    Default Mixing Vs. Listening

    What makes you all want to mix vs. just listen to music, through like iTunes?

    Listening is passive. Mixing is active/interactive - I love interacting with my music, and creating new stuff from existing stuff.

    I like to contribute to things... listening is great and I do hours of it but when you are mixing you are actually adding to the art instead of just admiring it.

    Every mix everyone does is unique wether it is a bad mix or a fantastic mix. So the thought of being able to do something difference and unique everytime i step behind decks just makes me want to do it more. I love the interaction with vinyl and a mixer and i love getting crowd responses or even just mixing to relax my mood before bed..

    I listen to music to relax and enjoy while doing other things..
