This week was a fairly quick mix. A lot of good singing. I had 7 finalists including 2 remixes of Toni Braxton’s ‘Coping’, but narrowed it down to 4. Two things stood out to me with this mix. In transitions, I’d line things up, but kinda get caught in a point where the outgoing song would drop elements of the beat before the incoming one would add new elements in. Hence the name ‘Whitespace’ for this mix.
The 2nd is that this is the first mix that I actually used a loop. I needed two more bars to line up ‘Coping’, so if you listen carefully, you’ll hear the first bar repeat 3 times. This is week two of the course I am taking. It mentioned loops in one of the tutorials, but we cover them next week. That gave me enough to feel like testing it. I think it turned out well.
Also, this was the first mix where I used a master tempo to set all tracks to 125 BPM. Enjoy!
