty important, and I see you have proggier stuff, mixed in with more epic or melodic stuff, with a few techy stuff, and that's what most trance DJs seem to mix together nowadays, so I think your on the right track... |

What's wrong with having lots of big tracks in one set? |

Ever heard of "progression"? |

As MrMystery stated. The first bit of the set should progress & build up. It's not always necessary, but that tracklist looks to have no actual flow to it. |

True but from all I know the guy is just doing this for fun, hence there's alot of hobbyist DJs out there who don't really care about all that and just want to play what they like. They aren't playing for other people in some club or making a professional mix CD, all the guy is doing is putting together tracks he likes for fun. When you are at home, it shouldn't matter about progression. I think it does have some flow to it, from what I can see of the tracks, he goes from stuff that is a little "deeper" or with slower BPMs, and then builds it up a little to more epic and melodic stuff, more anthemic, and then he ends with a few more banging, techier tunes. I've heard DJs do this all the time, in sets and mixed CDs. Not every DJ builds sets up. I agree, it's great to have flow and progression, but like I said, he's a newbie, and usually if someone is just using software, they are just doing it for fun, unless it's Ableton or some fancy software like that. |

| His set seems to build a little better than a tracklist I had "fixed up" for a guy in a thread from yesterday. It was all over the place, I could tell without even hearing it... |

I don't see why you're being so defensive - he did ask for our opinions after all. Do you really think he would ask if it was just "for fun"? |
