Mix 1

Mix 3
Skasja, I would have if I were around earlier to see. I've been so busy at work that I'm lucky to practice a few times a month. Anyway... Things are settling down, I'm managing a new location and I'm getting back to practicing...... Saying that, I'm looking forward to listening to this battle. Good luck to all the participants.

Good luck guys! I'll be listening to your mixes later.
Quality stuff! Good luck guys!

I'm onto this battle,
I just listened to mix 1 and I must say that it was a quality mix. Sounded like a few effects were used to make some interesting transitions, all of it sounded great. Some tracks even sounded a little technoish but retained that housy feel.
I'm just listening to mix 2 right now....another great mix - already any decision is going to be pretty difficult.
Will update later
Well....I'm screwed. I should not have listened to any of these mixes - They are all good in their own way and I honestly can't decide on which one is better.
It's going to be between mix 1 and 2 for me.
The last track on mix 3 was kins of tacked on the end and then faded out due to time. So I was a little disappointed when I didn't hear all that track.
The last track of mix 2 was sooo good - really seemed like a peak time piece that you would drop once that dancefloor was packed. At the same time it seemed to be in the wrong place for me in a 30 min set....possibly at 20 to min 25 for me and a slightly more mellow track to close the mix out. I did notice the volume levels/gain creep up during the set.
Mix 1 seemed the most consistent and held a steady vibe for the 30min that just seemed to work for me the most.
So I'm going with mix 1
All 3 were very good and I just had a very enjoyable 90 minutes of music. There is pretty much nothing to say about mixing and track selection. All very well well executed and thought through

Comments: what a cool 1st Trk. Dunno... I kinda slipped outta this one for a few.. But got back into it at 9:00. There's clear evidence of skill which is where my points go. But there's something missing here. You know what your doing but there's something off with the momentum.

Comments: alright, right into head bobbin beats.. Setting a tone right from the start. Very clean mixing also. Here we goooo, that vibe is still on. Still strong.. Just wondering if gains were adjusted throughout the session. Seems like it got louder. LOVIN This Trk at 13... Trippy 16:00. Didn't like how Trk finished at 21. Vibe change. Ending killed it
Total: 19
Wow..... Very interesting everyone. Enjoyed this much.
Comfortably voting 1. 3 had great potential. #2 could have landed 1st place, but there was something missing for me.

I was mix one, thanks for voting Diceallion & Vernski. Thought the three of us all put up good quality mixes: I'm somewhat disappointed with the lack of interest in this battle since I know there are many DJF members who spin this type of music...
