Hi there.. im having trouble putting tracklists together. I am looking for tunes that go well together and more importantly tunes that fit nicely when changin style all of a sudden. I'll explain what i mean.
I like to start my sets with tracks such as Moonshine, Solar Coaster, Epic Monolith etc. and then move onto tracks more uplifting such as Dreamland, Can U Feel, etc. and then bring in some epics such as Binary Finary 1999 before finishing of hard with energetic tracks from more harder artist. But i am finding it very hard to make the transition from Set Starters --> Uplifting --> Epic --> Hard/Energetic and finding vital tracks that can do this.
Any recommendations on how i shud go about doing this.. or recommendations on tracks that fit nicely together.
Hope ive made myself clear on what i need help with.
Thanks in advace (and aplogies if i hav put this in wrong forum. i was debating between here or the amater section but the description on this forum said mixing techniques so i chose here :) I hope i hav done rite)

If you want soothing songs...
use Solar Stone - Seven Cities (Armin Vocal Mix) which is good to start off with since it has a intro...you'll need to mix in a song with the same beat....i tried to mix it into solid sessions but it didn't go well...but it goes...
use Jurgen Vries - The Theme (Original Mix)....obviously raise the tempo since this song is slow...
or you can replace Jurgen Vries to Armin Van Buuren - Yet Another Day...
and im not gonna tell you a tracklisting....If you can't be creative with your mind, mixing and song selection then Djing isn't your job. |

I got totally off when I listened to pvd live @ mayday 2002...
Mixing Misja Helsloot - First Second (Original Mix) with Tillmann Uhrmacher - On The Run (Ocean To Shore Club Mix)... I was cuming all over my room! :D
I suggest you listen to that set, it has many styles of music in it!You might get some cool ideas! ;) |

| the mix from revelation into 10in1 on tiesto's dancevalley mix is a sweet combo. He ed it up of course, but it does sound super sweet. |

my fav mixes from this set are from On The Run into PVD's rework of massive. And also from Ayu - M into Dreamland. There breath taking.

i suggest trying tunes that have a weaker beat in them at the beginning, if your finding the transition hard.
i use tunes with weak beats in them if my beatmatching aint happening.
works for me, might not for you.
:p |
