[clifford_-]

this?!?!

yes

Copped it on vinyl this morning from an oxfam shop, couldn't pass up an opportunity like that.

I WANT

[Intergrated Society]

for the record i absolutely suck at mixing the 2step tune by scuba on naked lunch.

I found a nice mix between this, one of the songs of Burial's first album and Icicle's Breathing Again.

I've always found Jungle to be a shit to mix. Anyone who can mix Acid Rain VIP by Equinox is a god in my eyes.

[Riddles]

atm really struggling to mix 130ish stuff dunno why lol, just need to get some practice in i guess. probably doesnt help my collection of 130 stuff it pretty limited.

someone teach me how to mix burial

it's almost impossible to mix with dubstep most times - you will quickly recon that it works better with house music around 120-125 bpm. most his stuff is around this tempo

you can mix Distant lights (kode9 rmx) as well as pirates and unite (they are all quantised and 138-140bpm)....gutted is doable as its 137bpm but tough as far as untrue is concerned archangel, near dark and homeless are the only tunes mixable with dubstep but you need to pitch chase constantly and confidently as its not made on a grid and isnt quantised so it has no regular exact tempo but it is doable

ego / mirror actually mixes perfectly with dubstep but at about +8 and is quantised....

if you like burial and want more stuff thats easy to mix at dubstep tempo check out Late & Clubroot

ive snuck pirates and gutted in to a few mixes. only at house parties mind when its very late/early and if you grand national it, it doesnt matter.

would love to find a place for etched headplate in a mix. pretty much my number 1 burial tune of all time

this thread is confusing the fuck out of me

[WhosZena]

Shortstuff ...grrrrr

The worst ones that are easy to mix in but not out

[Sheff]

mixing in DJ madd - good old days and switching the bass on the drop

TMSV - all it takes

[MasterA]

always enjoy mixing Watchin' U by Matt-U.

[gwa]

untold remix of rama on 2nd drop is probably my fav dubstep tune to mix ever

just rewind and cut to the next tune

[wilson]

Bad: Mala - Eyez (intro)

Good: Mala - Eyez (rest of tune).

[Riddles]

I've got a new worst, Kutz - Shake It.

Just can't get it right, any tips?

lol yeah the intro always fucks me over

[MikeE]

Bad: Mala - Eyez (intro)

Good: Mala - Eyez (rest of tune).

How is this hard, for 99% of dubstep its pitch up just a tad (.7 ish) and its in time... as a side note, double drops with footcrab or dj q remix of woo really well

[Sheff]

its the actual intro which drops at a dodgy time if i remember correctly

[Sheff]

it drops after like 4 bars instead of 8 or something

[wilson]

Conventional tunes have a 24 bar intro. Eyez' intro is 28 bars long, with four bars of silence leading into the drop. I guess all you need to do is start the tune 4 bars earlier than normal, but that's easier said than done if you like to mix out of the second drop of the previous tune, which often has a beat-less breakdown..And you have the SHITTEST DECKS KNOWN TO MAN.
