I thought it was great. Worked nicely
I almost never use them but they work well in a situation where you're changing style quickly.

thanks man!

yep i honestly never even thought of using them until i went to a show the other week where he did 3 beautiful ones and said "man, i have to try that"...it's just something different to spice things up

Yeah, it sounds good. Spinbacks are about timing, speed, and when you take the spinback out of the mix. In the sample you posted, you nailed it.

i never use the backspin unless its when i spin hiphop..its a good escape hatch if you get stuck in a transition

I liked that, music wasn't my cup of tea but it was a good mix and a well executed spin.

I'm mostly a house and techno guy but I enjoy a good spinback, used to only use them if I fucked up a mix but now I like to throw them in once in a while if it works in the mix...

Oh I'm a house guy all the way (and trance) but i love playing every genre i can.

I think it sounds great and really enhances the flow of the mix. Excellent work.

Awesome use of the backspin! I'm also experimenting with it, can't seem to get the timing down for my live mixes, but when I do it's gold. Good job bro!
