Tweaked Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 One of my Pandemic Projects was teaching myself to mix music sets. I started screwing around on Youtube finding music tracks that could be paired together and using multiple windows to mix these tracks together to build a set. It was surprisingly effective although with limitations. Since I couldn't manipulate the speed of the records on Youtube, my track selection was limited and veered more toward ambient music. Which was somewhat fitting for our pandemic times. I finally decided to acquire Traktor, a DJ music program, which allows me to mix and record music. First up is a demo which is mostly ambient music: 27 Minutes of Bliss Second is Novas, my first completed set featuring ambient, neoclassical, with some more upbeat progressive house and breaks: Novas I suggest listening with good headphones after a couple glasses of wine or other intoxicant of your choice.

zgast Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Also great for working in the office (pre-intoxicant, unfortunately). Very cool. My wife got into this for a while and ended up taking a class in Bethesda here: DJ Lessons & Classes - Beat Refinery | Bach to Rock She loved the classes and spent hours mixing and putting things together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweaked Posted August 16, 2023 Author Share Posted August 16, 2023 My latest mix: Contagio A trip through ambient, melodic, techno, with a little neo-classical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweaked Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 After seeing Refik Anadol's AI installation at MoMA, I was checking out his website and screen recorded the audio to his piece Quantum Memory. I looped it three times and then added sections of Marc Romboy's Counting Comets Part 2. Mixed on Traktor.
