Mix Challenge

[zorori]

What the forum think about having a dj techtools mix challenge I think it would be fun if each week/month we choose 2 or 3 dj with 5 to 10 imposed track to mix and each dj explain their methods and the tools they use and the best mix be put on the blog ?

bijoubreaks.com did something similar - but anyone could enter. over the space of a month everyone debated the tracks to use and when 7 (i think) had be chosen the comp launched, it was a 30 min mini mix thing and you could use any combination of the 7 with a minimum of 5. (or something like that, couple of years ago now, can't properly remember)

however, as there are so many ppl mixing so many different styles, that would be harder to implement here. at least on BB everyone mixed breaks, made things easier

How was the result at bijoubreaks ?

some good stuff came out of it. as it was all the same tracks it was more about the mixing, and showed some big differences in how ppl approached it

We could take a kind of spin on that and say

List 10 tracks. 5 of them MUST be used in your mix in some way, shape, or form, and your mix must be 30 minutes long. You can do whatever you want to the songs, but we must notice and recognize them.

@ brad
I think that's the great thing exposing people different sensibilities and approach to djing

i like the idea. each monthly contest could be of a different genre.
