house mixes (not poker related, sorry :o) |
 |
1 | |
umm. pokerwise, I am like +7k this year or something, but I haven't played since the school year. I now have all relevant licensing to deal securities and life insurance where I live, but I won't be doing so - instead I am returning to "college" for a second degree in Actuarial Sciences to be an actuary. I figure that to be the best plan moving forward.
I just find poker really stressful I guess - I was playing Magic The Gathering online recently, and even just playing the game, and listening to opponents go on tilt, stressed me right the heck out, so I guess I know why I am not sticking with poker for the long haul. I have a pretty volatile personality and I need something more steady, and something where I can really get on a roll, focusing on the good, in a routine sort of thing.
-------------
annnyyway, the main reason I am saying hi, is for the .. like.. 1 person who might be interested,
i recorded a pair of "live" practice mixes using software, it can be a bit choppy during the cross overs because i guess my laptop just cant quite handle it
i would think the only real "benefit" from listening to these is if you just want to know more names of more tracks, its going to be something like 70 unique tracks in total if you just skim the mix really quick for anything that sounds like you like
im still really trying stuff out, and a couple times i made really obvious misclicks, but overall im really happy just doing it i guess, the process is really involving and i get to shut out everything else for 3 hours straight and just focus on track selection and placement and stuff. (i decided on tracks on the fly both times, which was fun !)
I tried to include plenty of different subgenres, I am getting more into "techno" (which defined by beatport is usually a bit of a swing rhythm, with a very steady drumbeat), put in some of my always-present trance, and some electro - I seem to be less interested in the totally smooth progressive sound of the last few years.

an interesting side note is that with live mixing I realized pretty quickly that I would want to create edited versions of tracks to make them blend the way I want them to - when you work with the studio software you do that while creating a mix, but this way I have to have them pre-arranged, so I did that with a few tracks already.
Stay frosty LP,
rocko

some hours ago i listened for the first time to Fedde Le Grand 'Metrum' (Manuel De La Mare Remix) and was like 'this must be the sickest remix of Metrum i've heard so far" :D!
i don't really know most of the other songs from the tracklists but i feel i will also enjoy them a lot, probably will give your mixes a shot at some point |

the stuff on the mix spans a few years, I try to stay current, but at the same time, I like adding flavour with my favorites from past years and such. and yeah, Metrum totally fits the bill for the "techno" sound that i'm starting to really enjoy these days. (I am just going by what the techno category on Beatport seems to sound like)
if you liked that track I would say Alex Del Amo - After Hours (Original Mix) and Marco V - Unprepared (Marcel Woods Dub [or remix]) are kind of in the same vein of sound, and I enjoy all 3 about equally right now, these two were in the august one
.. actually I modified after hours for the mix because i thought it was way too dragging - on with the breaks in the main beat(the real song has 2 super long breaks), so, the actual mp3 is less fun imo ! |

i spent some time today listening to ToolRoom records' channel @ youtube. (http://www.youtube.com/user/toolroomrecords)
there were some nice tracks over there (including Manuel De La Mare remix of Metrum), the only annoying thing is the guy who repeatedly announces that it's ToolRoom's song so they can't really be used for anything if taken specifically from their youtube channel
and yeah i liked Alex Del Amo - After Hours and i will be coming back for tracks i guess so thanks for the blog !:D |

yeah, thats like.. THE definitive toolroom label sound, almost every track ive ever heard on that label seems to have that "slightly swing, hard steady driving beat" |

seriously... what?
Can't afford thousand of tracks from bp, juno, aj, dt, etc? Totally understandable.
But... youtube rips? eeeeeeeeeeeeew. That's just wrong. |

I listened to the entire first mix while at work today and enjoyed it (so did my coworkers.) Felt like the first half was a lot stronger than the second but enjoyable either way.
Excited to check out the second mix. |
