This week, I re-listened to my last recorded set and was pretty disappointed with the poor beatmatching in some transitions. It was frustrating, especially since I’d already shared it with lots of friends! Determined to improve, I decided to try again.
I started with an all-vinyl set. It went great for the first 20 minutes, but then things fell apart, so I stopped recording. I kept experimenting and eventually switched to digital. I noticed a slight delay between the speakers and the cue, so I mixed with one ear out and one in, abut adjust with both tracks in headphones this time.
Later, while relaxing on the sofa, I still wanted to record. I set up, dug into tracks by one of my favorite producers, Hostox, and played almost all of his songs—except the last one, oddly enough.
