Mix a Week Challenge

Crosano · Post by **Crosano** » Mon Mar 12, 2012 9:10 pm

We are competing to complete one mix a week with a maximum run time of 15 minutes based on a certain category/sub-genre of dubstep. At the end of the week (every Thursday, 8:00 pm Pacific Standard Time) or some time before that deadline, will post their tune in this thread w/ tracklist and equipment list via mixcloud. On Fridays I will start a poll to vote between the mixes in the thread.
Questions? Ask on this thread or PM me! You can join anytime just by posting a mix in here that at least 75% of the tracks fit into the category/sub-genre which is open to interpretation.
Winners will be Archived in this top post and have bragging rights. (We are also trying to start a DSF mixcloud account, for which the winner would mix representing DSF with an 45min to 2 hour mix)

This Week's Category/ Sub-Genre/theme: Happiness

This week's Contenders:

TheGreatDanerrr (won by default as he was the only one who submitted an entry.)

Winner Week 1:

Can you clarify what is dirty/heady? Are we talking like a Tunnidge/ Coki- All of a sudden type stuff?

So is this tearout or heavier? so confused. I would really like a topic to be just everyone make a mix of an artist/their favorite artist and whoever can best profile them in 15 mins. Would be challenging.

Everyone. Just go with what you consider heavy. I was just throwing out a general focus. Its not the biggest detail sheesh.

Can we use soundcloud? I see potential probelms in the fact that mixcloud only allows mp3 and that mixes must be 8 tracks or more.

http://www.mixcloud.com/DPS/toy-cars-plastic-cigars-dubstep-mix-vol-1/ <3 It's not completely heavy but most of it

I use 2 krk's and an Allen and Heath Xone:DX with Serato Itch, soon I'll switch to CDJ's of course but I'm on a tight budget right now.

First entry in, and it's a 40min submission (opening post did say 15mins) and has at least 2 Skrillex tunes that I can see.

FWIW, I think the weekly 'theme' should be a word/description, not a sub-sub-sub genre classification. Let people interpret a word however they want.

I put the Skrillex songs in there for a few friends that are Skrillex fanboys. I'm not a fan of him really. I'd take it out but I'm on vacation
