Its getting on a year since I started gathering tracks for the last member mix. So I'm thinking it's time to get the ball rolling on a new one. Once again I'm probably going to do it at the turn of the year, so this is an early heads up so you have plenty of time to put something together.

I'll put together a better post with some rules and guidelines in a couple of days, but in the meantime it'd be good to know if anyone is up for contributing?

You must:-

1. Send the track via Soundcloud private message to me. I don't want Subsekt PM's unless you really have a good reason- they sometimes get lost in the ether and my inbox fills up too quickly. My Soundcloud profile is easily found in my sig.
2. A 320kbps mp3 is highly preferred. WAV is ok as long as you host somewhere with quick download speeds.
3. No more than 3 tracks per person.
4. Send me your tracks in 1 message if you can. Don't drip-feed them to me as I'll lose track of what you sent me and when.
5. "Master" your tracks. No one expects pro quality, but levels too low for my mixer gain to compensate for aren't helping your tracks to be picked. Obviously, don't squash the fuck out of them either. Check the sticky in the hole for tips on how to do this if you're not sure.
6. Please use this thread rather than PM's to me for questions, so everyone can see the answer.
7. Please include a short paragraph about yourself and a link to your artist page (Soundcloud/Bandcamp etc).
8. If your artist name is different to your Subsekt username, please let me know!
9. Please ensure your files are tagged. Artist and track title are enough.
10. Your username must not be red by the time the submission process closes.


Optionally:-


1. Include sensible intro's and outro's for mixing or an easily loopable section. This will be beat-matched on turntables (and my mixing style is generally a long blend), so timing shenanigans or very short tracks are just minimising your chances of being included. Anything doing this would have to be outstanding to be picked.
2. If you're sending more than 1 track, try and make them as diverse as you can within your own style. I don't want 20 dub techno tracks from 1 person.
3. Related to no. 2: I encourage different styles and bpm's. Obviously, the more out-there it is, the less chance it will feature. People who don't make techno at all are still encouraged to submit something.
4. Loops and DJ tools are fine if you can't do a "full" track. Please master them though.
5. You have about 3 months to submit something, I strongly prefer you make something especially for this mix!


Assurances:-

1. If your track has been signed or is going to be released, you can submit it without fear that I will upload it to every torrent site known to man. Your music is completely safe with me and I will not use it for any purpose other than this mix.
2. Tracks will be picked on: merit, how they fit in the mix and lastly by who made them. If you have 30 posts and send me something, it'll hold less credibility with me than a more established member's track unless the music is fantastic.
3. Some great tracks may miss out, I'm sorry if that happens to you but it probably didn't fit the over-arching flow of the mix.
4. I will be happy to send feedback on tracks if you want it. I will likely write a post-mortem a short while after the mix is released.

Deadline : 25/12/2017

Whether or not I'll make the cut remains to be seen but I'll definitely submit something this time 'round!

Certainly very keen to give it a go, will try to keep it down to only four white noise risers.

Looking forward to this. Regardless of whether or not one of my tracks makes the cut, it's great to listen to stuff made by people in here and mixed well.

Rules are posted, they're very similar to last years but please still read them as I've added a few things. Consider the submission process open.

Nice one. I'll try to send you something, as I am actually working on couple of releases (first time in my life :0). Of course I don't have any expectations, so don't hesitate to discard them if they won't fit. ;)

Will you be wearing sunglasses inside while mixing them?

I'm at a point right now, where I'll have the courage to send something in :)

Dayglow shutter shades as standard.

We've had a track featured about having a wank. Send your bouncy house.

I don't think I'll be able to provide another track about 'self help'.

There's only so much time I have for incognito browsing, and I have other priorities during such a window of opportunity. 8-)

I might submit something, now that I'm (kinda, sorta) back on track.

Had a bit of a rough year, some serious health issues halted my output.

Start at 16 minutes, you'll know it when it comes in: http://www.subsekt.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8063

Even better, listen to the whole thing and get a feel for what other people on the forum make.
