Mix: #101608
Progressive House. I know I bitched about hating House music in a previous post, but this is different. Progressive House has many of the things Im looking for, its got the heavy bass line, its got the melodic electro-ish synths (sometimes it gets a bit to Trancey for my taste). I think the thing about House that I dont like is that most of it doesnt have a soild bass. Its all so disco-synth and horn driven that it gets on my nerves. Although I did just discover some House I do like, Mike Milk and Steve Sugar. Anyway I digress. Back to the subject at hand, this mix is pretty mellow, its good background music while your doing something else. Running time is 39 minutes and 39 seconds containing 9 tracks. Im still following the Harmonic Mixing method of picking songs by key.

Im really tired of mixing Traktor with the keyboard and mouse its a real pain in the ass. At first I had wanted to just get a regular midi-DJ Controller Mixer like the Vestax VC-100 but I kept reading reviews that said the nobs were really small and Ive got big fingers so I thought that probably wouldnt work too well for me. Then I saw the YouTube video of Deadmau5 vs. the Xone:3d and I really wanted one of those. But it turns out that the Xone:3d is like $2700, a little bit out of my price range right now (there are website that sell it for cheaper, but its still pricey). So then I saw the Xone:96 I thought that was the one, but then I realized that it was serious overkill for what I wanted to do. So then I saw the Xone:42 and that was the one. I felt like Goldie Lox in a mixer store, this mixers too expensive, this mixers got too many nobs, but this Xone:42, this ones just right.
Here are some videos of it in action Watch this guy use the mixer to mix things:
