ParticipantActually ScottoRobotto, the logo idea is excellent!!
Makes me have second thoughts now. Actually I think I would like something with PC in it, but thinking if there is a way to do without having DJ in it considering I find names with DJ in it too old fashioned.

ParticipantCheers Enrique. I followed you on Mixcloud (you’re not following me atm lol, follow me back!) and Twitter. My other social network details are now on my profile if you wanna add/follow me on these!
And cheers Kritical Sound! When you say flow and to learn before mixing, is that so the mixes are done better or the songs sound more similar or sticking to one genre or…? I always have been looking at intros and outros to see what of those work, or maybe not learning them thoroughly enough lol. Cheers for the advice anyway 🙂 Maybe putting different types of house on one mixtape ain’t the best idea lol.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantCheers for the suggestions. I do still prefer not to have ‘DJ’ in the name though aha, just seems to be a bit old fashioned imo. It does have a good punch though I agree.
Also when I do decide on my DJ name (which atm, looks like it might be Pete Klark), should I start making Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Soundcloud, Mixcloud etc pages under my DJ name when I’m decided on the name? Or should I wait until I have had more experience of DJing considering I am only a beginner really, even though I have made one mixtape already?
Peter Clarke
ParticipantEy good suggestions!! Thank you, I’ll consider which one.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantWell in the UK (where I’m from), there’s loads of Peter Clarke’s anyway lol.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantDoes it lol? There’s so many Peter Clarke’s in the world, including another person in my family and a footballer. People like Eric Prydz have a unique name, I don’t.

ParticipantOh crap, DJ PeeJay are taken.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantLol, my housemate jokingly suggested DJ BJ. Cheers housemate!
I do love the spelling for PeeJay though! Could maybe consider having just PeeJay.
Would be nice to be Pete something though.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantSorry just wanna see if it automatically comes up this time and it does 🙂 Also on Soundcloud.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantSorry for the late reply. Anyway, I have made my first mixtape!! Which I have posted on the mixtape/podcast/show thread thing.
Have uploaded it onto Soundcloud and Mixcloud.

It is my first mixtape. Are a 2/3 mixes I feel like I could have done better after listening back.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantThanks for that advice!! You say that DJs listen to 20 times as much music than normal listeners? Is that songs itself or how much we listen or both. Sorry, such ridiculous questions aha!!
Peter Clarke
ParticipantAh just saw your post Jarrod. Yeah I have Soundcloud and following loads of artists (Duke Dumont, Hannah Wants, Sigma, and so much more). Does anyone know any good Soundcloud accounts for free legal downloads or an easier way to find free downloads?
I have noticed the quality situation with converters. I have listened to versions of one track converted by two converters, one did seem better than the other one, a lot of bass in the better one though). So yeah.
Peter Clarke
ParticipantAh okay. It’s definitely good to be careful in what you choose. Thing is though I would rather be very up to date with my collections (though the odd old track is fine), enough to do a mix tape/podcast with all (or mostly) new tracks (at least 15). Suppose maybe my limit would have to be £15 a month. Though having them sold on iTunes isn’t exactly up to date for me. An up to date song in my eyes is a song that is being played a lot on the radio, very up to date is a song being played on the radio for the first time (e.g. Special Delivery on Annie Mac, BBC Radio 1, who I am a massive, massive fan of). Most of the time, those very up to date songs are not on iTunes; can be on Beatport sometimes although more expensive.
I’m no good at finding free music lol. Where can you find free and legal music? If it’s Soundcloud, is there an easier way of finding songs with free download links? The only place I know for free music is Free Music Monday by Annie Mac lol.
What do you mean by 1 in = 1 out mode btw lol. It would take me too long to reach 1000 tracks lol, that would take me like 5-6 years if my money doesn’t get better when order lol, meaning most tracks would become old lol.
Did I say lol too much? :/
