Yeah its not dropping is the problem, just need to spend some time working out an easy way to get a double drop business with the actual beat going

they're all not that hard to mix. standard 8 or 16 bar intros, which is something some other mala tunes don't have. no weird rhythmic shit going on either. try to mix left leg out on the high hats first. once you get used to it, it's pretty easy to mix from the start too.

I meant more that they're really hard to blend with other tunes without it sounding like complete shyte as opposed to playing them in a mix at all, mainly because of the beat structure; lots of snares and kicks.

actually yeah, listening back Hunter isn't nearly as bad as Left Leg Out or Forgive or Bury da Bwoy. Anti-war dub is also hard as fuck for me to blend. I legit cannot blend that one at all. (mainly cause i don't have it on vinyl and the bpm changes throughout the mp3 file, so it's ungriddable).

I'm not a huge fan of Learn, much prefer Lean Forward, which I love to mix (second drop :P: ). Also love mixing Blue Notez, always goes hard.

Unless you've got a rip that changes the tempo throughout (no idea why anybody would do that) why not just mix it as if it was a vinyl and use your ears? I presume by "changing bpm" you mean Serato or whatever program you're using is throwing up dodgy bpms so syncing or whatever don't work too well
