Brid / Jan 2011 Promo mix (Circus DJ Competition)

lol ............ guess you dont know what makes a good dj then brid , never mind , keep thinking , get back to me when youve figured it out ......... KEEP IT TRACTOR

what is the point of not allowing ableton/midi sets when thats what you would be playing out live on, as long as your doing something other than just mixing tracks generically.

i know that past circus comps have been won by people using an ableton setup (aswell as this one it seems) but im pretty sure it just means people mixing on traktor etc. generically - i've just looked at the comp entry rules. and it just means mixes put together on the computer in ableton. so your point about midi/traktor is balls.

my dj name is djcomputertrojan we should do a b2b

If you are actually 28 you are a massive life failure I'd have killed myself by now.

You have some sort of superiority complex (and possibly several learning deficiencies) from being able to mix (shit hard trance) and like to express that to any and everyone i.e. "wen was yor last mix like? Supper star Dj".

I could imagine you committing some horrendous crime in the not too distant feature and upon capture asking the arresting offers what their set up is and if the jury think they have ever learned how to mix on vinyl.

You really should have used that money on your cdj 800000's on getting some education. Honest opinion.

lol .........

To use conway's car analogy, the best formula one drivers are those who can push themselves and their cars to the limits, not those who sit down and coast round the track. They can only learn this through the skills they learn driving formula one cars. This applies to all fields I think. The problem being that now the rally drivers have joined in the game, and you have 2 completely different ways of driving different types of cars, and people trying to constantly compare them, to make themselves feel comfortable or secure in what they are using, or score points of someone who uses something different to them.

Skills are relative to the medium, and the fact that technology allows so much manipulation of the tracks, if all you do is a mix and blend, then that's not skillful use of the technology, but to me that's the same with vinyl, or CD anyone who simply blends tracks. They should either go back to their bedroom and put some more time in, or move over. Simply being capable of beatmatching and using that as some sort of bragging right is just as ridiculous as someone using how many possibilities are available with digital technology for the same reason. If you don't push the technology to it's limits, regardless of what you use, you aren't a skilled user.

To me, being able to do this, and still transfer the music across in an enjoyable way for the people listening is what makes a skillful DJ.

i would agree with you chris personally i use vinyl , cdj , ableton and tractor .......... why just use 1 technology .............

fair comment conway i dont doubt for a second hes a good dj , but why cant he explain it himself . he seems to know but woult tell , whats all that about
it was a simple question he asked me , but yet he wount say what he thinks ?????? strange

iv never heard of those decks SCOTTY ????? do you get sky hooks with them ????

why would i want to go b2b with a mincer like you

ill mc then and you dj?

djhostile virus mixing tunes for 6 hours he wont rest,
he don't use midi in a con-test,
what set up do you use, cause his is the bess(t),
says hes 28 but comes across like that number is much less

I can't believe I've sat and read through that, fuck me.

Anyways back on point, enjoyed the mix Brid unlucky with the comp. To be honest some of those selected mixes are shit, what the judges were playing at god only knows.

all of this hate because i have a good set up ......... little miss house on fire ......... i use vinyl , midi , cdj whats wrong with having a good set up , if you cant afford to have it mate thats your problem , my set up is perfect for what i want to be able to do ....... so im happy

yeh unlucky brid , at least you gave it your best shot mate , better luck next time mate , chin up ............ obviousley the judges are to blame willa that was my first thought ..... lol

I would love to have seen the reaction of di.fm when they listened to your tech house mix in a sad attempt to get on the station, it might have knocked some sense of reality into your thick head.

...........lol

iv heard it all now .............. obviousley his mix wasnt as good as what you think it is matey , you cant blame the judges for that , in their opinion he just wasnt what they wanted , thats life , dont blame the judges tho ..........
