Promo sets aren't necessarily sets that rock the dance floor. A DJ might have made the set geared towards more chilled out setting.
As for this DT set, I had to adjust the volume on my mp3 player many times because the levels were terrible, beatmatching was sloppy at times and track selection was ok, but nothing spectacular. Not to mention his 'tricks' sounded mostly off and made the set sound awkward in general.
That's just my opinion. If you like trainwrecks in mixing, hey, good for you. Might as well just hire a monkey to put in cds because for most people, occassional slip ups in transitions is acceptable, but really noticeable ones multiple times is just sloppy.
A good mixing without a good track selection is worth nothing I agree, but most of us hold a PROFESSIONAL DJ to a minimum standard of technical skills, which generally incl. consistent mixing. |

Don't get too excited they use ableton, it beat matches for you, however i don't believe there is anything wrong with ableton for recording sets i just cannot stand to see dj's using it in clubs boring as hell for me..
Also about beatmatching being so easy and unimportant that's bs, it does take a good ammount of skill to keep every single mix ferfect and tight while the programming, eq, set structure, and creativity being tight as well. |

Yeah, I guess that when people like Bas, Clovis, RJT and the rest of the "crybaby DJs" are consistently being booked to play out, that means they don't know how to rock a crowd. :conf:

And yeah, I guess all of those photos of Bas, Clovis, RJT and the rest using CDJs in a club, or the promo mixes that are clearly on CDJs must mean that they use Ableton all the time. :conf: |
