Have You Met The 80s?

from tadoh Hosted by tadoh

Here's the second chapter of a little challenge I threw myself in. About a year ago I uploaded a mix, Before 79, consisting of tracks below 79 bpm. It was very well received and I promised myself I'd quickly release the second mix. Then loads of good things happened and I never found the time. I did now. So here's "Have you met the 80s?", a DJ mix within the range 80-89 bpm, ready to accompany your slow isolation time. The masterplan: I am going to record a mix for every set of ten BPMs starting from the 70s and ending with the 120s. The idea is to dig through my music library, being a bit less focused on the novelty of the tracks that I otherwise might be, and play around with slow and fast. The rules are simple: - Pitch up or down, but stay within the set of ten. Meaning the tracks in the 80s mix, start originally with 8x, and nothing above the line of 90 or below 80 is allowed in. - Only use what's already on the hard drive. No hunting for new music specifically for this. - The mix should be at least one hour long. I remember the 70s mix to be super tough, while Have you met the 80s?, in comparison, was much easier. My library had more to offer in the 80s, a few tracks I've played out in super slow occasions, and most of it mixes well. However, it wasn't easy, and it took some time achieve a result whose flow I could be happy with. I hope this little trip will be to your liking - if it is, feel free to repost and send it to your best friends. Also: In these hard times with lots of cancellations and no gigs on the horizon due the Covid-19 situation, you'll see a "Support tadoh" button on my Soundcloud profile. Clicking it will take you to Paypal and to the possibility of supporting me economically with a donation of your choice. The whole music scene is bleeding from this situation, and artists, venues, promoters and many more have lost their income and are struggling to make ends meet. If you have a chance to support them/us, please do - whether it's me, another artist or your favorite local club. See you soon(ish) for the 90s. Photo: intellectual me, back in the late 80s.
