Does anybody just have a ty time mixing and you just ing blow up. The same thing as when you are driving and someone cuts you off, but for mixing vinyl. I'm trying to record a new mix and if I wasn't such a perfectionist then I would be done by now. I keep ing up and in turn I pushed over my speaker which hit the wall, which then hit my lamp, which then broke along with the lightbulb and then smack on the floor. Sometimes I just wanna say IT!
peace,
Steve:mad: |

I can see that happening with me when I get my long awaited decks... not that I'd start destroying my own stuff, but I can relate because I'm a perfectionist too. That's not to say I'm perfect... but I just need things to be right, you know?
It's something I need to get over, which I can't see happening for many years because it's a major part of who I am, who I was brought up to be. I struggle to write english essays all the time because it's such subjective work in comparison to simple "right or wrong" mathematics... I guess that makes me more of digital person ;) :D lol as opposed to an analog/artistic/outgoing person, who I'm working on becoming. *sigh* good luck! |

| Do you think Tiesto, Ferry, Armin, and PVD got as good as they are by breaking ? Something to think about........... |

I just had a little -fit, today has been a rough day for me. Everything that happened today came out in my mixing!

usually mixing calms me down!
when i am stressed from work, life, whatever.. i can always find comfort in my tables, in my vinyl even if i am not 100% on-beat that day |

Yeah, i've had days like that. I don't usally get angry enough to push over the speakers though, i just yell and scream a lot, and then turn off the decks and go sulk and watch TV.
or, i put on a mix of oakenfold and listen to how bad he mixes and it makes me feel better :) |

Hey, it happens to everyone.
Some days are just worthless when it comes to mixing.
The beatmatching might be a tad slow, you bring in the following tune
too early/late, you cut the old tune off to early/late and so on.
Happens once in a while.
I just dont break things, I just gets so incredible pissed that I
turn everything off and just act like a bitch for an hour, then im
a-okay. ;)
Altho you should be an perfectionist, no matter in finishing
off things that you yourself aren't happy with. |

| this has been happening to me a lot lately...although i don't throw around my gear. My mixing has sucked,often enough its because i'm not in the mood,but i try to force myself and it just doesn't work. i've been kind of tired of mixing lately,although i still by vinyl. lately i've just been into listening to my tracks. |

hahahaha...funny guy
Yea..sometimes you just don't feel it...when I suck I REALLY suck and get all pissed off at myself. Sometimes I just feel it inside me and I feel like a mixing god..lol
I try not to force myself to mix if I don't want to...that way when you mix you will enjoy it rather than criticizing yourself for every mistake.
It's all good man...we all have those days before...like today!!! I sucked ballzzzz:whip: :whip: :whip: |

yea, there are some days when i couldn't mix chocolate milk with a spoon (although those are getting pretty rare these days)
i just leave it, come back to it later
i try not to mix mad
you just end up dwelling on and make things worse
i like to clear my mind before i mix, so i can devote all my attention to my mixes |
