Impressive!
I really liked the set! it was very interesting, no anthems or anything like that. Things chugged along quite nicely.
You beatmatching i would give 5 out of 5. After a year of spinning, you are getting up there my friend. Great job, you would embarase a lot of DJs in Calgary for sure.
Track selection was very interesting. Nothing really groundbreaking; but no songs were bad, all were trance jems. I just had a little problem with logical progression in the set, it was kinda all over the place. But good nevertheless. Solid 4 out of 5.
Transitions were descent. Short but pretty sweet. Its always better to make a quick transition than a bad one. No doubt. I would like to hear your mixing technique though, i think i could help you make it better. So for transition i would give you 3.5 out of 5. They were not as good as they could have been. And i think you know it too.
But overall we are all pretty impressed. I have played with a lot of people and listened to a lot of DJs. All i can tell you is that you get better with time and i was very suprised to hear that you have been spinning only for a year. One year is a short time in the grand scale of thiings, and with time you will only get better.
Also listen to your own mixes and remember what you were doing during the mix, if you dont like what you hear, mix it till your ears bleed but polish it to the max. Remeber, it took the likes of AVB, Tiesto and PVD years and years to perfect their craft, some have been playing for 15 years (like Paul Van Dyk), so invest the time and energy, nothing ever goes to waste.
Keep them coming,
