The DJ Thread

many of these tracks i never even heard of. 

 

i bet there are many djs here (or those who cook up mixes but don't go about doing gigs).  why don't some of yous who's got skills to put the sets together.  i'd love to listen how they come out.

 

it'd be nice if peeps can share their effect gears across the net, wouldn't it...

 

great thread, btw.

Some time back i noticed that there were a lot of awesome tracks that clocked in at exactly 120 bpm. So I present to you my first "120 bpm slow-trance extravaganza," clocking in about an hour if mixed.

 

midival punditz - piya tasteful ethnic vocals and breakbeats start us off

aba structure - rescue this is a really drifting and beautiful track, and the beats are solid enough to get the mix moving

makyo - nothing is real (headspin mix) now high gear kicks in. this track is why this mix exists.

hifi companions - a night in timisoara this track is a respite from the intensity in some ways, but the soaring synths are out of this world

moai - crystal elixir rather lengthy and very hypnotic... exactly what we need to get everybody tranced out. check out how the track shifts part way through to prepare for the climaxes of the set

younger brother - scanner slow burning badass track with a pounding bassline from the master

banco de gaia - lai lah this is the last of the heavily danceable tracks. there is something very melancholy here that lets one know the set is ending soon.

talpa - back to dreaming exactly like the track says...this should expunge the final energy of the dj and the dancers and get us ready to chill out again

shulman - mushroom therapy i guess we are dreaming now... let shulman's almost idm-like beats wrap around your head, now you can chill

 

 

for a slightly less trancey but more classy effect, i could alternately go in this direction:

hifi companions - a night in timisoara

kiwa - pure in motion

banco de gaia - lai lah

younger brother - scanner

unkle - celestial annihilation

 

 

young american primitive - these waves and total eclipse - nakano ghost could also go in here somewhere, probably nearer the beginning. I'd like to fill this out to maybe 90-120 minutes eventually, and actually try and mix it out (i lack the necessary equipment presently).

a small downtempo/dub/lounge/chill double set.. a bit more day-oriented

 

I didnt check if the flow would be perfect.. but anyway, I imagined something like:

 

acoustic guitars to set the mood.. then go up in beautiful melodic chill, arriving at more jazzy loungychill with some vocals, finally stepping down to more instrumental and mid eastern stuff ...

 

 

kaya project - resolve

prometheus - sweet tooth

sandspider - small time hassles

nada - earthgarden

shakatura - lucid dreaming

zero one - transformation

Ticon - The first moment

J.Viewz - Room for Me

Gabriel le mar - dreamland

Sounds from the Ground - move on

pitch black - flex

vibrasphere - manzanilla

Son kite - on air (midival punditz remix)

kaya project - stone turns black

entheogenic - mindless

That is why because most of them are old school ambient songs from 95-98 that you were not into cause you are mostly into new stuff...Go and dig, they are very trippy and psychedelic...;)

I see you are 'ultimately' classical, yantra, I like modern classical composers and their almost alternative psychedelic approach :

 

Gustav Mahler - Amazing, tripped out composer...has very long pieces and lots with epic structures but not heroic but demented.

 

Bela Bartok - Psychedelic, sinister, demonic, primal composer with amazing touches of lyrical and enchanting...perfect composer, my definite favourite.

 

Gyorgy Ligeti - Another hungarian magician, similar style to Bartok.

 

Dmitri Shostakovich - Sympathetic, constructive russian mind, at some stages pretty psychedelic.

 

Maurice Ravel - Famous for his collossus BOLERO, perfect modern classical piece...

 

And I am not even such classical freak, I've heard some of their worx and they were all very good and creative.

who knows how to start a party more than the legendary Beethoven

lets split the rooms guys... lets say this club has 4 distinct rooms needing DJs

tell which room you wish playing in and what your set is :)

 

room #1 - Psychedelic room

room #2 - Ambiant room

room #3 - Hip Hop ( had to make one )

room #4 - Cigar Lounge ( where classic music belongs... post your old song for the background music these gentlemen need while smoking those expensive imported cigars and drinking this thousand bux Porto bottle :lol: )

 

 

Here it is ... our own... online Club

 

*keep em coming guys!!!*

we should do something like this:

 

someone (obviously the thread starter) should post a song. then everybody should mix that song. heh.. that would kinda be like a contest.

is this like a bad idea?

the problem with the "round robin djing" idea is that I've never heard most of the tracks y'all are using. How am I supposed to know what to play next, if I've never heard what I'm supposed to be mixing out of? I'll stick with the original format for now.

 

Last semester at college, my good friend Adam and I Dj'ed a psy-chill/freestyle radio show on the college's radio station. Some of the better playlists went like this...

 

supposedly a springtime vibe here...

Ooze - Quintessence

Adham Shaikh - Dubfire

Jumbo Layer - The Lily Dub

The Orb - Terminus

Shpongle - Shpongle Falls

Makyo - Pashyanti (deeply dubbed mix)

Saafi Brothers - Supervision

Total Eclipse - Freefalling Upwards

Koxbox - Searching for Psychoactive Herbs

Adham Shaikh - Opal

Ozric Tentacles - Psychic Chasm

Shpongle - Star Shpongled Banner (Brothomstates Remix)

Eat Static - Forgotten Rites

The Orb - Apple Tree In My Backyard

Abakus - California Sunshine

DJ Frane - Green Buds in the Springtime

Shulman - A New Paradigm

 

 

one of my most cohesive, yet varied, sets. good flow through various styles of psychedelia:

Grateful Dead - Dark Star

Can - One More Night

Passengers - Slug

Sound Tribe Sector Nine - Baraka

Flaming Lips - What is the Light?

Tortoise - Crest

Robert Miles - Paths (FSOL Remix)

Nodens Ictus - Gopuram (live version)

Amon Tobin - El Wraith

FSOL - Among Myselves

Eat Static - Salon Kitty

Ozrics - Waterfall City

Padmasana - Be Where Now

Makyo - Behind the Veil

Greg Hunter - Siliconnectar (candledance mix)

Synaesthesia - Nomads

Ishq - Fire Salamander

Global Chillage - Moonrise

Mystery of the Yeti - Sacred Communication / Yeti Revelation

Tangerine Dream - Phaedra

 

started off cool but lost some direction near the end, i think:

Daler Mehndi - Tunak Tunak Tun

Waterjuice - Low Room

Legion of Green Men - Constellation (Adham Shaikh Warp Time Remix)

Saafi Brothers - Wellness Farm

Essa 3 - Sundial

Keiichi Suzuki - Satellite Serenade

Kumba Mela Experiment - Spiritual Journey (Mother Milk Edit)

Fluke - OK

Astralasia - Unveria Zect

Banco de Gaia - Tongue in Chic

Ott - Billy the Kid Strikes Back

Ozrics - Psychic Chasm

Masala - Lucid Dreams

Ochi Brothers - Sonic Branches

Akira OST - Battle Against Clown

Sunny Ade - Ase

Earthling & Chicago - B

Juno Reactor - Angels & Men

 

 

Let's keep this thread going, I love the concept! Next I'll cook up some new mixes.
