Dont you get bored of a track if you learn it inside out?
it depends - some I do for defo.......
I really need to play a lot more of my tunes or get recording and listening in the car - I'm still buying loadsa tunes but really busy at the mo so not gettin much time with the twins ........ knowledge of the last 3 months tunes is at an all time low - some I've prop only played 3 times max :doh: :doh:
THERE MAKING TUNES NOW TO CUT THE TIME OF MIXING DOWN SO YOU HEAR 90% OF THERE TUNE WHICH I THINK IS BOLLOCKS. WHEN I`M MIXING I WANNA MIX AS LONG AS POSS TO GET BASE LINE RIPPIN SO IT SOUNDS HARDER. EVERYONE WANTS TO DO BANGIN MIXING SO THE PRODUCERS SHOULD SORT EM SELVES OUT!
Depends if thats your style r not though innit? i know a lot of my tunes very well but theres too many to know every detail of all of em :cool:Quote:

If all you can come up with is intro to outro mixes with well sequenced tunes, then thats only your skill level.Quote:

Do you want to take this outside?
:lol:
so what you want every tune to be made straight through with no stitches??Quote:

you cant call tunes amatuer just cause they dont stick to "the basic rules", if you cant mix them together to get em to sound nice then maybe u shouldnt be mixin it?
the whole fun of mixing hardstyle is the amount of different ways the tunes go together.
yeah mate
i tend to find myself mixing the same set of tunes every time i mix
n it was gettin easy so 2nite i changed the order in which i played them n i was ****in lovin it coz it was quite a challenge :clap:

Not a dig at u personally or anyting bu!… but this is hardstyle….not some super intellignet 6hr prog set where bringing in the wrong hi-hat as the critical high point in the entire set can spoil the entire performance!! and you've got to rely on the producers for knowing where everthing's gonna come in lol!!
U can't critisize hardstyle for not being like other genre's - its the way it is...... thats why its a different genre!!
As said earlier...I like the little breaks and the bass slammin back in...... always gets a grin on the chops...... sometimes it's a pain in the ass if your mixing with tunes you don't know..... but thats hardstyle innit
U cant say theres no sequence to hardstyle coz there is, its just moe varied then other styles. Also, why would you want every tune to follow the exact same structure? If that was the case then wheres the skill in mixig em?Quote:

I'm not referring to hardstyle as a whole, rather certain tracks which are gradually increasing in numbers, that are hard or near impossible to mix.
No. Read again.Quote:

Basic rules of production. i.e music has to be in time. And I can mix them together real nice thanks, come see me DJ sometime or listen to a CD and be prepared to eat humble pie.Quote:

Again, i'm not talking about hardstyle, and I never criticised it for not being like other genres. I'm talking about some badly produced hardstyle tracks.Quote:

I'm talking about sequences in the tune. Like keeping to a 32/16 beat rythym instead of missing 4 beats somewhere then finshing 16 early here and there.Quote:

more people are playing it.........gettin played out in clubs more...... - alright granted, there;s a lot of feckin bollocks being made.... but unlike the really cheesy one's (tetris...*snigger*) which can be made fun of.... why don't u just ignore the shiit ones...... :?:

I never said you couldnt mix, you were the one who admitted they couldnt mix hardstyle very well.Quote:
