A little Bio about myself before I add the link to my newbie set, I would like to let people know a little about myself. I ran a semi-successful online Dj store through eBay. Good ForTune Records which later became Good ForChoon Records...I had a gimmick where everyone who bought a record received a fortune from a fortune cookies. Anyhow I had 3 distributors for new vinyl and I also bought used collections and flipped them around for cash..I even bought records from semi-famous Dj's on di.fm how names I can't say. Things were good but all the paper work for Federal taxes and state taxes overwhelmed me. I also had to listen to each used record and some of the new ones to make sure the sound quality was good..next thing I know I found myself being more of a business man and a vinyl collector than an actual bedroom Dj. This always bothered me..anyhow the business went under in mid 2006 with digital becoming so popular..I was throwing some stuff out and found a mixed demo I did on cassette in late 2005. First demo that was worth keeping in my eyes. It took about 6 hours to find these few songs to mix together but it took me about 3 days to get the beat matching right..thus the cassette was recorded over and over and over again which made the sound quality bad and to top that off I was using a cheesy mixer that only had 2 gain knobs..no lows, mid's, or highs...since then I am still spinning vinyl and have gotten little bit better...give me your criticism on the set..I can use it and hopefully I can put out some more quality sets later on

Here is the Chafa set. it's only about 40 minutes long

Quick suggestion... make sure your file has a name ([something].mp3) for the next time you upload it.

Was it that horrible...i know the sound quality is really poor.:eek:
Dojomaster26
Not counting the sound quality, I like it ;)

It has a nice old Epic Trance feel to it.

yeah this sound definitely takes me back.

i enjoyed it. the mixes were a bit drawn out. a bit old school, they certainly don't make tracks like these anymore.

when you saw drawn out...do you mean I should have mixed the songs more at the half way point than at the last 8 to 4 bars instead

in trance (back in the day, lol) i'd utilize the last 2 mins of each tune to start bringing in the next.

this just sounds very cut and paste.

does it atleast keep a certain kind of groove (if sound quality was better) or is it lacking in the area also..I think I am mixing the last 1 minute to 30 seconds of the song to introduce the next song...I didn't use the crossfader for one single transition
ModernNosferatu
Well, I've always been better at Chess than Djing lol :thepirate

I have a set I'm working on that will be better sound quality due to computer with burn drive ....see if the feedback atleast say's I appoved a bit that will be later in this month
