Am I the only one who hasn't spotted any love for Lil Sandhu? I mean this guy literally tore up dance floors all over with his amplifier dhol mix, not to mention other sick dance numbers. I will say that a lot of his work sounds similar (sometimes too much so) but I guess that's something we call the dj's "style".

DJ Hans from the bay area has some clean mixes as well and I"m sure he can slap a 15 minute set with some insane beats too!

wow thanks guys for all of your opinions.

all the djs named are great at what they do.

i'm going to have to listen to everyone's stuff who is listed on here and figure out different unique style. i want this mixtape to capture and keep the attention of people. Not something you will get bored of listening to but can tolerate hearing it over and over.

this is going to be tough.

By Sargam, I meant the one and only Sargam Sethi mashin up the AEG mixes.

I always forget his name, but dude that makes BMW's mixes.

Jason is another great BC talent in my mind, and I know others can agree.

And I have no idea how mah dude up here in norcal has not been mentioned...GSingh, another highly talented mixer.
Theres a difference between Mixers and DJ's bro. Point in case: I am a mixer, not a DJ. You dont hear me put out cd's of blended tracks, dance mixes, etc. I dont create full song mixes, and I haven't any from jason, nor sargam, nor sunpreet.

We MIX, that is we create dancable music sets, so theyre filled to the brim with effects, noises, chopped lyrics, etc. etc... You wouldn't necessarily play it at a club. Not saying any of the guys i named dont make dj sets, i'm just saying they don't come to mind for it.
I know that brochacho. And the case i was trying to make was, getting these, well known, highly skilled mixers an opportunity to play with something other than strictly team mixes. They all have the talent (YOU included, only reason i didnt say you was because of med school), If they can make 7-8 min mixes with so many sound effects and pitch changes, im sure they would brew up a nice 15 minute mixtape for our ears to enjoy during the summer.

yeah i figured.

Wasnt really directed at you, more so that people in general knew the difference and so that fresh could figure out what he was looking for.

Agreed though, some of those people could prob make some dope dj sets.

and you right... med schools officially owning me

@envy- i agree with what you said about making team mixes and possibly transitioning into just a 15 minute set but honestly bhangra competition mixes are not made to listen to in general i believe. the effects and all the crazy stuff and flow is completely different at times and shit just comes out of nowhere. lol. its made to perform to. it does take a different skill set to make the latter.

This may or may not go for others but I actually like being surprised by the song selection. The feeling of hearing a non-cliche song in a mix is always good. If a mixtape is full of popular stuff, I don't get as excited personally. But don't get me wrong, a good mixtape has a few or more mainstream songs, it must to be successful, but try to incorporate original and unfound music. For example: DJ sonu did a remix of turi jaandi nu pechaan leynde ahh. It took me like 3 weeks to find the original of that song, same with 2nyce's Nachdi to hille tharti (well a coupe of hours for that one) but you get my point. It's nice to discover music through mixtapes rather than being suffocated with mainstream. :) Just a couple of cents. :)

nowhere is he asking about song selection for the mixtape ... he's asking if we can post the DJ's best work or what people deem their most favorite track so that he can get a feel for that DJ.

ex: me posting Kawan by DSB above because i feel it shows amazing ability or unique characteristics that set him apart from other DJ's, or some people would post his miss pooja track cuz its deemed the most popular / favorite.

Oops. Sorry for the mis-interpretation. I thought he was asking for people's fav songs lol.
regardless, my statement still stands. :)
