Nice bro!! 2 hours is a long time haha, don't think I could keep a beat going that long.
I've been DJing a ton lately too though haha, got a TON of great quality music and I just can't help but play with it lol
Yeah I've done about a 3 hourish set (not planned just whatever felt right) at my buddies party back in early Jan so I'm not too worried about 2 hours, although it still is a long time xD
And nice DJing is a ton of fun, when I first got into it I spent $150 on a cheap controller just to see how I liked it... I've now spent around $1200 and planning on spending another $500! Not the cheapest hobby/occupation.
Congratulations on the mod spot - Folley / Laugh
Ahh yes I totally forgot to congratulate the two! Good job you two I've already seen both of you doing your job well.
Hey guys, you should let me know how this mix is
Lay it on me, hell your criticisms don't even have to be constructive.
It's my first non-Freestyle, so it's actually good lmao.. I think you'd like it too Laugh, it's got a bit of Tech/trance in it. I'm planning on giving it to an old love for her birthday so I want to make sure it's perfect lol

Ahh I see you were quick to hope on Headhunterz remix of Zedd's Clarity
Nice to see more people using mixcloud, it's a great place to upload your mixes for FREE and timestamping is an excellent feature.
Now on with criticism, your transitions seem nice and smooth no obvious trainwrecking to my ear. I like the mainstream hardstyle bootlegs, give it a more recognizable sound to most people (Not that I only like mainstream, as you've said before if it sounds good I'll listen to it!) but you still kept some lesser known songs in there which is good because it helps get producers names out there.
The one thing I noticed that I would have done differently is how you handled the last transition, you cut out the bass on the first track before the bass from the second track picked up so you had about a 2-3 second stretch with little to no bass which kind of sounded awkward to my ear. I personally would have cut the bass out of the first song once the bass in the second song kicked in.
Overall it's a good mix and I enjoyed it. A few questions, what equipment are you using (if you are) and what software are you using for your mixes?
P.S. I followed you
