Q: HOW ARE YOUR DATTRAX HOUSE MIXES ARRANGED HERE?
A: THERE ARE THREE "SETS" HERE. "TRACKS" WITHIN EACH SET ARE ACTUALLY FULL LENGTH MIXES, NOT SINGLE TRACKS/ SONGS. THE SETS ARE ARRANGED FROM SOFTER FEEL (TOP SET) TO A MEDIUM FEEL (MIDDLE SET) TO A HARDER FEEL (BOTTOM SET). WELL... HARDER FOR US, RELATIVE TO WHAT WE PLAY, NOT HARD COMPARED TO MOST ELECTRONIC MUSIC TODAY.
MINI BIO: dattrax is Jim and Dat, Best Friends for almost two decades, DJ Duo and House Fiends! From Toronto, Ontario, Canada!
We only listen to, play house music or anything that would sound good mixed with it.
Come enjoy our passion and please comment after listening to share with us and other visitors the feelings you got from listening to one of the mixes. You are the inspiration.
from Full DJ Bio: "...I was in love with house and DJing when I realised that it wasn't music in the sense of Mozart, but a form of self expression- participating in making a musical collage. Like a musical cut and paste. You get to pick your favourite songs, how fast or slow, or how long you want to play it, which part of the song you want to highlight, whether you want to cut it up or layer it, whether you want the feel to be smooth or charging, whether you want... The combinations are endless w/ house music, and that much fun!"
Just so that you know that we are giving you our best as far as time, energy and love...
We only buy 8-12 vinyl records for every 100 records we listen to. Jim & I have probably bought over 30crates of house each over the years- that's over 6000 records! We only buy
15-35 tracks for every 700-1000 mp3's that we listen to. Sometimes less.
Finally, we only end up playing 80% (or less) of what we buy because it has to give us goosebumps, make us say 'WOW' or make us put our fists in the air when listening to a track and sometimes after you buy, you decide that you don't like the track as much.
SIDENOTE: ALL MIXES ARE EITHER DONE WITH ALL CDS OR ALL VINYL, WITH
CD/ VINYL TURNTABLES & A MIXER, NOT DONE IN A COMPUTER OR WITH A
COMPUTER AND MIDI CONTROLLER. WHEN WE DO IN THE FUTURE USE COMPUTERS
AND MIDI CONTROLLERS, WE WILL MARK THOSE MIXES.
PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS IF YOU LIKE ANY OF OUR MIXES, BECAUSE YOU ARE THE INSPIRATION. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR COMMENTING.
