exactly
if you skip fwd you lose the flow, thats the whole point of a mix imo

this is exactly why i dont "track" my mixes when i put them on cd

I must listen from start to finish uninterupted. It's a story afterall!

If I don't like the track a DJ is playing in a club then I knock myself unconscious for 5 minutes and hope that the music is better when I come round again.

if there are too many of those in a row, just start poppin some roofies and go with the flow.

-edit

and btw, listening to the whole set > skipping through anyday

"How do all of you listen to a set from start to finish?"

Exactly how you asked the question....From start to finish....

I go end to end as well, but if the set has not done something to at least make me a little interested in the first 1/3 of the set, I'll usually scrap the rest of it.

if the first couple tunes are well selected and well mixed, I usually decide to the give the set a full listen when time permits...

...if the reviews were overwhelmingly positive on MS I'll listen to some of it before burning it to cd and keeping it my car.

exactly. I tried listening to nick warren's christmas set and stopped at the 40 minute mark. too much boring minimal.

Speedy where exactly did u hear minimal in this set? I understand people coming to the conclusion that a set isn't your style but it's a journey we are taken on and if you're skipping through it you're losing part of the experience. imo of course I don't feel every track in a set but those tracks usually lead into something much bigger and better I think.

speedy sounds like a glowstick waving tiesto kandy kid.

The Xmas track started with a nice chuggy groovy feel leading to some percussion at the 15 min mark and then some nice spacey melody at the 16 min mark and maybe the 26 min mark it began to get a bit sparser and deeper.

You're listening to the wrong set or your ears are fucked.

Headphones at work, sit down, press play. Pause when some fuckwit needs something.
