Here's my first mix:
Name: DJ Creator - My First Mix Vol.1 - Listen & Enjoy
Bitrate: 192kb/s
Time: 59:44
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mnkzrytdqtz Feedback appreciated. Let me know what you think, and be constructive in your criticism. Post here or send me a PM if you want the track list. P.S. couldn't find any other name for me so my dj nick will probably be changed

OMG!! you use one my tracks!!! thats so exiting!!!, I mean its the first time I hear one of my tracks in someone's mix! THANKS!
*edit*
ok, I heard all the mix, ( I'm not a DJ so I dont know that much about mixing ;p) however I can notice that some of the tracks are not actually mixed, but just placed one after the other, the change is too sudden, ex: 02:28.
the mix between track 2 and 3 is better, at leats there is a beat matching.
try to mix letting about 30 seconds or so of both tracks sounding together.
also you should try to avoid using tracks "by" DJ Pulse, Dj rankin, Dj cammy, etc, as they are not very welcome here because they rip off other people's songs....
and as said below. "You can only go up"

Honestly, if it's your first mix I would think you would want people to be as harsh as possible.
You can only go up, and you don't get there from people saying "Oh it was good...", then you bring out the same type of quality every time.
I'll d/l it in a few.

Hi, I've not downloaded this yet as I'm not on my computer. I wil do it later. I would just like to know how you posted a mix on this site. I've got loads of mixes I'd like to post, form right back when I started (1995) up to present day. I've got happy hardcore, drum n bass, jungle and trance.
Cheers, Toby

The first mix always sounds good :) (not downloaded yours tho)
I remember when I was so happy I made my first mix, that it was so good. Nowadays when I re-listen to it, I can hear all the misstakes. Might not have been alot of beatmatch missing, but rather volume problems

Upload it to a file hosting site like http://www.mediafire.com, then make a new topic with a link to it - simple!

Like someone said upload it to a file hosting website such as; mediafire, sendspace, 4shared, megaupload - there's loads. Start a new thread, post a link to the file but dont include a tracklist as there not allowed on here - you could PM them to people who want them or upload that to the file hosting site and post a link to that aswell. Hope this helps and i look forward to hearing your mixes mate 
rosin007: Will listen to the mix when i get a chance. Heard a little bit of it so far and, from what ive heard, you need to practise. First mix so its not gonna be perfect i know, but you need to learn about structure and timing of tracks. 4 beats to a bar etc. Also beat-matching. The former you should pick up relatively quickly if you listen to the songs and realise where a new track should come in, try counting beats. The latter - beat-matching - will take much longer. Just down to practice eventually you'll be able to match beats in a matter of seconds. Dunno how much sense that made lol but i hope it helps, ill give the mix a proper listen later mate.

Yeah I know, a lot of times I forgot to sync the tunes also. Well, ravine made a video about the beats and stuff, I'll have a look at that again if its still up.
@ acidfluxx, TL sent

The first song ended too sudden, so I didn't realize and I was supprised. I can tell I should have practiced a little bit more before posting a mix. Thank you all, you really helped me.
