you could also check the last page in the harmonics sticky for my mix which didnt use mixedinkey but my ears, which are much more reliable.
and then read the entire sticky, which will give you everything you need to know about how to mix harmonically. its really quite easy with a bit of practice, its FREE, and dontcha just love figuring out how your music works? it might even give you a sudden hunger for production.
just my 2 cents. |

| 32 songs in 5 mins just sounds stupid. |

Listen to it first..
I thought the same, but i have to say it obviously isn't something you want to hear all the time, but the tracks really are fluidly joined together (obviously seeing as ableton was used) But the track selection is spot on.
It's an accomplishment in my eyes to get 32 tracks to work together in such a short space of time. but it's only a once in a while thing which is what i think this is.
just my 2c |

it doesn't sound stupid at all, s3nate. You could at least take 5 minutes to listen to the damn thing before saying what you think.
Nice job Shane54, this sounds great :) harmonic mixing rocks. |

| hahaha, this is awesome, really, the way he has everything layered ..... that T/L just doesnt work either, i dunno how you'd put sections where he's got like 3-4 "bits" playing at the same time, but it is really really good!!! |

I dont think the mix was made for promotional purposes as far as listening to the mix. Just to show the power of harmonic mixing and what it can do. |

Shane has many examples of harmonic mixing on his site. I've listened to at least 30 of his live sets. I asked him to put together a mini mix and we were happy with how it turned out. It's a fun example of harmonic mixing. Pretty cool what Ableton Live and lots of DJ experience can do...
I think he should submit it to Annie Mac. She has 5 minute Mini Mixes on her Radio show. If you haven't heard it, it's on http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/dance/anniemac |
