Monsieur Seb’s Cosmix: 3, 2, 1, liftoff!

1 Comment

It’s around 2005 that I discovered this new sound whose name (or names, as the case may be) I was still unaware of and which blew me away.

Slowly, I started researching, digging virtual crates and it took me a good year before I felt confident enough to try my hand at mixing the tenors of the genre.

As it happened, it was the first mix I recorded with my newly acquired Torq Xponent and the mix that made me decide I was doing away with the restriction imposed by the 75 minutes time limitation of the CD, which itself replaced the good old cassette tape, cutting out yet another 15 minutes from what used to be a good DJ mix.

From that point on, I have not recorded a mix shorter than 1h45 minutes, and all three Cosmix iterations are close to 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Bon voyage!

Into the Deep

Leave a comment

Into the Deep can be seen as my rebirth mix.

I had more or less completely stopped mixing from about 1999 to 2003, when I met my lady and she drove me to get back to mixing.

So, one weekend, she offered to pay for the rental of two Pioneer CDJs and a mixer so I could play with them and record a mix if the inspiration came.

It did come, and this is what was recorded, and a few months later, my lovely offered me, as a birthday gift, a Numark Fusion 8 kit and the birthday card read “I’m giving you back your wings”…

What more can I say?

atom::funk

Ah! atom::funk! Certainly one of my most accomplished mixes, technically speaking, but not quite representative of my sound at the time. I have to admit I recorded this mix specifically to send as a demo to get booked, so I played it safe in the choice of tracks and worked hard on the technical side of the mixes.

I recorded it live in one afternoon at Maurice Nightclub in Quebec City, where I was resident back then. I also remember that I was really mad at my grilfriend at the time, although I don’t really remember why, but anecdote aside, it proves my theory that creating in a bad mood is often very efficient! 🙂

This is not the complete mix as it was recorded on a 90 minutes cassette tape but had to be truncated when I transfered it to CD a couple of years later, and I’ve since lost the original master…
