First Tribal Techno mix

[oncletom]

Hi everybody.
I appreciate your work and posts, even if I'd never written anything until now!

I just uploaded my first techno mix, meaning the first mix I actually wanted to display on the web. I'm a complete amateur but I really want to try to play some gigs in a near future. I'm not really trying to live from my passion but rather to enjoy and share it.
That's why I've decided to share it with you now, and I would be delighted to get some feedbacks, even if you want to tell me that my mix sucks (but if you do, a little bit of explanation would be greatly appreciated!).

For those who want to know a bit more before clicking, it's an old school mix with a lot of tribal-like tracks that date back from the 2000's. Using TSP2 but no Sync. Vinyls and timecoded Vinyls.

Here is the link :



Just a little funny anecdote: my DJ name is the French translation of Homer Simpson's nickname "Max Power". So you can call me Max Power if you want to!

I'll be very glad to read your comments.
Many thanks in advance,

Max

Hello everyone!
I uploaded a brand new mix, maybe more powerful and faster for sure.

Here is the link :



Comments are welcome and share it if you like it (and if you want to)!
I also have a Soundcloud profile under the nickname Max Puissant if you wanna go there, too.

See ya!

PS:Can someone tell me how to change the thread title, 'cause there are more than just one mix now. Thanks!

Hey Max, your mix was very well done, great selection of tunes, I definitely learned something new today (actually even in terms of this style, I don't follow techno too much as it is, but this was different for sure). It's a little overwhelming at times (I heard somewhere that snares tire people out and this stuff is chock full of it) but I can see myself listening to it once in a while.

Edit: I think I liked second mix more too, I guess it was more melodic, or just sounds more familiar, or maybe it's how you said - it's more energetic, but definitely great stuff, man!

Thank you man. I'm glad to read that kind of detailed critics.

Well you know I play a lot of tribalistic/latin techno so snares and drums in general are very, very usefull in that kind of style. I admit that sometimes it's not even pure techno as purists might say!

Definitely. I still wanna play a lot of great funky tribalistic stuff, but I also need to insist on the darkest and roughest techno tracks. Melody is not a term that I use when I mix or listen to techno, 'cause for me it's all about rythm. Even if a pad or a bass is an essential tool for rythm.

but definitely great stuff, man!

Well, thank you very much!

That's really cool, you know, I am usually a huge fan of drums and percussion in general too, I'll start paying more attention to it in techno. I guess being used to slower genres I haven't yet a ear for techno rhythms (though I've always listened to it here and there throughout the years, but I'd love to be able to incorporate good sounding stuff in my mixes too, it's definitely got some very raw energy, I am digging that). I am looking forward to more of your stuff. cheers.

Hi everyone !
Here is a new mix. Still strong, it has a more tech house feeling than the previous mixes, and it also has new stuff combined to old music that I still play :



Hope you'll enjoy !
