Just finished listening to this mix.

Wow. Clean as bloody hell, high energy!
I love it when a DJ mixes and it is next to impossible to tell when he/she is trasitioning. I know song number 2 amd 6... the rest, wow. Repeat. This is a great harder set!

Ok i lied. since edit time is limited to .001 seconds after the original... i have to add a new post. his mixing is actually kinda bad. High NRG yes but there are alot of echo beats. He can catch em up and match em towards the end of the fades but the beginning of the fades are very sketchie

I love that song too.

but what the other guy said. yeah. a lot of double beat/echo beats *what ever you call it*

it gets really bad @ 65:55 :D

Just wondering, was he using 3 tts? it sounded like it.

I have to back up Mark Oliver on this one. One of the problems with the booth at Viva is that there is to much low frequency bass in there from the huge sub that's in there. It is located directly behind the dj and I've been told by many djs that have played there that it is hard to pick up on the beat when there is soo much rumble in the background.

Regardless, this problem is going to be fixed shortly; I had a talk with the sound engineer last night. They are going to raise the frequency coming out of the bass box.

Other than that, it's an awesome mix. Lots of tracks I've never heard before.

A local dj here who dj's at Guv and Viva and some other places. His mixing is pretty good live. I just blame the equipment as I have seen hime before and it's always pretty good.

Mark Oliver needs to get some more practice on his beat mixing. His set was one of the worst I have heard for a so called pro DJ. He is consistantly off beat (that's where the echoes come in) on almost all of his mixes throughout his set, it gets somewhat better toward the end of the set, the track selction is OK, but his beat mixing ability is to be questioned. I know all DJ's can have a bad night, being one myself, I have had a few bad mixes here and there. As for the reply about the night being to loud and the speakers directly behind the DJ, well he should have got that straight before agreeing to spin there. The bass cabinets should never be directly behind any DJ, and if that were the case, the club manager or owner obviously has no idea of what the hell he is doing. I have spun a many of clubs and raves and would have never put myself in that situation. Needless to say his set was not worth posting, it should have been reviewed more closely to check for mixing quality before posting. I understand he is a local DJ, however I must say I was dissappointed in listening to his set.

Peace and keep spinning,
DJ MADNESS

Man you are a tool, why would anyone would spend so much time to find out so much about something so meaningless. You had to listen to thit mix at least twice to get so much details! How long did you practice to get that good??? Years, decades?? I hope you are extremely proud of your profound knowledge. Because 99.99999% of US simple don't care about the following information
""""""The bass cabinets should never be directly behind any DJ, and if that were the case, the club manager or owner obviously has no idea of what the hell he is doing""""""""
But thank you for sharing it with the rest of the world, because now simply we can go to a club worry about those important things you have mentioned. And seriosly who wants to worry about something like that. Just get a life f___- loser.
