Oldschool hardtek ehe
Ppl were more cold blooded back then before the internet lol
Even the last track is ruff for some freeform
hard to swallow that nowadays freeform will be tagged as ukhh.
Thank you, Alex, for the kind words . I'm glad you like it.
As for the mix itself, while relistening, apart from some mix mistakes i made here and there, it's a pity the Soundcloud tracks by Babyshark and others didn't get a proper mixing and mastering, but maybe that's the charm of free tracks on Soundcloud, as 'amateurs' can have original ideas and/or still produce tracks in long defunct styles and forms.
Also, the gain structure in Traktor still needs my personal attention as i don't have it fully mastered myself.
There's a bunch to take into account (channel gain - headroom - auto gain/enable auto gain - output gain - recording gain - final gain + normalising in Audacity).
Wonder why they couldn't built in a proper visible output meter that's more clear and detailed than it is now... .
Any tips and working methods from 'real' (lol) dj's always welcome!
Coherent incoherence
