[PODCAST] SYSTEMATIC 004 / 005 / 006
Apr 16th
Here are the latest updates on ‘Systematic’!
I’ve added episodes 004 – 006 online, and each mix offers something a little different. 004 & 006 are both a little deeper, and reflect the tunes I play when I’m on a early or closing set at my Flipside gigs. the 005 episode is from 2008, and just something I whipped up at home.
I’m currently working on getting the mixes onto iTunes, as a central point for listeners to subscribe and download each release as they arrive. Once it’s approved, I’ll post another update with the appropriate links!
So kick back and enjoy the mixes, and stay tuned, as I have episode 007 in the works, which will be the first mix of 2010 as well!

[PODCAST] Systematic 001 / 002 / 003
Feb 24th
This week I present to you the first three issues of ‘Systematic’, a podcast series I’ve set up from the previous concepts I originally had. I’ll be releasing all the original issues in the coming weeks, before I kick off with some brand new and lengthier mixes.
The first issue is a recording from my first guest mix on KissFM’s ‘The Walk of Shame’, aired back in 2007. The show is still running on Sunday mornings, 9am – 11am in Melbourne, and you can hear the show on 87.6 / 87.8 / 87.9 / 88.0 or online at their website!
The second issue is a few of my charted tracks at the time, which tuned out to be a great little mix in the end.
Finally, the third mix was a test and review of the Behringer BCD2000 digital mixer. You can check out my review just under the 003 tracklisting.
I hope you enjoy the issues! Stay tuned for more issues of ‘SYSTEMATIC’!

BCD2000 REVIEW
The Behringer BCD2000 is a nice little budget mixer for those who just want to have fun with it (it has definately saved me loads of blank cds when i want to have a casual mix at home), and for the more professional use, there are a lot of kinks to work out, including sensitivity with the controls, however as some have pointed out, it can be done.
Just starting out with it, I found it slightly annoying at first with the sensitivity issues (You’ll hear the last mix I do cuts in on the bass quite quickly although the knob was only shifted slightly), but I’ve heard that they can be mapped accordingly which is nice.
I hope there is an adjustment to handle the pitch slides, as the bpm would change anywhere from .1 to .3 on each click. This tiny problem can be a hassle when you’re mixing as the tracks can easily come out of time, but with a pitch bend included on the mixer along with the jogwheels, this can be easily tackled.
The inclusion of additional knobs and buttons for effects is an absolute bonus. You can download plugins from the net and have an absolute blast with it.
You also have a range of options of software, which will cost extra to purchase, but you also get some software bundled with the mixer to play with.
All in all, a great purchase for those starting out!

[MIX] Summer Lust 2008 – CD2 (2008)
Feb 8th
I hope you all enjoyed the first part of the Summer Lust 2008 release. I now have the second disc up for grabs whilst I’m working on my latest mixes.
Disc 2 is a little different from the first, it sounds more tech, with tracks from Dataworx, Gui Boratto and Kriece for example, but is still very melodic.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this part! Feedback is always welcome, and stay tuned!

[MIX] Summer Lust 2008 – CD1 (2008)
Jan 26th
Well, I’m back from my trip overseas and with another classic mix for grabs. Summer Lust is a series I started in 2007, to represent a set of tracks that I have played over the year.
Unfortunately I missed out on the 2009 edition because of my trip, but I may still release it in the coming weeks. So in the meantime, enjoy the first disc of my 2008 edition, which was voted one of the best mixes on DJForums.com!

[MIX] Into the Storm (2005)
Oct 27th
Another week, and another mix has been uploaded to DJmarkMajor.net! This is another mix dating back to 2005, during a cold evening where I decided I’d try and slightly theme my mix with how it looked outside. It’s got a few of my all-time favorite tracks in here too.
Unfortunately the only copy I had was an already separated play list on a CD. The mix has been compressed into a zip file, and will play consecutively with no stop gaps.
Hope you enjoy the mix! Comments and feedback welcome.

[MIX] INTERMISSION 004 (2009)
Oct 7th
Here is another mix that I never got the chance to upload at the time.
It’s basically a rundown of a main set that I would usually play at an Intermission party. It’s similar in sound to my Flipside mix, but has a harder beat that is geared to the Intermission party atmosphere.
So enjoy the listen, and please feel free to leave a comment!
