The Monday Mixdown #7 - It's a Rave Dave!


This installment of The Monday Mixdown features more ravey content than usual. It's 27 minutes of electro, bassline, fidget and jackin' house.

I think the live recording went rather well this week. A couple small details need some work, but it's definitely bangin' from beginning to end. The first Rampage track comes in a little too loud, and the mix from Stab to Washout is a bit dodgy. And is it just me or does Alarm Bells seem out of place? I love that song, but I find it hard to give a nice place in a set.

One other issue with the mix is this weird buzz in the background. I think something is up with my computer/DJ equipment setup. I'm going to investigate further. I'm pretty sure the inputs I used this time around are a little different, that may be the case. I'll keep my eye on it.

Last thing, I haven't been producing any music for a while now. The last thing I worked on was a few months before I started this site. However, I always wanted to edit something together with Van Halen's 'Hot For Teacher', to use for a set intro. I finally got around to fitting it in using some simple editing. It's pretty hype, I can't wait to test it out live.

P.S. Go over to Beatport and pick up Hervé's 'Who Da Champ' which was released today. It's bizzzonkers.
