Famous Dj’s Mixing Radio Shows… Mix Transitions

I’ve been listening to ASOT w/AVB, Club Life /Tiesto, Fire It Up w/Eddie H. and I’ve come to realize something quite funny. They all use these bigroom vocal drops and callouts, and also talking, to cover up all the mix transitions… Now I’ve seen all of them live and i know they don’t do that, they do very long mix transitions, but on the shows they literally just cut a track in with a crazy “Boom Sound” and a vocal drop. Its kinda funny.

Radio shows are just promo’s for the tunes. They want the tunes playing by themselves for a long time. It’s not really about mixing.

most podcast are track showcases rather than mixes and most of them aren’t mixed live.

ahhh that makes sense, i guess they cater to fans. not us. :wink:

The format I prefer is 2 hours.

50 minutes playing tunes, talking about them, blah blah blah
10 minute guest interview
30 minute guest mix
30 minute host mix or b2b with guest

1hr track showcase 1hr guest or studio or live mix is where its at

I thought ASOT was one hour new track 1 hour in the mix. Mind you I haven’t listened to ASOT since like 2002 2003 markus Schulz had some stellar broadcasts back then also.

global trance grooves and rush hour are proper mixes, just the odd talkover.

Oh yeah rush hour is the freakin bomb, Christopher Lawrence is the man

Agreed, saw him recently locally at a very intimate venue and he put on an amazing show. Was great to be able to watch him mix practically face to face for over an hour!

I’ve never come across this before!! Just subscribed. Nice one!!
