My new mix CD

[empath]

I haven't made a new mix in a while-- vote on the genre:

[uberclkgtr]

how about mix it up. throw some breaks, prog and hard shit all in one?!

[empath]

oh, second question-- any suggestions on where to record the thing now that metatrack and the studio are gone?

My home set-up blows for recording.

I was thinking about doing a breaks & prog 2 cd set...

[Nquire]

Breaks and Hard dance go together well believ it or not. My friend spins breaks and we always TAG. HE plays my records and I play his. Try it once, if you already havent.

[empath]

I'd have to play all my breaks records at +7 :)

[uberclkgtr]

slow down that damn hard dance shit! :D

seriously, techno and breaks go really well together at about 130-135 bpm. energetic prog too...

[Tails]

Yeah, work it all and ramp up the pitch... do two CDs like you said, if you want. =.)

(An' send me a copy when it's done? :puppydog: )

I hate breaks so I vote for either of the other two. Actually I'm not even sure what hard dance is, so I vote for some progginess.

[retail]

if you must choose just one i say bangin' progressive :D

[rajdeep]

Actually I've been very piqued since John said he was spinning at Japone. My vote -> downtempo!! :D

[empath]

my definition of downtempo = 135 bpm, lol...

:delirious::werd:

[maynard]

bangin' progressive? isn't that an oxymoron?

[kirk]

where's the option for polka???

[Tails]

So far the results look pretty evenly split, which only means one thing... you've got to use 'em all! :D

[rajdeep]

John hasn't put out a breaks mix as yet. I'll look forward to that.

hate breaks? I hope you don't consider breaks to be all that florida funky crap...there's some really subliminal stuff out there....mostly prog/breaks and nu-skool electro...really.

[psion's gate]

I don't get hard dance...It always sounds like the dj is slam fucking the speakers.

I say mix breaks and prog. Most interesting sound. Bangin stuff is cool for about 20 minutes, but good progressive/breakbeat/electro/deep stuff gets better with each listen.

[mojojones]

how about some gabber?

:evilred:

[zartan]

banging progressive = oxymoron? you haven't seen a good sasha set.

and john don't you hate prog?

[empath]

I dislike most prog and most prog djs :)

[rajdeep]

Prog DJs->:slap:<-John

No, I've heard a wide range of breaks. I used to spin breaks about 4-5 years ago and one of the people in my SF crew spun breaks in addition to d&b. I'm not saying there are *no* good breaks, but there are very few breaks djs/producers that I like.

[BrianArsenault]

[empath]

Okay, the people have spoken...

I'm doing a two CD set, one with deeper breaks and progressive, and a 2nd with harder breaks and trancier progressive.

In case anyone cares :)
