Mix 1: Wow. The only critique I can give is the outro is unnecessarily long/drawn out. Otherwise... please finish this mix! I LOVED the concept and instantly had a smile on my face when I hit play. The breakdown(ish) part at 0:46 onwards was sick. I think this was my favorite of this week's challenges.
Mix 2: I enjoyed this mix. I thought from 0:21 onwards was great. I wasn't a big fan of the intro. I think that needs work. In most other weeks, I think you would've won..
My vote: Mix 1

wow, strong matchup
DJ 1: Great mix, definitely make a longer version for us! Rail Gaddi is one of those classic songs that's been remixed a ton of times, hard to match listener expectation and keep it fresh but I thought you balanced well. I would have liked a little more brightness in the vocals though, it seemed a bit muted but with old songs it's hard to make happen since it depends so much on file quality and version. I'm guessing it just wasn't happening, but if you do make a longer mix maybe try to bring the vocals more clearly, it sounds muddled in the midrange, a slight cut in the lower vocal range with a slight boost in the higher range will make it sparkle I think!
DJ 2: Solid mix, but some questionable choices of sample drops kind of bring the mix down a bit. a better transition into the breakdown at the end would have stood you apart and maybe even won the challenge. Just focus a little more on the overall vision and pacing next time and I think your mixes will stand out for sure. great job!
Good work both you, but vote goes to DJ 1
