Very nice mix, loved every minute of it, such a deep and meditative vibe. Track selection is incredible I liked that there was a variety of deep tunes and soulful stuff. I also like your subtle FX usage, it’s tasteful and non-invasive. Great stuff, man. Cheers.

I listened to your mix on my laptop speakers while on vacation, then on my headphones while bus-and-skating to work, then while playing a skateboard trading card game with my gf. Really. This is my opinion, though some of her feedback is also included.

  • I enjoyed your track selection. My GF did not enjoy a few of the vocal tracks, especially “Beautiful Business”. I felt there was a pretty good mix of vocal and instrumental tracks, though I think the vocals frequency is bias a bit towards the end of the mix. I felt that the vocals didn’t really establish a consistent theme, sorta “just a bunch of vocals”. But I thought your track selection and taste level was really good, you play the kind of deep stuff that I can get into. What’s the track with the “she’s the kind of girl you wanna marry” (90s r&b?) sample?

  • Levels were good throughout. Phasing was good, I presume mix was done with sync or equivalent. Phrasing sounded good but there were some cases where you seemed to mix slightly in the middle of a longer phrase and/or seemed to mix quickly. I definitely prefer this style mixed with lots of EQ and with longer mixes. But I did hear a few times where you used EQ, I think, and the mix sounded good from that perspective. I am really nitpicking at this point, I don’t think anyone who wasn’t a DJ of this style of music would really notice. :smiley:

  • I’ll be keeping this mix in my DJTT keepers directory. It is suitable to play while working, chilling, etc.

Thanks for posting, and keep at it! :smiley:

Hey awesomer and thank you very much for your comments!!!
Some quick notes:
1.The track you are looking for is: Demarzo - Untouchable (Amine Edge & Dance Remix)
2.I’ve completely abandoned the SYNC function for about 2 months or so. Practice, practice and practice some more made my ear work completely with SYNC function :wink:
3.As far as mixing is concerned, i think is totally a subjective matter. I see your point, but that’s the way i like to make my mixes.
4.Keep in touch cause my next Deep & Groovy Mix is coming really soon :wink:

Thanks again!
