Bump from the dead!

THis guy!!! I actually got this on CD in my car because it wouldn't fit on my ipod :D

[dlove]

Yep, top mix. Also, note the thorough tracklist, artwork and all-round This Is How It Should Be Done, kids! :D

[Sigma]

THis guy!!! I actually got this on CD in my car because it wouldn't fit on my ipod :D
Are you sure? lol. It will fit on an iPod, but it's too long to fit on a CD.

@dlove - Thanks! :)

[BuddyUK]

On the DL, old school FTW :)

Ah, fair play man!

Thanks for checking it out folks.

I got this when you had it on djf 1.0. Still listen to it every now and then. If you haven't listened to this yet, then do yourself a favor and click play.

:tup::tup::tup::tup::tup::tup: 6/5
Not that my rep counts for much, but I need to spread it before giving you more.
This is an excellent mix and I understand you put a lot of work into making it. It's definitely one of the best mixes I've heard from any DJF member.

[BuddyUK]

^^^^

Been making copies on CDs to give to my older mates too listen to, had it on constant rotation on my ipod all this week, amazing shit.

Bump from the dead works. Is this the same as the one you had posted on DJF 1.0 re a certain year of hip hop? or a new one? I can't remember what year that one was for.

[Sigma]

Sean, yeah, this was posted on DJF 1.0.

Thanks a lot for checking it out folks! It's really appreciated.

[Sean]

Yeah as soon as it started I noticed it is the same, it's a great mix I have it in my car still ;) Listen to it every now and then.

[Sigma]

Cheers mate!

[Rek_Aviles]

Heard this set a few times already Sigma. Very clean well made set.

I will try to burn this to a CD is that's cool with you. My cousin, when he retired, gave me a lot of these records you played here, so i'm sure he'll love this mix.

[Sigma]

Thanks man! And yeah, of course you can burn a CD. Do what you like with it (apart from sell it :P).

[Tote]

What do you mix on?
Very nice Mix. Thanks

Very nice Mix. Thanks

Thanks a lot man!

This mix was made with 1 turntable (STR8-150), an Ecler Hak 310 mixer with Pro X Fade, records and Serato. All the beatmatching was done manually, but the mix was built up in stages in Adobe Audition so that I could add effects, layer multiple tracks, cut up more than 1 sample at the same time and so on.

For regular live mixing I use the same setup, but obviously 2 decks. Oh, and I've switched from Serato to Traktor now. HERE (http://www.djforums.com/forums/showthread.php?662-Sigma-80s-Funk-Mix) is a live mix I did if you want to check it out.

It's nothing special - just labels - but I'd never uploaded a mix to YouTube before so I thought I'd give it a go.

[Nonyas]

nice one

[peterwo2e]

love it, thank you:tup::tup::tup::tup:

[Sigma]

Thanks for checking it out man!

[Sigma]

5,000 plays bump. :D

[MrB]

Very nice. I'm impressed with all of this old school hip hop. Can't remember when was the last time I've heard some
of these.

[alexreedDJ]

Great sounding mix :) downloading the split version atm. Are the tracks in the "split" version still mixed into each other, or is it the full track?

[Sigma]

Thanks for checking it out fellas!

The split version is the single file version split into separate tracks, so yeah, it's still mixed.

EDIT - You both got a new rep star. :D
