Boiler Room

Not sure it's true for that particular mix.


More mixes were off pitch than not.


Staggering for a professional DJ imo

I think you miss the point of DJ's, Festivals and Gigs in general.

The crowd appears to be having the craic and I know if I was at a gig with speakers that size and DJ banged out a set of that style tracks and quality of mixing, I wouldn't be standing to one side with my arms folded stroking my chin saying,

‘Hmm, more mixes are off pitch here than not, staggering for a professional DJ’

That’s a well mixed set of banging tracks that would have any crowd brimming with energy.

Didn't mention anything about the festival or gig.


Someone stated it was nice to see someone been able to mix vinyl.


That particular set was a bad example.


the least to expect from someone who "dj's" "mixes" for a living is them to get the basics right.


Some part of that was not just a bit off was all over the shop and cut early as it was so bad.


Sure, tune/record placment etc are more important. I was just pointing out it was a bad example of someone mixing vinyly well.


You can untwist your knickers now..

Untwisted.

I sort of agree - it bugs the crap out of me when the mixing is poor. It spoils a set. The below from Laurent Garnier at Dekmantel is a cracking set of uplifting house - but his mixing is pretty atrocious at times. Beatmatching out and some poor cuts.

Thoughts?

I love his sets and this one was is good too. But was also amazed to hear him off so much.

First of all, the boilerroom "kit" is not great at most events. How do i know this.. Well sunil and many others have not giving their permission to upload there previous sets because it was so bad, plus the crowd at most of these are almost on top you, making it a little bit difficult mixing with vinyl. On this Sunil video, Skip to 24:00, some guy touches it or bangs of the desks, but he pulls it back and can still pull a smile :pac:

Thanks for that, i have listened to that track in various mixes over years and never knew the name of it.

Is it coincidence he chose the play this track in belfast, when it was included on one of the hellraiser gigs way back in 1993 that were really successful in belfast,
