Alright enough argueing. I'm getting the Pioneer cdj-200, I'm just gonna get a set of them because they have all I need and I can get them on eBay for about 105-120 a piece. Which is hella cheap. So when that's all said and done I'll probably drop about 250 bucks on the decks... what mixer should I get!? I've got like 650 bucks here so about 400 extra dollars for the mixer and anything else that might be good for me.

Also, I've been mixing on a makeshift (well it's a trial version) program for a couple days now called Virtual DJ, and it's fun, I've made about 3 mixes that I find fairly good. But the thing is is that when I mix I want to alter the music a lot, or at least make it to where when people listen to it they will know that my mix is different from the original songs.

For instance, I mixed a song by Styles and a song by Arkitech the other day together and it didn't sound much different from the original versions of the songs. They sounded good together I'm not gonna lie, but it wasn't all that amazing. I wish I could somehow/somewhere upload these little mixes to show you guys what I mean. I mean I need tips.

But all in all, when I actually get a set up, I think it'll be much easier to mix on. =]]

Wait no guys. Here our my mixes. Give me input I NEED destructive criticism, but keep in mind that it's my first time ever mixing and it was done on a program I wasn't familiar with. Anything and everything is basicly an experiment. But I still had fun trying =]

This is the latest one I have done it's Styles Vs. Arkitech. I probably like this one the most. It's a fairly short mix (2 songs)

Here's another one (MY FIRST MIX EVER) I added some random DnB to some ATB. I don't really like this one at all, but here it is anyways.

and lastly I have a 9 minute mix I through together of some random hardcore and happy hardcore. I don't feel like listing the track names if you haven't noticed baha. But this one I HATE. I messed up a lot, it was just basicly having fun and seeing what comes out of that. But here it is anyways again.

Ok so give me tips and whatnot.

THANKS
