I decided to make a topic with my mixes in it, for your viewing pleasure.

http://www.soundclic...m?bandID=814376

One thing pissed me off though. I made my account, and all that, and then tried to upload my 10 minute mixes, but OH NO, gay ass soundclick will only let me upload files that are 10MB or smaller, and my TMM are around 11MB. I uploaded a few of my normal length mixes though. I hope you enjoy.


Taking Me Higher
I had DJ Kaos over one night, and me and him were just foolnig around with beats, and lyrics, and all that junk. He showed me that he had the perfect lyrics for a mix, and I showed him a beat I was worknig on, and it kind of went from there.


I Will Believe It
DJ Fritzy sent me a sample beat one night, and I just loved it, so I stayed up all night, picking at it, and adding things, untill I got it all down perfect. This was the end result.

You're My Angel
It seems like all the best Happy Hardcore DJ's have done a remix of this song, so I thought f**k it, I'll do one.

[Saturos S.]

This is actually quite good stuff. Though I'm probably the only one around here who listens to stuff like this. Taking me higher is my favourite of the three you posted

[Fritzy]

Thanks man. Well, if atleast one person likes it, then I'm happy. The night we did Taking Me Higher was fun. By the end of the night, we were piss drunk :P. The switch in tempo at 2:20 though didn't sound as good as it could have though.

audio what-now?or do you mean stuffing it into a .zip file, this compression doo-hickey cud be usefull for taking music into work on my memory stick (no iPods allowed =/)Cant say im that into happy hardcore, but take me highers gotta phat drop.

[Fritzy]

I guess the consensis(sp) is that Take Me Higher is the best.

Bommerang, what genre of Techno are you into, if any? I might throw a mix in of the kind you link.

[Boomerang]

UK Garage
Drum N Bass
Hard House
Electro House
Breakbeat
Jackin' House
Bashment & Dancehall

lol wide and varied variety. Only just started mixing, i have a vision of mixing in comedy punchlines (old old vinyl) in with post drop silences. like in slam or somethin, bout halfway through when it goes all quiet and builds up to the drop have a lil 5-7 sec clip. myte turn out ****, i need to test it out still :P

[Fritzy]

Hard House you say. Hmm, that could turn out interesting.

What's your setup atm?

[Boomerang]

Gemini Hybrids atm, real nice for a 1st set :P
speakers i have literally NO idea lol, their big but my foacing 2nd needle broke!!? i was trying to learn how to scratch, and apparently i ****ed it, broke my crystal waters vinyl aswell.

u mixin CD's or vinyl bro?

[Fritzy]

I have 2 CD decks, and 2 Turntables for vinyl. They both have their uses.

I would STRONGLY recomend a Pioneer mixer though. The one I had was used, and it was 6 years old, and lasted me another 4 years. The one I just bought is even better and should last even longer.

Pioneer is definetly the way to go.

Scratching can be a BIG pain if you don't know what you are doing. I will send you some of my 10 minute mixes tomorow, which have some hard scratching techniques.

[Boomerang]

sweet!!! that wud be sweet, so far all i got is wait for the 1st vinyl to drop and move the 2nd around till the scratchin sound is good enough to slide the slidy thingi. second i get enough money from job im gettin an apple laptop aswell, no internet nothing just music editing software.2bf im still a massaive nub wit decks but im gettin better fast... its so funhow muhc would pioneer CD's cost, and can i use my effects pad with them?wait i just reead, pioneer mixer not turntables. 2 late lol

[Mallick]

If I ever have children, and die leaving them parentless, I want your music to father them.

Audio compression isn't zip files, it's the file itself. Different file formats have different compression ratios, it depends on how much you want to trade off between quality and filesize.

[Laharl]

FLAC Loseless is best format for audio quality, wma is probably best for a small file size

Nope. They make mixer's, effects pad's, and CD decks though.

They are expensive as HELL though, but if you are really passionate about going on with it, I'd recomend atleast the Pioneer mixer. It has the BPM right on there for 2 songs which you can set, which will make transitioning to another song MUCH easier.

But ya, I have the 2 Turntables(Stanton) and the 2 CD decks. Don't move to CD decks untill you get good with the Turntables, because I made that mistake, and didn't even use them for like a year.

Also, a good beginer program for maknig melodys is http://www.fruityloops.com. I used that for a good year, and it is a great program. You can recreate melodys that your favourite DJ's might have used before, and though it migh not soudn as good as more high end programs, it will sound amazing. It is quite expensive however. I don't think you'll find any cheap melody making programs that are actually worth using.


Oh, and to answer your earlier question, 2 Pioneer CDJ-800MK2's, the ones I have, will set you back around 1500$ Canadian. No idea what that is in pounds. I would still recomend buying them though, because they will last you forever.

[Folcon]

Those mixes are pretty good, you got skills man.

[Fritzy]

Thanks man. Me nad Steven are doing a mix as we speak.

[Drizzy Drake]

Do I mix, ya. Do I really play at raves, ha, I wish.

[Drizzy Drake]

Wings Of Love(Dreamz And Kaos Mix)
A mix me and Steven did last night. Oh my, I hate this mix. :(. From about 1:00, to 1:20, I sped it up WAYYYY too much. I was peaking, and I was just basically going nuts with everything. It turned out kind of ****ty. Oh well.

[Eugine]

The best thing about the internet:
You can be whatever you want to be!

Anywayz, yeah, I like Taking Me Higher.

[Drizzy Drake]

That's nice. It's there, whether you believe me or not.

~2000~

Cool.

[Eugine]

So, did you actually do those? Eh Fritzy? lmao

[Drizzy Drake]

:(

Oui. I don't play at raves though.

[Drizzy Drake]

So close to finishing the Everytime We Touch(House&Happy Hardcore Remix).
