A mix for you. This is a smooth mostly 'mainstream' trance mix I did last night. [More:]It's airy and happy and accessible. This is a departure from the usually hard and crunchy techno-noise stuff I do that sounds more like the DJ/artist Surgeon - fast and loose and bent out of shape. This mix is the opposite of that, smooth and melodic and mellowish. I did this to prove to a few music peers I know that doing that kind of stuff is easy for me, and that the crunchy-noisy-sloppy "freetechno" type stuff I do is intentional, not purely accidental or haphazard.

This mix was done in Traktor DJ Studio 2.5 without a cue channel. Which means I'm doing all my beat matching and synching and mixing visually off of the waveforms and meters. It would be similar to DJing a set on a PA without any headphones. What you hear in the mix is what I hear while mixing it - there's no monitor channel I'm using or anything.

Share and enjoy.
nice! thanks!

"I am the crowdpleaser"

are those samples or you?

Not "samples" in the "sampled from something else" sense but from the track "Crowdpleaser" by Bangkok Impact. ("Bangkok Impact" is also the guy who does the "8-bit Rockers" tracks that were in my MeCha Mix submission.)
