Inspired by the EPIC NEW YEARS EVE Mix Battle, I'm calling out DJs for a REMIX of the NYE mix: the EPIC NEW YEAR Mix Battle! If you're in, please post in this thread.
The point of this battle will be to get creative with mixing, blending, transitions, sampling, juggling, scratching, and having fun like only DJs do. As such the rules will be as follows:
* The mix will be at least 20 minutes with the last track playing or starting during the 20th minute. This means that as long as the last track is playing or starting between 20:00 and 20:59, the mix will qualify to compete.
* Music can be played via any sound source, but must be recorded live. This means that TT, CDJ, DJ app, DVS or mobile device can be used, but the performance must be recorded live in one continuous take.
* No post-production allowed. This means that no DAWs (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=daw&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDEQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FDigital _audio_workstation&ei=VFvYUMx5quvSAZXbgdAN&usg=AFQjCNHdL0ynL7zqAA7SX4PzOrtNCJCuMw&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.dmQ) or DAEs (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=digital%20audio%20editor&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&sqi=2&ved=0CEEQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FDigital _audio_editor&ei=alvYUPXqO6bH0QHR2oHoCg&usg=AFQjCNGhmFGAxlaHcf9JXaCgoKBrjyif4w&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.dmQ) can be used to fix the mix. Ok, you can normalize... but that's it!
* The Track list is published below. Remixes are ENCOURAGED!
* The mix must play at least 8 of the 15 tracks. YOU DO NOT NEED TO PLAY ALL TWELVE TRACKS! You do not have to play the entire track.
* The mix must include ONE track that isn't on the list. I don't care if it's classical, country, or DixieLand singing in the bathtub. You must play one track that isn't listed. Make it good.
* Mixes will be due to the Battle Mod (Jon Avalon) by 19:00 (7PM) EST on Thursday, January 3!
* Voting will start shortly after the submission deadline and conclude on Sunday, January 6 at ~17:00 (5PM) EST.
* Winner gets bragging rights and losers have to acknowledge their loss to the winner in their DJF signature for January.
So sign up!
