Music always has critics and with Dance music there is one big conflict. Going digital versus Vinyl. Some people would argue that you must stick to Vinyl, but as technology advances, people can now use an ipad to mix and make creative sets. Fortunately Deetron has decided to showcase two mixtapes. one of them devoted to Analog for all those music purists. The other one using Digital media and creativity to create two awesome mixes. A perfect Balance.
When asked about the mixes, this is what Deetron had to say:
“I chose to use both digital and analogue formats since I’m using both when I’m playing out” he explains. “This compilation is a celebration of the gorgeous format that is vinyl and a praise for the endless possibilities the digital world has to offer.” To that end, Disc 1 was mixed digitally, with additional production and editing in Cubase and Wavelab, and Disc 2 was recorded with three turntables and an Allen & Heath mixer – and some very special dubplates. The track selection and structure of each of these two sublime mixes lovingly and carefully reflects that inherent choice of medium, while at all times reminding the listener why his highly accessible, humanistic sound is so widely cherished and embraced.
Now it’s time to enjoy this melodic and very cinematic Mixtape:
