Out of all those who post mixes here, how many of you actually listen to mixes here?

Just as the title says, I’m curious to find out how many people actually listen to mixes here instead of just posting them?

I myself usually don’t, because most of the tracklistings don’t seem that inspiring, but every once in awhile some one will catch my interest for some reason and it usually is a good listen.

So yeah, do you just post mixes here, or do you actually take a moment to see what else is here as well?

Its funny you post this because I was thinking the same thing. People post mixes all the but never get comments. I personally dont listen to mixes.

3

If I see a track listing that I like or a post by someone I consider good or with similar tastes, I’ll listen.

I don’t comment very often if I do listen though

4

I usually listen to any mixes that get my attention.

As an absolute MINIMUM, there has to be a track listing. A short paragraph describing the mix helps a lot. A cover good cover image goes a long way.

To those guys that post but don’t listen - do you really expect people to listen to your mix if you don’t listen to any?

Apparently there’ still hope for this place

6

Catchy title, you have my interest
Full Tracklisting and embedded player, almost there :wink:

No tracklisting or indication of genre or style at all … next.

I have my SC link in my sig, but then so does everybody. I agree with the above comments, the more info the better. If I’m in a mix-hunting mood I’ll often take a gamble on something random. Need to be able to download though. I do all my listening in the car so don’t stream anything.

I’ll also take this opportunity to (shamelessly) post a mix, adhering to said criteria :slight_smile:
In all serious though, any feedback is most welcome and I’m willing to respond in kind. Its a year old but in my opinion pretty timeless.

Forty Degree Day

“Nobody got nothing to say about a forty degree day. Fifty? Fifty bring a smile to your face. Sixty? Shit, you damn near barbecuing on that motherfucker. Go down to twenty, people get their bitch on. Get their blood complaining, but forty? Nobody give a fuck about forty. Nobody remember forty, and y’all giving me way too many forty degree days…”

Don’t post, don’t listen.

Seems kind of pointless to me

Same criteria. Haven’t posted any yet but generally i’ll take a look at the track listing and listen to the opener and if it’s inspired i’ll hop on over to soundcloud and give it a proper listen as I do my classwork or cook or something. Some good mixes on here.

10

I would never post up here or any other forum, its not what they are for, I do however upload to mixcloud purely for people who are looking to book me so they can see what they are getting. It’s a lot less hassle on the night if they are getting what they expected…

11

This.
Only problem I get is there aren’t too many mixes of genres I like so… :wink:

12

I usually delete mixes that do not have an embedded player and tracklist. :wink:

13

tracklisting, downloadable, proper length of time…at the very minimum…

14

Vouch, this man makes the effort.

I also do listen to a good amount of them, I occasionally try to offer up some kind of feedback for DJs/producers even though I’m not a pro of any kind… But people like feedback, it’ll give them the drive to do the same for others.
