Ableton Forum

I'm doing a weekly mix released every Monday.
It's more like a weekly radio show than an all out mash-fest, and I don't typically stick to one genre.
I've included links & tracklists to the first three, below, to give you an idea of what you can expect...

Looks really interesting... downloading now...

Just coming to the end of part 3. Some of it not really my taste, but interesting mix to hear anyway and I really liked the middle section. Nice smooth mixing too. Only one where the tempo adjustment was too drastic I thought was 16 -> 17, Q-Tip to NoW, but apart from that, smooth. Billy Preston track was ace! Cheers. Looking forward to hearing parts 1 & 2... Keep it coming...

Edit: and Goodbye Rocky! Good choice!

Edit2: and +1 for including the track listing in the podcast info - very useful.

Thank you, I appreciate the detailed comments!
I hope you become a regular listener...

Halfway through part 1 - really nice. Much more to my taste - ah, Aphex Twin

Am subscribed to the podcast...

Edit: that mix right at the end of part 1, from Thievery Corp to David Byrne is great! Like the whole mix. Again, very smooth whole way through. There's a bit though around 21 minutes where, I think it's Ulrich Schnauss with something else and it really clashes in terms of pitch. In terms of elements and timing it's really good, but that particular transition is really hard on the ears due to the ptich clash between the bassline and the pads.

Oh, and really love the vocal samples right at the ends of the podcasts!

...and the winner is... Episode 2!

Thought this was a really fun and varied mix of tunes - always interesting, creative selection of mixes. Excellent!

Again, thank you so much for your detailed comments!

I'm psyched that you're enjoying these, and I'll try to keep the revolting pitch mis-matches to a minimum.

I won't litter the forum with updates any longer (if you want it, by now you know where to get it), I just wanted to announce that I've got another episode completed & posted.

I hope you enjoy...

Hi again - I've been downloading each one - really nice stuff and I think the mixing is getting better and better and the little talking samples between the songs are getting quirkier and more intriguing - I'm keeping my subscription - keep em coming!

Hey ... I'm glad to hear you're still enjoying the selections!

I've been tossing around the idea of changing things up a bit by releasing heavily mixed show rather than just selections ... I guess similar to my first two podcast releases. That type of mix would take me longer to put together, though, so I'm trying to decide between sticking with the weekly schedule or spending a bit more time and really going nuts...

We'll see...
