Thought I’d suggest something that DjForums has, that’s a battle section, where members post a thread where they call out fellow DJ’s to battle with.
It can be 1 on 1 battles or a group battles, ofc by genre, but I thought that for DSF, it could be something like a specific style of bass music, say, 130 dubtechno, 140 dubwise, maybe dungeon, etc… Perhaps also could limit to only releases…
Length could be up to 40mins, or 1hr?
There would be a deadline for submissions, and after that, the thread would be locked.
So when someone accepts a battle, they upload the mix to the mods or someone, me, idk, and then a new thread for voting is made, where all members can vote.
Also, equipment wise, only CDJvs, turntables, 2 deck controllers?
Sorry if it has already been suggested or it already exists, but I thought I’d ask anyways…
And yeah I need tl have a reason to record a mix while I have the equipment that I borrowed lol
…
I would say make it shorter - say a 20 minute mix?
You could get both of those in on the way to work. Or one there and one back.
Keeps things moving along - getting everyone to listen to two hour long mixes…hmm not sure.
(Also, no one call out @faultier cuz you’ll lose. His trainwreck mixes are the shiznit)
I think 10-15 minutes is the perfect amount of time tbh, too hard for people to listen to a bunch of hour long mixes and vote on em properly, everyone would just skim through
On topic, if people are up for doing a mix comp type thing again I’m fully down. 20 minutes max though because listening through a load of hour mixes is long and I don’t usually have a lot of time to listen to that many, let alone record my own
