Well my experience (which isn't that much though) tells me techno is a bit easier to mix than progressive or something like that.. Just because transitions can be made more direct, the mixes are shorter and more direct, you can use kill switches much easier, and so on. The hard thing about techno is keeping your set interesting and diverse (but I like that.. it's a nice change from my prog records) |

I find that old-skool tribal funky hip-hop jungle can be a bit tricky especially with all those bag-pipes.
Ya know wot i mean? |

I would think gabber is more or less impossible to mix, I can just
picture the DJ doing one of thoose "The Exorcist" 360 headturns trying
to beatmatch that . |

| IMO, probably progressive trance..mixed the correct way, not with standard outro-intro mixing. Correctly pulled off. |

I would probably have to go with some fast beat country western, thats the hardest for sure...

| I'll go with drum n bass, every time I try to throw down a couple of the dnb records I own it basically makes my head spin. I think I'll stick with my funky breaks, thank you... |

| I think jungle is pretty easy to mix. Hip-hop, at times, is hard. Breaks can be pretty hard. I find it weird how I'm good at spinning jungle but can't spin breaks... eh, oh well. Reggae, that would be hard. Or gabber. Then again, who the would spin gabber? I dunno. |

I've spun everything from house to hard trance to Breaks to jungle/DnB, even chillout.
Personally I have the hardest time mixing progressive. It's difficult to find good progressive tracks that don't sound really bad when you mix em together, and often times in the middle of the mix its hard to tell which sound is coming from which record, so beat matching is tough. To make a progressive mix be smooth and flowing the way it should be takes true skill, both in track selection and in mixing. So far the only Dj's I listen to that really seem to have mastered progressive mixing are Sasha, Digweed, Max Graham, and a couple others. Often times in their sets they will mix two records for up to 3 minutes straight!
P.S. - My friend and a lot of other Jungle hedz say that Jungle is the hardest to mix, trust me, its actually pretty easy. I have a harder time mixing trance.
They just suck;) |

I KNOW MAN! It makes no sense, But Jungle to me is so easy, but breaks I have a really hard time with. I'd have say that's the second hardest thing for me to mix:(
Also, I think mixing a 4-4 track out of a breakbeat track is pretty simple, but mixing a break beat track out of a 4-4 is very difficult to do well, anyone else feel me on this? |
