I would like to sign up for this challenge.
It seems like we're just making a hip hop mix no problem. |
So are you trying to say my mix took no effort? |

No I'm not saying that for me it's no problem because I make a lot of chillhop music. |

| I'm not sure you entirely understand the point of this thing. |

| So far I took a listen to Jack's set while cleaning... some swell tunes in there, the peak of the set was definitely that Bicep/Simian Mobile Disco jam. |

| Enjoyed all three but so far have to list System-J at the top for me, just personal preference I enjoy that style more than the others. |

Nice one, Jack. Listened to this during a long morning run on the beach. This set progressed nicely, as I thought it was going to be suuuuper deep and slow the whole time, but it started picking up the energy as it plodded along. Really liked this sound, made me feel like I was in a dark industrial city. Also the cover is brilliant. Well done. |

Cheers Nick. I'm back from my trip to Italy and finally got around to listening to yours this afternoon. It's completely different to the vast majority of your mixes, which are generally about mad energy, but I really enjoyed it. The flow is excellent, the tunes absolutely lush, and there are no wobbles really. Just really good music presented in a pleasing sequence.
You've also given me some new artists to start digging into, as I don't know nearly enough jazzy hip-hop and have rinsed Nujabes to death by now. I'm halfway through that Esbe album as we speak. So you've also fulfilled that other role of the DJ - the select-ah bringing new music to the listener. Nice one, brother. |

Really happy to read that review, Jack. I appreciate the kind words. I figured this would be fresh music to your ears. You know, mixing high-energy psytrance, breaks, and all the other psychedelic sub-genres can be quite difficult. But for whatever reason, making this mix felt really natural to me. Perhaps I should dabble into sounds like this more often.
I've actually made a few other hip-hop mixes, the links are in my set archive. Thanks again for the listen! |

I think you should definitely dabble some more, Nick.
For the record, my mix is going to be very late :o
I'm not allowing myself to dig anymore, but I'm having some difficulty actually tracking down a couple songs I feel a passionate need to play :( |

I am considering implementing a 3 week extension for some of our stragglers. I have sent private messages out to each of the remaining DJ's who have not submitted a mix (except you Lews, since you have posted regular status updates :p).
If you guys still need some more time, please take an extra 3 weeks. Let's make it October 23rd. |
