Gonna make an intro for it before I press it onto CDs. Just wanted to post the mp3 for the DJs to get some feedback in case there's anything I need to change before I press it up and hand it out.
Swizzle 11:56 AM - 4 March, 2010
Good job as usual. Your word plays are always well planned and thought out. i.e. Salt N Peppa sayin' Day and Nite to Kid Cudi) Great mix to hand out to your peeps to bump!

DJ Rumors 3:57 PM - 5 March, 2010
Just wanted you to know, I've been a big fan of your work ever since i've been on this forum and started listening to ya. Even though I'm not into the "hard rap", you transitions are seamless and choice of tracks seem to be ingenious. Also, even though you can scratch extremely well, you seem to pick your spots very articulately and they all sound great! Keep it up and if you ever stream Live on Ustream or another site hit me up on my twitter.com or www.facebook.com .
DJ Michael Basic 8:25 PM - 5 March, 2010
Thanks man. Appreciate the love. I used to do stickam but I don't have all my shit set up to stream anymore...at some point I'll need to set it up again.
DJ Rumors 8:31 PM - 5 March, 2010
ok..kool. Be looking for ya!
Dj-M.Bezzle 9:28 PM - 5 March, 2010
Jean Claude Ades feat. Sam Obernik - Shingaling (SR Remix)



ive never heard that track but that shits jazzy as hell!!!!!
DJ ST 9:37 AM - 7 March, 2010
Loads and loads of editing and creative looping.
Love the theme, love to listen to this.
Good work, MB!

Worked very well last night for our small team as a a soundtrack before hitting the bar.
Lots of "Oh, I get it" -moments.

And yes, I could find some use for that P.Y.T. -transition tool.
Mike B's original or any other cannot be founded around blogosphere.

I guess I'll have to finally learn that Ableton 8...
DCM 10:55 AM - 7 March, 2010
MB that mix was great to listen to. Great work as usual.
Dj_Dropz_ 12:21 PM - 7 March, 2010

Basic, good mix man!

I too have been doing the "Are you that Somebody?" Aaliyah(R.I.P.) chorus line over drake during bedrock at my saturday spot that last month or so, It took awhile before anyone even got it!
dj_KaSE 9:13 PM - 7 March, 2010
Mike, when are you gonna put the intro on there?
DJ Michael Basic 10:17 PM - 7 March, 2010
Before I send it to my pressing company to get pressed onto CD. Still debating what I wanna do for an intro.
DJ Michael Basic 10:17 PM - 7 March, 2010
Thanks for the words everybody...I'm pretty happy with this mix...only thing is there was some stuff I had to leave off of it...only so much you can fit into 80 minutes.

Thanks MB,
waiting for the intro-ed version.
djchrischip 12:52 AM - 10 March, 2010
BASIC>>>>
the can u feel the beat- to feel it transition (mix) tht wasnt on 3 decks?.... so did u drop the can u feel the beat loop into the sampler or how u do it?... because there was some scratching n just didnt get tht transition (mix)
DJ Michael Basic 1:35 AM - 10 March, 2010
No that's actually a track...I think DJ Nova made it...but he takes like 32 bars to get into it and I think that's too long and drawn out, so I load it onto both decks and scratch in the can u feel it part to skip ahead in the track.
gotchuckz 2:07 AM - 10 March, 2010
clean mix. liked the play on words.
Audio1 6:26 PM - 10 March, 2010

dj_KaSE 9:15 PM - 10 March, 2010
He used Serato, thus none of that auto-sync wackness was involved in the making.

@Rumors - My comment was more of a "You can also be creative when DJing" for the newer people who feel they are in a rut as far as what they have learned and how they actually presently DJ.
DJ Michael Basic 9:57 PM - 10 March, 2010
I thought you needed auto sync so you didn't have to spend all that time beatmatching to be creative.

Similar to Bling's...but his is a little too drawn out for my taste...and also, I'm going from the push it/satisfaction mash.

A lot of ppl have been doin the push it to day and nite. i dont know who did it first....haha
