I usually listen to these at work. Will try to get through these tomorrow.

In my mind, mix number one is the clear winner here. Number 2 was a close second, but I think in the end, number 1 had the best flow, and the track selection was the most original.

To whoever recorded mix number 3, I'd say let your tracks breathe a little bit more. I keep seeing trap DJs post the number of songs they use in their mixes when they try to get people to listen, as if cramming in as many tracks as possible within a given time window is something to brag about. Unless you're doing some crazy turntablism or controllerism and dropping samples and loops creatively and unexpectedly, it's not that impressive to mix a bunch of tracks-back-to-back. There were a lot of forced transitions that sounded way too busy, and I felt like there were a few tracks that you cut off just as I was getting into them.

Number four did a little bit of a better job with that, but I think there were still a few premature cuts that took away from the flow of the mix.

Good effort though to all of you!

So here are my thoughts

mix 1 - really enjoyed this mix. the track around 10:40 was a little cheesy sounding compared to the rest which was nice n gangst. flow was legit the whole way through tho. enough tracks to keep me engaged but not too many.

mix 2 - also enjoyed this one. clean throughout, hella close to mix 1 in crispness. i just found this one didn't quite have the same impact mix one had.

mix 3 - pretty clean. most tracks i think, but somehow more boring than 1 or 2. tracks just didn't do it for me.. too rnb'ish

mix 4 - solid mix. maybe not as smooth as 1 or 2, the transition around 915 was an example of a weird flow change where it went from one vibe to a totally different one and didn't quite work. not a bad mix tho.

so my vote goes to mix 1. all were solid though, but 1 did pretty much everything right

can i get the tracklist for mix 1?
