Drum and Bass Train round 2 (or 3 dunno)

Drum and Bass Train round 2 (or 3 dunno)

Hey all, I think it’s about time for another DnB mixtrain… I’m gonna say that 8 members at 20 minutes a piece is too long and so difficult to get completed, I’m gonna say we should go with 6 people at around 25 minutes or so, hit this post up if you are interested…

I’d like to say we could have this done within 2 months with everyone getting a week or so to complete their mix. I’d hope we could get someone involved that has experience mastering mixes as I am clueless when it comes to those sort of things…

i’d be down.

im in!

Right on, well we have flash, dutty electric and myself…room for 3 more. any preferences on who goes where?

And not to sound like a dick but playing a bunch of tracks by people like Raiden probably isn’t a good idea for the guys going first…just sayin

cough… yep.

P.S. I wonder if Tekki’s ever gonna do that last part of the first train?

Ok so now we have Citizen Insane, so we have room for 2 more…maybe YoshiExcel? anyone else spin DnB around here, I haven’t seen Tekki in a while

Count me in id love to be 2nd or 3rd.

alright, we now just need one more participant…

Anyone else want in? otherwise I say we get this train going…

I say we just start it, i think this is enough people. If youd like, i could master the mix after its completed. Ive gotten a bit more experience in that department now. But i think we should all do our best to record our mixes at good sound levels.

Okay, well I guess we should just figure out who is going where, Yoshi wants to go second or third so I guess that’s kinda his spot, I’ll go first if nobody else wants to, but I’d sure rather not be the guy that goes first…

Part 1?

I ended up running a little long, and I switched to some more liquidy sounds for the last 10 minutes or so of the mix, I think that Yoshi plays more liquid stuff… lemme know if this will work for everyone…

Tracklist -

Loxy & Mortem - Epilogue - Absys Records
Razorpoint - Elevated - Absys Records
Naibu - Back Engineering - Avalanche Recordings
Radicall - Lunar Sea - Absys Records
Little Jinder - Without You (Seba Remix) - Trouble and Bass

its 12:30 am, kinda drunk… but lets see what i can do lol… :smiley:

It’s 2:30 am and I’m tipsy, but I play neurofunk, techstep, minimal and such normally so maybe I should wait until Flash has done his part and taken things into darker territory for me… or I could just go really really dub/reggae and drop a lot of stuff along the lines of the Voodoo label or Morphy, Genotype, Raiden, OrtoKore and such. :smiley::eek::sunglasses:

For reference just look up the I Dubbed The Sheriff EP by Morphy, quality chill tunes.

The structure’s looking good so far. Liquid first, neuro & tech later, the way it should be. @Mike, that mix so far is looking spot on, the little jinder seba remix is a fucking hot track! Wicked TL.

The last dnb train got a bit messy to be fair, although it was a shame tekki never bothered to finish it.

Im easy where I go in the train, but I’d like to smash out some heavier, darker beats on a 3 deck mix. If you guys dont mind, I’m before citizen, after Yoshi.

Another Idea?

So I took a few minutes (and still went 1 minute more than I should have :disappointed: ) too long on the last try, decided to somewhat change the style of the mix and go in a deeper liquid style building in energy… anyway whatever Yoshi feels like going off is fine with me

Tracklist

Twisted Facts - Crystalline - Soul Deep
MSDOS - Debacle - Liquid Drumz
Naibu - Back Engineering - Avalanche
Broken Eye - Feeling the Music - Respect
Sobersoul - Spring Race - Respect
Sardi - There For You - Liquid Brilliants
Super Deejay Bobzilla - Heavy Duty Booty (Human Factor Remix) - Mutate Records I picked this up off chance that because the name of the producer and the name of the track were shit hot the tune must be good, turns out it was :smiley:
Makoto & Greg Packer - Found Your Love - Human Elements
Foxrox - Can’t Live Without You - Audio Danger Records Kinda screwed the mix up a bit here, it’s what I get for not using sync

Anyway lemme know what you all think if the other one isn’t too long (which it shouldn’t be, I’ve got plenty of room on my soundcloud to host it) go ahead with the other one, if time is a premium I’d say use this one

Alright, I did my part and uploading to Soundcloud now for whoever is next to download. I went ahead and used your first mix Bigheadmike, kinda fit the style i was going to mix much better.

I did notice the volume levels were a bit low, so i just mixed at those levels as well and everyone else should just follow, we can fix that up after we have it all complete. try to get it as close as possible that way the mastering at the end isnt such a pain… Im a bit out of it right now so if you catch something i screwed up in or whatever just let me know and ill try and fix it.

3 days and 2 mixes complete, so is duttyelectric going next or is Flash going then Citizen and the Dutty to close the deal out…

Also you know what would be the f’n note?

If we could get this done by the end of next weekend…I think it’s a very real possibility (and we could spout off some sort of bs around the forum about how DnB heads are far better :wink: )

…but who am I kidding you guys are probably going to take the entire week and get every little tweak of the knobs sorted before you throw it down, which I guess I need to start teaching myself to do…I still just sit down and play some tunes…

But everyone should try to get this whole deal hammered out quick

@Bigheadmike, that’d be awesome. and i do believe we (the dnb heads) are better lol. I remember being a part of a Progressive Trance train a while back and noone seemed to get their shit together so i just quit it… Ive had the best luck here with the dnb guys.

btw, Id really love to get a heavy/dark dnb train going soon too!
