[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]My vote: DJ 2[/font]
[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Just getting my vote in before tomorrow's deadline! I honestly wasn't a huge fan of either mix, but I gave it to DJ 2 for trying to push things to new level. DJ 1's mix was too simple for my taste. It was executed relatively well, but when I listen to the original song, I didn't notice a whole lot that was added in to really show off your mixing talent. I would have liked if DJ 2 kept more of the original song in the mix rather than just bring in sound clips from other places. For example, I would have preferred to have the segment from 0:24-0:34 because I don't feel it enhanced your mix all that much. You could have used those additional 10 seconds to bring in more of the original song and work on modifying that to sound "cool" in various ways.[/font]
[font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I'm glad that both DJ's really watched their overall mix length and kept things short in length (actually both were almost 15 seconds below the total "guideline" of 1 min). You both still had a bit of leeway in terms of extending the overall length of your mix. I feel that keeping things concise and figuring what to include & what not to include is part of the "challenge" so you guys both did a good job in that aspect. Keep it up![/font]
