I recently rented a DAT machine (very 80's) and transfered some old DAT's that had studio production on them from when I also did production. I found a glorious medley I thought you would enjoy. This one is all 1987 club hits that I was spinning at the time. I now do digital editing and it's funny to think that I originally put this together on a Tascam 4 track by just overlaying vinyl records and using a razor blade and tape to physically cut and edit it together! Oh my did it take a lot of time!!!!! It's so much easier now.

Wow! That's a lot of songs. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work! I can just imagine how time consuming it must've been doing it as explained back then. I like mixes. Nice initiative of you.
ReplyDeleteKenneth
The song selection took me right back to 1470 West in Dayton, OH where I was DJing circa 1987. Wish I still had some of my mixes from back then LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great blog!
Maxx Mooney aka DJ Maxxx
Whoa. Definately a very cool mix. How I wish to find megamixes like this nowadays. Those mixes from the 80s and 90s are still the best, like MaxMix, Bolero Mix. You can't imagine how many hours have DJ Lollipop used to make this mix! Considering the techniques that was being used. Sometimes I think today's technology is to be blamed for making bad mixes. Just wondering is DJ Lollipop still making mixes like these with current chart topping tunes?
ReplyDeleteCheers, Leon
