I’d be interested, though my time is extremely limited so I’d like to go first if possible

Ok if we get some more people interested we will see what we can do.

Dunno exactly what these mix trains are, but sounds interesting if i find out what exactly it is. =\

What is a Mix Train?

A Mix Train is a recorded mix or ā€œmix tapeā€ that is created by multiple DJs who each record part of the set.

How are Mix Trains organized?

A Classic Mix Train will be comprised of 6 slots with each slot lasting around 10 minutes. There are other types of the trains with different numbers of slots and durations. Once all the slots are filled the train begins. In some cases DJs can request a particular slot, in other cases slots are simply assigned by the Administrators.

More info can be found here. FAQ | The Mix Train

I’m also new to all this, if we get it off the ground it will be my first mix train also.

I am quite interested in this. Is it alright me to take part, although I am still fairly new and learning; I see this as a great way to learn more. Please let me know.

Of course, as soon as we get a few more people involved we will get this train started.
What sort of drum and bass you all thinking of throwing into the mix?

There will definitely be some High Contrast :smiley:

Ok, im up for doing this. :sunglasses:

Btw, what style of dnb we lookin at here? liquid, heavy?

Personally I’m not bothered, we need a few more people to get it off the ground when we have all participants we can have a vote on style if need be.

Ok so far then i guess we have

1.bigheadmikelove
2.Myself
3.YoshiExcel
4.Mav

I guess this could be enough 30mins each, what do you say people?

Im cool with that…Is it cool if I’m in one of the middle slots?

id say make it between 60-80 minutes. 60 would be best tho. 15 min each.

I’d be more for between 15 and 20 minutes…as far as style, why do we have to have a specific style for the mix. Why not just play what you want…

Ok 15 minutes each it is then, and there is no style, just DnB of your choice for your part of the mix. Mav if YoshiExcel does not mind swapping then no problem if he does then it will stay as it is.

I don’t mind going last. I would actually prefer doing the ending =) Let’s do this!

1.bigheadmikelove
2.MLT
3.Mav
4.YoshiExcel

Lets say each DJ has 2 weeks to complete there mix? Is this enough time for everyone?

Sick, Thanks Yoshi

Ok so we will just wait for bigheadmikelove to get back to us and we will get this started.

I’m definitely in for this. Let us know the rules etc.

EDIT: Only 4 people? Room for 1 more? :slight_smile:

Also, a suggestion. Someone asked ā€˜what style’ of DnB should be mixed, I think you should just mix whatever you want, as long as it goes into the next mix it’s fine
