NICELY done Bruh...i'm an Ultra newbie to all this stuff..been spinnin' since the early 90's though..
How'd you record it though..u went out of your computer into??

i like the video mix... i hear some effects.. are you using the one that came with the mixer or you have an effect processor. Also what kind of computer you using...

The mix is not bad, but your scratches... are annoying IMHO, since you are trying the super fast chirps/stabs and it just sounds offbeat in 80% of the cases. Also the visual effect you are using to add this scratches is not well chosen since it just makes the video change its brightness - it flickers. Doesn't look good IMHO.

Well done for being your first video mix.

thanks for the love homies. i'm still super new to the whole video thing myself. i copped the video plug in the day it dropped and messed with it for alittle while but it wasn't working well for me. lots of drop outs and stuff. so i didn't mess with it for months. but the new version works great. so over the past day i've figured out how to start editing my own vidz to tracks and all that.

but ya for this mix i just ran my shit into a dvd recorder and hit record. i kinda feel like i was getting a slite delay in some of the cuts but i'm still fuckin with it. it would be dope if there a multitrack video recording program like garageband or something.

i'll be recording some more later. i'll keep you posted.

My objections are again your scratches. Even though the sound better at a faster base speed, this is too much. Check the scratches at 5:30 and 11:30. Overused and they mess up the video. The displayed vidoe just flickers. I doubt that this is very appealing to the average viewer. Check the scratches at 21:05 they fall off beat!

In this case: Less is more IMHO. Without the scratches alls over the place this mix would be much more enjoyable (and hell yeah - I usually love scratches).

Sick mix! Great example of how video should be mixed!
dj lad 7:50 PM - 29 October, 2008
