For those of you following this thread welcome back, for those of you that stumbled in some other way, HI!
The Idea
A DJ mix competition with a twist; instead of saying we want a 30 min house mix... GO!! Leading to everyone digging for their best, 'stand out' tunes and throwing down in an attempt to outshine each other. We're setting the tracks for you, so you have to outshine the rest with your own creativity and personal interpretation.
The Challange
Take the 10 tracks listed below, spanning Breaks, Dub Step, Drum & Bass, House and Techno (2 of each) and mix them together. Quite simple really... (if you disregard the 'odd' mix of styles, and the tempo changes that crop up)
'Rules'
- Use all 10 tracks, and no others - in any order
- You are allowed to use one additional sample of your choosing, one shot or loop - max 16 beats. The sample can be used as much or as little as you want.
- Have FUN
- Winner will be decided by public poll
The Tracks
Biometrix - Bass Skanker Link (dub step)
Chris Lake and Marco Lys - Stay Link (house)
Cyberoptix - Geisha Link (dub step)
Dopamine/Diverted - Only One (BLIM remix) Link (breaks)
Jason Fernades / Hugo Paixo - Intruder Link (techno)
Kiko & Ginos - Anse Vasta Link (techno)

Admittedly these are Juno Download links, but they can all be found on Beatport as well...
Start downloading now, and have you mixes submitted by 13th Feb (just over a couple of weeks away). Post the mixes to my Soundcloud Drop Box and i'll sort out poll threads on the 13th.
With the mix, post the order you used the tracks, the sample you used and what software/gear combo you did it with.
And now i'm off to buy the tracks...
