Lots of new bangers on there. You use vinyl or CDJs? Lots of fresh tunes in this mix.

If I had to guess I would say it was done entirely in software. I know everyone's tastes are different, but this song selection was pretty weak. A lot of your mixes are also abrupt and don't flow at all. There's a lot to be said for song selection and planning. Keep working at it though, it's the only way to get better.

Thanks all. Definitely not a professional, and need more practice. I like to throw mixes together for myself, but like to share them too.

I actually went to beatport and just bought a bunch of new shit, then used Acid Pro to "mix" it together, heh. Some of the later tracks I've had for a while and like them a lot so I just tossed them in there.

Correct. I definitely didn't put any major planning, and most of the mixing was best shot. I usually just load the track in Acid, look for any breakdowns, then mix the next song into that part. Acid is kinda shitty, so sometimes it can be tough to get tracks to flow right.

I'd love to try vinyls, but I already have too many expensive hobbies.

I recently started uploading my mixes to SoundCloud. I use Virtual DJ to mix.
