Re: Miketpoto's birthday week is here, Ableton Mix Listen up!
mike,
you got a point there, my reaction was short and to the point....and therefor it could be concieved as a negative
to give you o more detailed (I'm serious here) picture of the mix:
It's a solid one (a didn't mention that my first reaction because i thought (based on the level of it) that you could define that for yourself
but being solid means...that it doesn't stand out from other mixes
by taking more risk....either on mixing techniqeus that you use....or using tracks that give you a own (diiferent from others) sound, your mix(es) would make more inpact imo.
when I dj, I always use the soundbite loop module. It makes perfect loops.
and when a loop is running....you can throw it in the mix any time you want.
It's als relatively easy to have 3 channels open on your mixer (2 decks and the loop).....and as you could guess...you can create mixes that stand out from the standard record after record mixes. In ableton you can do very much the same trick...bringing loops or parts of records back in the mix when you do not expect it.
but, you can only develope yor own style, if you like it this way then it's your choice (and seen by the positive reactions you get) a lot of people like it.
I gave you my opinion, you can use my advise or throw it away.....ok
happy birtday by the way
