AUSTRALIAN DJ FORUMS

This is the first mix I've ever made. I was planning on sending it to a dj who wants to see a mix before he lets me play at the nightclub he's a resident of. Only used a numark mixtrack pro and virtual dj (I know this will be criticised) because I havent got traktor running yet and I'm saving up for new decks. It's probably dodgy but I just need feedback no matter how harsh, so I can improve on it. Cheers

The first track isn't really electro, but the rest of your selection is pretty energetic.

The last track is a little out of place imo.

The mash around 6:25 gets a bit busy.

If you want to work in a nightclub I think you need to have mixed more than 1 mix ever. You'll also need to be able to use the gear at the club (which won't be a mixtrack pro).

Not too bad, you have the right idea and the mixing is clean (no double beats) things i would do a bit differently is tighten up the mix points, dont let the end of the previous track play out to the point where you dont really have a bassline, just claps and snares etc. from the intro and outtro of each song being mixed together is something to avoid if you can. some of the transitions were a little dry aswell, try filtering out the previous song before the break of the next song.. make full use of post fader fx if you can aswell ;)

Yea it wasn't really ment to be kept to one genre I just put a general label on it. Yea I noticed sometimes it got a little bit overwhelming, might need to plan my mixing points a bit better? Its pretty much like an open decks kind of thing, I've used club standard cdj's before and got a general feel of them, going to have some practice on a mates before I take it to a club. Thanks for your help man :)
