    big up with the harvey kartel! he's my homeboy

    nice mix on the whole, good selection (other than the dubious chart spatterings...)

    what was it mixed on?

    Yeah Rustie put me on to Harvey Kartel through his Boiler room mix. Big fan of that sound!

    To be honest I like a cheeky chart spattering. I'd like to think the remixes in there are still remixes of songs that were good in the first place (kanye & J, Del Ray, Gotye, even cisqo!)

    Cheers for the feedback!

    nah man, i mean mixing a beautifully crafted limited vinyl only track like blawan's 'getting me down' into a big hands in the air electro track like Dj fresh and dizzee rascal - doesn't really work in my opinion. (vibe-wise)

    yeah man, i'm spending a lot of time in glasgow at the moment, that's where all that stuffs happening - it's insanely fun

    but yeh, i mean in terms of vibes, there's a lot of chopping between genres - which makes the energy feel a bit up and down and the mix generally not really cohesive. (i feel that may have been what the *sigh* was for)

    but generally good selection as i say, and the mixing sounds fine - keep at it

    Ahhhhhh see what you mean. It was the other way round in fairness, out of DJ Fresh into Blawan. But yeah I know what you mean, it probably wouldn't work in a club and it steps down the energy a bit.

    In answer to your first question, it was mixed internally in Traktor with 2 Midifighters and an X-Session Pro. Still trying to figure out how to record my external set up!

    Yeah i meant blawan from dizzee (just decided to say it in a way which made sense to me at the time, but reads totally wrong haha!)

    I dunno man, it feels like the step down in energy happens a bit too abruptly as those tracks are very different in vibe..

    i tend to pick out a tune which i want to get to, then think 2 or 3 songs ahead rather than always trying to fit it in straight away. it's quite a nice challenge too. The quickfire half hour mixtapes or hour long sets are a different kettle of fish, but when you're giving yourself that much time in a mix you might aswell take a bit of time to work through a progression?

    on a different note, i saw mosca again last night and he absolutely killed it. best set i've seen from anyone in tiime! (and i've had a good few months of decent gigs) - definitely a guy to go see at any opportunity possible. Especially as he plays a jungle vip of tilt shift which obviously he's never played on radio or anything so it's never been leaked.

    just insane...
