DJ 1 had a much better executed idea. DJ 2 didn’t really use the song? Think it coulda shown through more

DJ1: DOPEEEE intro. Great combo with Just Listen haha. Love the tabla/dhol you added. Hit was nice! Only critique is that the vibes were very different with the Harry Potter and Sidhu, but dope nonetheless.


DJ2: Lol at Brampton Grand. I didn’t love the pitched down Harry Potter.


Vote DJ 1

DJ 1 that beginning Harry Potter sample with Sidhu intro was sick.

Dj 2: I didn't really feel the mix but that intro had me done ?

HP Is tough to mix cause the raag is not very common but good job to DJ 1 for making it work for the most part.

DJ 2 I didn't much of the HP theme in the mix. Brampton grand intro was funny though

My vote: DJ 1

DJ 2 - where was the HP incorporation? I can't get a sense on where or if you used it - perhaps you used it in the background, but this HP soundtrack has a very unique sound which I feel if you mess with a lot, only retracts from the creating a truly blending into a Punjabi mix.
