Hey guys,
This is my first post at TA, and I'm posting my first set! I've been dicking around Ableton for a while now, and I've come up with something that I think sounds cool. Put some awesome tracks of this year in there, and I'd like to hear some feedback so I can produce my next set even better!
It starts out a little housy/prog-housy, goes on to some melodic trance, on to some tech-trance and ends off with some hardpumping stuff.
Tracklist:
16 Bit Lolita’s - Passing Lights
Spider, Legaz - Psych (Original mix)
Alex Monakhov - Roundabout
M.I.D.O.R - Magnetic (Original mix)
Mark Norman - Touchdown
Leon Bolier ft. Elsa Hill - No need to come back (Club mix)
Purple Haze - Eden
Pratap - Modulator (Process EP)
Carlos - Silmarilla 2007 (Leon Bolier remix)
4 Strings - Take me away (Purple haze remix)
Arctic Monkeys - Sun Goes Down (SvD Remix)
DJ Tommyboy - Poseidon (Sean Tyas remix)
Sander van Doorn - Dark Roast (2006 Re-fill)
Fred Baker vs. Greg Nash - Lunar Eclipse (Eclipse EP)

Hey cool, I just posted my first (halfway-decent) set up on TA yesterday. From the looks of your tracklist, you've got the biggest tracks on the year on this bad boy. I like to delve into the older stuff myself, but to each his own. Looks like your set does a full run from prog trance to that newer style of insane bass trance SvD does, this'll be interesting.
Solid mixing on the first transition. I like how the bass transitions, even though I'm not into the track so much. Third track jumps in quick and sounds very cool. Damn, that's nice. You really pulled off the move from prog to melodic very well, I wouldn't have noticed unless I was specifically listening for it. The bass in your set is tremendous, fantastic! I've got the sub on my computer cranked! This Mark Norman track hits so hard, cool. Nice move to vocals, making sure the people on the dance floor don't have a heart attack. I love Eden, solid track.
Your mix draws heavily from SvD, but he's huge right now, so I can't complain. The beatmatching is superb, track selection is great, I have to say I'd expect to hear a mix like this in a fancy New York club or something. I thought you would lose the energy because it started off so huge, but you kept it up! Your mix is all about BASS, and with a massive sound system it would rock the house. Even though it's not so much my style, I want to dance my ass off. Great mix! |

| ableton auto beatmatches so the mix is going to be flawless. only thing you can get wrong is the harmonics of the tracks. |

Oh, thanks for the heads up! I'm less impressed now, but still a very cool mix. |

I'll check it out and let ya know what I think. Sort of looking forward to hearing something done with Ableton. Only sets I heard using Ableton were from big names, so this will be interesting.
Rock On,

Wrong. Ableton treats sound as "elastic", so you can "warp" it by inserting markers. Ableton is not out-of-the-box DJing software you can just throw tracks at. It takes some skill to warp properly and keep it in sync :) |
