Ever purposely post a mix with a few minor mistakes?

I posted a mix on soundcloud recently with similar type errors. I went ahead commented on my mistakes in advance. It kept the flaming down and let people know I heard it, but still felt it was worth sharing.

I agree with D-Jam! Few days ago a producer-DJ told me that he records his sets (the ones he uploads to places like Soundcloud etc. etc.) by layering the tracks in Ableton Live and doing automation edits to make the mix. Surely they will sound perfect in timing, but I was disgusted at the idea that no actual performance-DJing is involved in this process.

One or two erros in the mix, reminds the listener that what he listens to is an actual mix and not some result after hour of editing with a freaking automation draw pencil in your software.

I actually only put things that are not perfect on soundcloud and youtube… most of it to demo what went wrong and some of it even not played by me, but one of my students and some of it just experiments.

Yes, anyone with a brain could make perfect mixes using Ableton Live , however such mixes, unless they are spiced with tons of creativity, sound very sterile. Better do a more human mix with small imperfections, similar to Japaneese art.

I did not know you could re-edit mixes until quite recently. As such, i have never re-edited any of my mixes and i do not intend to start. Unfortunately for me, i spin genres that tend to have the ‘drift’.My mixing style has had to find a way to adapt to the kind of music i play.
To answer your question: Yes, i have posted ‘imperfect’ mixes before. I have a place where i use as a testing ground for those kind of mixes. The most amazing thing is that i still get positive feedbacks regardless. It is only human to be imperfect.
Some songs that had mistakes that were left in have been known to become hits later on

Is it live or is it Ableton (who remembers the Memorex ad? lol) I always do live mixes I stream live, record and post them mistakes and all. Listening back makes me aware of things I may not have realised during the mix.
