I am really proud that this is my 200th mix release over the past 20 years or so of mixing dnb harmonically using software. Despite now being a little longer in tooth, I hope I have inspired others to give it a try and leave vinyl/decks in the 20th century (or to those that just like the smell).
The technology has advanced in many ways since I started off using 2 instances of Winamp and a cross-fader plugin...not least the tools to help the DJ mix harmonically and other automations like beatmatching to free them up to focus on higher value input tasks. I expect to see AI being used to this end soon and am always looking for innovative ways to make a better sounding mix.
I've been experimenting with generated cover art by crafting a prompt which includes the playlist metadata and expect it won't be long before specialist models can help suggest > mix > dynamically remix > even generate next tracks based not only on analysed key and BPM but on facets like playlist history, vocal themes, arrangement structure and phrasing.
This special milestone release is a thank you to everyone that listens in to or comments on the mixes, to the clever software engineers at Native Instruments (and Google) and to the amazing *real* artists making the music that inspires it all - THANK YOU!
