Voted video 1. Good how your mix is a bit outside the box, its not all 'current' tracks/genres but it would still get the floor bopping. Really like the cheeky ghostbusters edit :)

I've been looking forward to these videos and they don't disappoint - you have both been very creative and shown technical skills too. 3style is an understatement!

There were a couple of slip-ups and awkward mixes in both (unsurprising with such challenging tracklists). Overall I think Mix 1 managed a bit more variety in sound/style and was a touch cleaner - gets my vote.

Liked both mixes a bunch.

vid one was super good just thought that in the end vid two would rock a party more.. or at least a party id want to go to :P I also liked how there was more mixing/overlap in the tracks with vid 2. Just a personal preference.

The only thing that annoyed me with both of the vids was the abundance of the dicer effects and the filters but it certainly can smooth out some of the mixes.

bravo both of you.

watched both enjoyed them both. voted for mix number one. i felt that mix number one had more genres, and the mixing was a bit tighter. by that i mean there a few times in mix two where we were left listening to loops or blank instrumentals. i also feel like mix 1 might have more tricks up his sleeve for the next round. mix number 2 overall pretty good job, next 3style try to incorporate more older music and variety. just a guess but i would think dj one is older than dj two, or at least dj one has a larger "musical vocabulary".

good jobs guys and good luck.

Both mixes were really well done. I'd say Mix 1 was a bit smoother, but I liked the music selection in Mix 2 much better. I would say Mix 2's house section at the beginning was A LOT better than the hip-hop sections, mind you though, the BPM did change quite drastically to a lower one when he got into Hip-Hop. Mix 1 was basically the same or a very similar BPM throughout. I personally think Mix 2 would get the party hopping better, but then again Mix 1 is very well done, just found that the track selection wasn't all there for me. I respect that you were thinking outside of the box and using older stuff.

plus Fuck UK:djchris: haha

Voted for Video 1. Could be the era of music, but either way whole thing was on point - love the mixing, was definitely creative, and on all the fly - impressed.
