My performance starts at 12:24 :)
The guy filming it cut the judges comments out but the mrs recorded it too so I'll post that one up when I get back from BPM tomorrow! Thank you guys SO much for helping to give me this opportunity :)
God, 5 mins. Not long is it. I really like the military drums bit.
The first guy.... well, words fail me. Second guy. Was he scratching with his head at one point? :blink:
Yes ahahaa.Quote:

The last guy to play was the only one to have his actual MIXING criticised, but - like me - he didn't have anything prepared for the final and just threw something together last minute, so its understandable.
They pulled me up on not really looking at the crowd and staying quite "isolated" on the stage, in my own little world kinda thing haha, which is a fair point and something I know I do anyway.
The first guy with the WeGo won it? I'll be the first to admit I'm not the best DJ out there, but I was mortified at his first mix?
From I Need a Dollar to Dirty Stinkin' Bass?
Am I wrong?
No. He was absolutely appalling.Quote:

Second guy had some technical skills, but just too much button hammering, and again un-musical mashing. I liked how he did the chicken dance by turning pots with both hands at the beginning tho.
I'm watching the second guy now, loves to backspin out into the next tune.Quote:
