    Nice. Looks like you know your way around your controller. The second track should’ve had more volume. More vocal tracks?

    Cool mix. you’ve really nailed the effects on your controller well. Critique-wise, one thing you should work on is the timing of beatmatching transitions in relevance to song structure. I find it important (especially in house music) to beat match for 8, 16, or 32 bars depending on the structure of the specific song. In my experience, commercial house music typically runs in intervals of 16 bars (64 beats), so dropping 1-beat of the incoming track on the 1-beat of the track your fading out of, will produce a better timed beatmatch. By the way how did you upload a video to youtube thats more then 15 minutes long?

    First of: great selection of music and some sweet fx. That part is solid.
    Something to think of is that your soundlevels get a wee bit low when you mix from one song to the other. Let them ride together for a while longer. That way they add more to the mix. If one song has too short of an intro then loop it and bring it in at a low level, work it in.

    You really got something going. Just try to keep the levels up a bit. Big like on the outdoors setup, btw what gear is that?

    Thanks really not that hard to work. I started out on the mixtrack just making countless mixes spending countless hours on that thing. Really once I picked up the scs.4dj the controls where not that different besides the display screen.

    I have heard this before, its really hard to count when epic electronic music is blasting at you and your just having a good time, and I think you go to like upload look for something that says become eligible to upload videos longer than 15 minutes, and they send something to your phone that you have to verify.

    Thanks man I will try my best to keep a good ear out next time. My outdoor setup isn’t really my permanent one I just moved the shit from my bedroom outside because it was nice outside. My setup is Scs.4DJ, Numark Redwaves, and a set of KRK Rokit 6’s (which I won in a mix contest :D)

    Happens to me a lot so when I put on a track I know I just love I instantly load the other deck.
