Digeum Mix Session 02A
After my blood donation this afternoon, I got everything in my studio all ready with a fresh set of tracks in @mix-bin. While I still haven’t figured out how to get Traktor to “hear” my microphone, I discovered that Logic Pro is more than happy to let me record my own voice, process the hell out of it with various plugins and settings, and bounce it out to MP3. After a couple of takes, I was off and running. This is the first mix with my own voice in the introduction.
I selected 26 tracks to open the second volume of Digeum, primarily instrumental house tracks that span a period of a dozen years. I locked a groove in about 128 beats per minute and tried very diligently not to slop the transitions too much. I was thrilled to find a hot new remix of a track by my friend, Sunshine Jones, on eMusic the other day. Some of the songs in this mix are fairly new to me. Whether I’ve had the track for a day or a decade, I hope they feel right in this mix to you, the listeners.
I’m going to stick with my schedule of a mix session every other CrossFit rest day, days on which I know I have the evening free after dinner. Between Jay Def and me, I anticipate a very interesting Volume 02. I hope you’re on board with us.
Digeum Mix Sessions – Volume 02, Session Alpha. Mixed by Apollo Lee in Sunnyvale, California, USA, on Saturday, February 28, 2009. Running time: 2:19:22.
