Two Mixes...

[joethelion (made of iron)]

Ok - so yea - I've been away from dirty for a while, blah blah blah

in that time, I also kinda stopped doing any mixes until somewhat recently

this first one is more recent, but is definitely a bit more 'off the cuff.'

I was originally going to do one that was nothing but early/mid 90's atmospheric drum & bass. But at the last minute, I just wasn't feeling like doing that ...so I threw a few 'techno' / minimal / whatever tracks together, and I think it sounds pretty nice (although, I do wish I had switched around a couple of the tracks & increased the dub delay at least at one point...)

both of the mixes are fairly short (just around 30-40 minutes) as they both were done when I had some random free time.

(Grad school is starting back up, and I realized I didn't get enough work done over the summer)

Cheers mate! Will check them out.

Noice. First mix going down smoothly so far...

[joethelion (made of iron)]

thanks!

yea - originally I wasn't sure about sharing it out, but then I figured - that what I thought were these HUGE flaws only seemed that way b/c I was the one doing the mixing

if that makes any sense

[froopy seal]

It does. I as someone not into producing music didn't notice any flaws. Pleasant choice of tracks, too.

Not been around the forums for a few years but I came across a few old mixes from all the old Dirts. Great to see you're still at it make some nice stuff.

Following on Soundcloud now. Amazing what a Lion can do!

thanks! yea - I still occasionally do a mix here and there...
but I've been really busy w/ my MFA program now, so I don't do it that often; plus - I'm really bad about actually uploading stuff.

Like, I did one a while ago - just to listen to while printing, but I don't think I ever got around to actually posting it...

[stimpee]

Both great mixes. Recommended listening. Download links too!

You still in Scotland?

[joethelion]

Glad you like the mixes! I've been really really meaning to actually DO SOMETHING with them, but I haven't had the time...

yup - my program doesn't end until like... May/June

(although I'm back in the States now visiting family over the holiday)

and I'll definitely be making a few more trips to the EU in the next couple of months before my UK Visa expires

oh - btw... I tried uploading another mix, but I (foolishly, I guess) included the track listing, which actually got it blocked! Soundcloud even "knew" when I tried re-uploading it in a lower bitrate (so it'd be a diff file size) - but oh well...
