| lol ^ thats funny - where is the Bunker located? Any spots have consistent trance nights instead of just the occasional promotion company coming in and taking over a random venue for one night? |

haha he is a techno dj. or i think. def not trance : )
what everyone is lacking to tell you is that if you want a fast track to stardom, you must sleep with me. Being that you are a girl of course!
if your a dude.. well good luck! |

| sounds like you get enough as it is with those advances. Not stardom - just exposure. As I said Ill play for free I dont mind - in the backroom of some C-list venue just as long as I can make out of BK and into Manhattan. |

| Haha just bored at work. Don't take me seriously. if you want serious advice read all the previous advices. these guys know what they are talking about. and no one can help you virtually really. you must come out and be seen. at least post a mix online. im sure if you bring skill won't be long before people will ask for you to come to play along side! |

But a yearmix isnt a good promo mix. Im working on a new demo now. And yea i def gotta get out there and be seen. Whats a good approach to talk to promoters anyway? I wanna go to Stay on Monday for trance night and idk how to approach the promoter... |

| ^^ if your interested on internet stuffs there are a kazillion internet radio stations. you can send them demos and ask for a mothly show but make sure you can commit and bring them quality. And then be certain to promote yourself well. its another good way to get exposure. wont get you a TON- i mean, realisticly, radio shows are a dime a dozen...actually no. radio shows are comepltey free and number in the upper tripple digets on a weekly basis- but do it anyway :) |

so i took a listening to your mix and i give it a:
these are my opinions , i dont mean to be mean just strait with you.
first impression: excited about the tracks but how are you going to fit 50 track in 80 mins.
starting to listening to it
--track selection: 8/10 very cool selections
--vibe of first half of your mix : 5/10 , just like i thought as the first impression. you had too much happening too fast. good mixing, i wasn't bored but i wasn't feeling the vibe either.
- 10/10 for dropping Ice Mc's thing about the way. haha that got me excited
- vibe of the other half of your mix: 8/10, an contrary to what i said above you pulled this off very well. even though for a trance mix you were cutting off too fast you really had a great energy coming out of this second half
-overall : great mixing skills. but for my opinion trance mix should not have a 30 sec cut. its a kind of music that people need to connect to it.
i give you and overall grade of 7/10. and that's because the second half saved you. |

I tried to style this after Armin's Year Mixes and the way he does them. He does 80 songs in 120 min so my 50 in 80 min is a bit more loose. Either way, thanks for the input. And hellosam, where do i find these internet radio shows? u mean AH.fm or something much more third-party and underground? Would appreciate the help - I def wanna look into this. |
