Tara said: I find BK & Andy Farley - 'Accelerate' the hardest thing to mix coz just as I think I've got it, it starts speeding up and completely fucks my head up!
HINT: mix it BEFORE it starts speeding up
tune that I hate trying to mix in is the Vinal + Devotion rmx of 'Crazy Styles' - starts off with dnb, then kicks into 180bpm freeform.... only problem is, when it kicks in, its fullon so a right pain to mix

LiamStyles said: After playing at a "retro" night a few months ago, all dance music (techno, trance, house, hard house etc) is a piece of piss compared to playin 80's and 90's stuff.
Back then tunes werent made for DJs to mix, it was all about the actual songs / tunes.
Nowadays dance music is made with the DJs in mind, and it makes everything so easy.
Liam, "Retro" tunes are piss to mix, even old skool/hardcore - but hey thats my generation from when i started mixing (91 - 97)
The thing with retro/piano tunes is that back then there was no specific layout of the beats/bars, so there wasn't necessarily a correct point to 'bring tunes in' you have a couple of bars that can be 'caught', most tunes from about 94 onwards were set out with a correct donomination of beats (Think Ken Doh - Nakasaki, Nush - U Girls etc. etc., this kinda era)
Practice makes perfect, and this is something i have no trouble with, but it's getting hold of the old tunes (and they are not cheap nowadays) to play around with, again something which i have shit loads of, after 12 years collecting

For two reasons;
1) It's clear plastic lime green vinyl, and hurts my eyes to look at sometimes.
2) It takes a good 90 secs of intro before anything resembling a beat kicks in.
muppet... its a piece of piss.. look for where the vinyl changes colour about a minute in.. youll find a well defined first kick..
