i have to be honnest - teh 1st half of ur cd was baoring as fuk

 

but by the time 'how i feel' kicked in u seemed to got into the swing of things. sadly this only lasted about 3 tracks b4 teh bloody cd packed in.

 

if possible could u send me a new cd as teh last 1 had major damages to it in transit (or u could upload a 128bmps+ mp3 and i'll do me own cd?)

 

I appreciate any comments, good or bad, its nice to know ppls thoughts which ever way they are!

 

I have read all the way through and have to agree 'boring as fuk' isnt exactly the best way to have described it as you didnt give the reasons why but, you did clear that up later on by saying the tracks just didnt grab you which is a fair shout!

 

Since the last hardhouse mix i did the tunes have been few and far between and i dont really like to use the same tunes as the last cd, or many old tunes, hence why it may have seemed the way it did.

 

I also realise that i wont be able to please everyones tastes and some ppl may not like the mix as much as others, but that is the story for any dj whether playing in a club or mixing a cd.

 

I am certainly not offended by the comments and they will be noted for the future. As chris said, you send the mixes out to get any form of feedback as long as it is constructive and explained in a way that you can take something away from it.

 

I can send you out another cd no problem but maybe it would be best if i just did from 'how i feel' onwards wink.gif

Phil I think the cd is fab, your mixing is spot on as usual & the tunage is ace IMO!! Keep it coming hon & like you say you cant please everyone all of the time!!

 

 

Laurence, maybe hon, you wanna think your words out before typing, possitive or negative critismn is great for the dj as it helps to see where they are going wrong etc, but words such as *boring as [censored]* is a bit harsh, maybe saying it wasnt your cup of tea is slightly better my love!!!

grin.gif The cds will keep coming, no worries there!

 

I do find that the hardhouse mixes I do aren't how I would really like them to sound, but it all comes down to the tunes I can get my hands on. Rather than put out cds that are of the same style its good to get a hardhouse mix done every now and again......even if it isn't to everyones tastes!

my advice mate is to get a cd deck, then spend a few days downloading as much as you can from www.generoproject.com

 

That will give you shitloads of stuff that not many people will be playing out and it will help make your cds stand out a little bit!

 

I would much rather hear an amazing set of tunes mixed horrendously bad, then lots of tracks everyone has already mixed incredibly well (its why i dont buy hh compilation cds lol) - looking at your traacklistings, you obviously know how to progress a set so your halfway there imo!

laugh.gif its just getting hold of hardhouse that I struggle with, thats why the cds are full of the standard tunes everyone has, its not the main style that I play now-a-days but I like to keep my hand in it where possible!

 

The cdj will be purchased in the next couple of weeks as its now payed for with me working the last couple of nights!
