**Who wants to mix a bunch of tracks for me?**

If I were to upload a zip with 20-30 tunes in it, would anyone be interested in mixing them for me?

Reason being that I’m currently controller-less, I need a new mix to listen to whilst jogging and listening to someone elses mix of my favourite tunes would be cool to listen to (gets boring listening to your own mixes sometimes).

The tunes would be a mix of electro, progressive, nu-breaks, techno, house, etc - basically a real mishmash of different genres so you’d need to be good at blending different styles together well.

Anyone up for it? If so, post a soundcloud/mixcloud mix so I can hear your mixing style 🙂

I’d do it also it would be interesting to see what everyone does with the same tracks. Wow I wonder what would happen if you say took the top 10 DJs in the world (who they are don’t really matter for this) and give them each 30-50 tracks and said create a mix with using at least 30 seconds of each track and no other tracks/samples. How long they play each track and what FX/Tricks they use is up to them. Imagine how different each one would be.

Been meaning to pull my finger out and get another mix done - might be fun to try a different perspective with someone else’s choons. Soundcloud

We talked about doing this on the Global-Techno mailing list back in like 2001! Unfortunately at that time it would have been prohibitively expensive.

Ten years later, it seems like it’d be.. trivial. If someone started a DJTT “battle” based on this concept, where every participant picks a track or something, I’d participate…

the trouble is copyright though… unless the tracks are ‘free’ it’d be tricky to just upload a zip file of tunes and share it out with everyone.

I’m asking just 1 dj to do this privately for me, as a mix that only I will listen to. Said dj should obviously delete the mp3s once they’ve finished the mix for me.

@Milo I have thought about that at great length and unfortunately I don’t have a good way to make all the mixes “legit”. Unless we pooled from a collection of tracks that everyone already had or had more than one of us at the same place. I understand copyright law doesn’t allow this I just think they should.

I’m not saying anyone should be able to share MP3’s or to try to do what I propose. I wish that technology existed where I could send out 30 MP3’s and they could be used for say 7 days and then they would “self-destruct”. They would not be able to be duplicated or transferred off of wherever they were downloaded to. I’m sure we’ll have something like that someday but until then to achieve what I propose would include muddying up the project ethical and legal questions.

If you’re ever in the mood for some Drum & Bass, let me know. I’m even liable to have a few of the tunes you request lol.

There are quite a few blogsites out there that release free and legal downloads of tracks (i.e. rcrd lbl, flavorwire etc) but it’d be tricky to find a large selection from there that would work well in a mix… still a legal alternative though!
