 | and post it here please. it has come to my attention that no one wants to check
 r40f's thread about this great idea he had and i think it's
 a really cool thing for everyone to get to know more awesome
 music..
 so pick songs from your favourite 2004 albums and put them
 together..if you have any taste in music it's going to be
 probably hard to mix because of variety, but nevermind as
 long as the songs are awesome :-)

 | I'd end up ruining the concept. I would be too tempted to add tracks that are older than 2004. I would get lost
 creating it and i just cant do that. I wouldnt know where to
 start. I think i really should make a mix though.
 
 Is there a file size limit on you send it?

 | there's no need to really mix it, unless you really want to, but you'll know what i mean when/if you hear what i did :D
 
 yousendit file size limit is 1 gb, so if you do it in 192
 kbps should be alright :)

 | i'm listening to it right now and it's awesome so far...  i just wanted to mention that this is the best tom waits song
 i've ever heard!  got to check this album out...
 
 VP - definitely make one - it's fun and a little challenging
 (because the only theme is the year, so lots of different
 styles of music are included).

 | yeah, that mix was pretty fantastic - only a few tracks i didn't particularly care for...  and most of the tracks were
 really good.  nice selections!  looks like i missed a lot of
 good records last year...  :D

 | yeah, 'real gone' is awesome, you should definitely get that one if you like waits! after listening to that mix i made i
 came to conclusion that most of my fav 2004 albums sound
 about the same.. awesome :( haha..but seriously, i might
 have picked to many songs with cheesy female vocals, but
 then again those seem to be my 2004 favourites :)
 
 i should have picked 'with the lights out' but i didn't
 really considered it a 2004 album - my bad :) and also
 there's one album (milk man) by deerhoof missing but i
 couldn't find the cd..appart from that those that i included
 are my fav 2004 albums.
 
 i listened to your mix last night already, but i'll comment
 on it after i hear it again today.

 | I would definately do this for more practice if I had any concept of time... but I don't know what I have that is good
 that was released in 2004, so...
 
 I could practice my skills on making a mix if someone
 suggested the tracklist and helped me get the mp3s,
 though...

 | yeah, i was going to include a deerhoof track, but i got a little bit lazy.
 
 anyway, i'd be a bit surprised if many people enjoy the mix
 i made because it's mostly metal and pop...  don't feel bad
 if you don't dig it...  :)  maybe you'll like a few of the
 songs.

 | hmm... 
 after a quick browse through my stuff, I've decided that I
 may be able to do a short mix, and hopefully it will be
 better quality than my last one, but could anyone give me
 any hints about how I should do transitions better/more
 interesting? Any tricks that I can do or something like
 that?!

 | Top Tips for the budding dj: 
 # I usually mix tracks together where it breaks down. This
 can be any place in the track as long as there is "room" for
 it.
 
 # Avoid mixing singin/rapping over eachother, it sounds
 crap.
 
 # Beatmixing isn't always the answer, you can get a good
 result with tracks that fade out and mix in the other. That
 way you get good dynamics and builds in your mix.
 
 # Trust your intuition
 
 # Have fun. An bored dj makes a boring mix.
 
 ------- # # 2004mix Update # # --------
 I've put together an hour of personal favourites, and I'm
 recording from my minidisc as we speal/write. It will be
 uploaded in a few hours methinks

 Sad.

 | we're not in a hurry :) r40f told me about this last evening and i just did it
 straight up, or else it would surely take me at least
 another week..rather more..
 but, if you don't manage it, then looking forward to your
 2005 mix next year perhaps :)

 | If it wasn't "2004" only I might make an effort to make one of my mixes available so that more people can think
 they're-ok-I-suppose like the couple of people who've been
 brave enough to play them. I can't be bothered to compile
 something from last year only. But no-one will be interested
 and no-one would like them anyway, so I don't really know
 why I'm typing this.
