cool, lets get the idea across to more and more people then get everyone to put their name on a roster or something for each category.

I'm in too. Great idea.

Sounds like a great idea.

A way to make the track pool affordable would be to limit the selections to "back catalog" tracks ($1.49) on Beatport. Maybe have a pool of 10 of them, which would require a max investment of $15 (if the DJs are going to use all of those tracks).

or another idea could be have just tracks from producers on TA then everyone could just download a .ZIP file with all the tracks in them. That way the producers get there tracks out 2 ppl and the DJ's get free tracks to work with.

Just an idea but it might work.

Nice thinking!

Problem with that, though, is it'd limit it to people who use CDJs or software, but I think the benefits outweigh that.

Thats fine to have TA artists or Beatport cheapies or whatever, but only some of the time (in fact i really like the idea of a TA artists themed one). Still give the vinyl dj's a chance to enter though, its a bit stupid excluding us from it totally.

I still think it'd be best to be a series, allows different genres and different dj's each round.

Your absolutely right.
I'd want to hear an opinion from Allied Nations(?)

there you go...change genres each month, and alternate b/w TA producers & other stuff month-to-month, perhaps. Trance(ish), house(ish), tech(ish something) maybe.

:conf: The idea is for us all to use pretty much da same choons coz it'll be interesting to hear the difference in peoples mixing styles, ideas others come up with & essentially how others do their funky ting. Do it your way & we lose that.

My 2p - like others said, mix 5 tracks from a pool of 8 or 10, either Beatport cheapos to keep the cost down or classics to help accommodate the vinyl dinosaurs ;) :toothless

Like the idea of using ta producer tracks but like others said it kicks out the vinylheads which is a shame.

PS Trance please :tongue2

I'm in dire need of experience like this, so count me in.
