What I mean is, every track is bang bang bang, there aren't really any elements to work with, I couldn't really attempt to make unfamiliar music work as a mix when it is just bang bang bang.
I can put something together with little to no effort, but it would just be pointless and a waste of time.
I could work with pretty much any genre, bar this and happy hardcore and hardstyle, as it's all bang bang bang.

It's the ing hardcore you sissy. You can't drink virgin blood and celebrate satans return when the bass isn't pumping like crazy. Or did you think the antichrist listens to Deep House?

Should've done a Group X mix, imo.
Lunar Phase 7
I am really looking forward to all of these.
Is there a deadline?

well in all fairness gareth.. this competition is to make people mix differently.. gabba is easy to mix.. theres not much blending, but more chopping tracks in, and sampling.. its difficult because its faster, so eack kickdrums lasts for a lesser amount of time than in a 140BPM track.. so the margin for error is small
if you need any help with track selection, then send me a PM :)
you know if you give the style a chance and try to learn sumthing from it, you may find you like it.. i was gutted to when i saw i had to do italo.. hell i still dont like it now.. but you find tracks that arnt so , and can even infact be pleasurable to listen to. i beleieve this is the case with all genres

I don't really think so though, if a person does not like any of the aspects that define a genre, there wont be any tracks of that genre that they like.
I have listened to plenty of happy hardcore in my time for example, and there is not a single track that appeals to me at all, but the fact that there are piano riffs and chipmunk vocals still has the smallest of links to the aspects of music that I like (usually melody driven stuff). It's also why drum and bass does nothing for me, but you still get DnB tracks that are very trancey, so I could at a push work with them.
Italo, and pretty much all other cousins of house are about funk and/or groove, and I like that, so I could work with any house derivative, but gabber is just chopped, bang bang bang, drug marching 'music' to me :wtf:
I googled, listened to a few tracks by people like Rotterdam Terror Corps, but it's all just the exact same thing to me, with slightly different samples from track to track... there isn't really much margin for musical breadth in the genre :p
Sorry, to me it is little more than noise arranged to the musical structure of dance.
