I notice that sometimes when I am fiddling around with my turntables that a tune I mix in does not always sound great when mixed with the tune already playing. What are some tunes you guys know of that you have tried and tested that you think mix well together and produce a smooth transition in a set, keeping the flow of a set? Any posts are greatly appreciated

What record did you loose your virginity to?
"I don't like having sex with music on- I find it distracting. And if it's a mix cd- forget it. I'm stopping to check the beat mixing in between tracks." - Tom Stephan
you'll buck it, every genious needs some time to find a new route in anything they do. maybe you should check out something from a different genre like going breaks or elctro or something more tech for the mix.
experiement and record.

Join My Chant. new mix. april 09. dirty fuck house.

Mixing in key is great, but only if the track you're mixing into also happens to be a great track like the last. I'd rather hear an out of key mix between two great tunes that go well one after the other than hear a perfect in key mix to a boring track.
And you can't keep doing the same mix between records- it'll get boring for you, and it's also better if you can pull off a more challenging mix with two unlikelys, like if your mixing out of someone else's record.
...but, if your gonna mix in key, go for it! Pull a 2 minute mix instead of a 10 second mix and the tracks will blend in so much better. Most of the beginnings of house records are empty anyway, so use that beat and mix it.
tough question. most tracks will flow well into each other if you know how to mix correctly. e.g. which part of the track flows unless they are just so different the feel isn't there.

any tunes mix well together...it all a matter of making sound good...maybe u should consider ur skill instead of ur tunes :P
Felix da housecat - Ready 2 wear(Paperfaces remix) the mix in Studio B - I see girls(Tom Neville remix).
It's usually trial and error in mixing to find out what goes well together for me. However, as my mixing has improved, it's easier to put songs that go well together.

Crashe any two random records together and talk over the top of them. Perfect mix everytime!
Now that you said it I had a flash back to all the radio 1 sets I used to listen too and think about it really hard, it is so true.
The sailors of the United States Navy are among the most disciplined, devoted, and well-trained fighting men the world has ever known. They drink gasoline and piss fire, The spit bullets and shit bombs, and will swim across the ocean with a knife in their teeth just for the chance to carve up those that threaten their homeland.
I say let it flow, after a while you'll instinctively cue records that are relative key-wise almost unconsciously.
I used to focus a lot on keys and it fucked up the flow, it seemed a bit unnatural. The best way to incorporate keys into your mixing is to know your records inside out: the key matching will come automatically afterwards, at least enough of it so your key clashes are not too cacophonic. :-D
Hmm, mixing in keys huh. I wish I knew how to key my tunes, since I don't have a piano or guitar to do so.
there has been a web site posted on here before, I wish I could remember what it is, hopefully someone else will remember. but it had a huge data base of choons and the key they are in.
