Spmc & LX One - Hunted. Handy to mix in but to mix out is another thing entirely. Always bring the incoming tune in a beat too late or a beat early.

I usually have a hard time mixing: Gravious- Monolith, Scorn- Gravel Bed, Goth-Trad tunes, Moving Ninja tunes, Dubstep tunes, Electronic tunes, and music in general because I neither DJ or perform.

I don't know man, for some reason that tune always throws me off. It should be easy.

pretty easy to mix it in when you got it beatmatched properly,

only thing that could make it hard to mix is the second drop, but it's just the matter of feeling/counting the tune, i think the synth hits in one beat early (might be wrong, but dfinitely before the 1)

tunes of Girl Unit's Wut EP are shit to mix, not a problem to mix them in, but mix out of them, due to the silly structure (Every time especially)
mixing anything with intro longer than 8 bars is a bit of stab in the dark

I have found Skream- I(Loefah remix) works rather well with Percy too.

^^thats another one that's awkward cos the start of the intros well quiet

i know there's that one note at the start of a bar thats louder than the others but i get confused trying to get the two tunes in sync with eachother (like in terms of structure not beatmatching)

I used to be annoying to mix, but serato made it easier as i can mark where that first note starts (even if i can barely hear it hah)

i can imagine it being a tnuc to mix on vinyl, but aside from that, once you get it beatmatched it's pretty easy with autocue you have on cdjs etc.
