I mix pretty horribly. I have my moments though. I usually stick to a BPM of around trip hop, dub, IDM etc. Plus, well, I just enjoy that music more.
My equipment sucks. My record mats on my turntables are pieces of felt I cut out. Somehow spending stupid amounts of $ on pieces of felt that read "technics" or "plasktikman" didn't make much sense to me. My mixer is worth crap.Actually, I got it for free. So, usually the fader has to stay in the middle and I have to move the channels up and down. Also, my cue volume doesn't really work- just on one channel. So on channel two it's basically a guessing game or listening REALLY good into my headphones and trying to weed out the track in the faint distance from whatever is on channel one. I don't have a monitor speaker either. The entire thing is hooked up to my little speaker system that's also my cd player and tape player. I remember playing somewhere and using a monitor speaker for the first time in a long time. I couldn't stand it, ironically enough. Then...their monitor actually overheated and letted out these fumes that sent out everyone in the booth covering their mouth and eyes. fun times. So yeah...if anyone wants to send me new needles, or just some new equipment in general...feel free. Email me for my addy. ;) ...and that's how I mix. d __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
