various artists: break out now – a selectah j mix: mp3 dl
i have been very hesitant about this.
is this shameless self-promotion? is it?
i was born and raised in a much too calvinist environment to not feel at least slightly guilty about making my own dj-mix album of the month here.
thing is though, i have not bought any music at all this last month and i have not even downloaded many interesting mp3’s [except that great xmas song compilation over at 8bitpeoples, but i guess we all agree that xmas 2003 is soooo over! except for the christian orthodox xmas of course, which will happen january 6th, which is why they never find xmas trees, but thats a whole ‘nother story…]
so anyway… this then would be a different kind of album of the month, and i wont even much babble on about it, i wont…
this was my musical obsession this last month and therefore album of the month.

Turntables or digital?
(I’m listening at work, I bet turntables but if so it’s well mixed.)
=darwin
its actually both. i usually mix each section on turntables, such a section would be any number of tracks that are the same bpm tempo. when i have all these sections i add them together digitally…
Ah, makes sense. Acid 4.0 for the stitching, or Cubase or something?
I recently did a 36 minute mix in Acid 4.0 … lets just say it was a few more tracks then I could mix in turntables in that time..
=darwin
cool. where can i hear that mix?
i actually use motu digital performer, which is a classic sequenzer with out the timestretch abilities like acid, which does not exist for mac. yup mac here. but now they released garageband i am thinking about doing an all digital mix soon…
The mix in question is now online here.
This mix of yours came on my random play today and I grooved to it while working.. 🙂
