I made a new version, slightly improved.
My plan is to make blocks of 15 minutes, containing 5 songs (grooves). 4 blocks will make an hour, the blocks help me in my structure
Sounds great to me!
If pressed for giving constructive criticism, I think tracks of 15 minutes might be on the long side, even though I like slow evolving techno. For now Iām sure itās fine, but in an ideal world Iād like a fifth/sixth track in there if Iād do an hour.
5 songs, each 3 minutes, 15 minutes
These songs are in a group of songs with similar feeling. While playing live i dont choose a song, but a group of songs
O then Iām sorry I misunderstood. Thatās pretty short then per song:)
Anyways haha, the esthetics of your music sound great!
when I dj, I have 15-20 songs in an hour
Tnx
Amazing, that makes sense. Curious the hear after your set how you felt about the pacing. In my experience I need more time to go through tracks but I understand that your experience might be different. Whereās the gig coming up? (Online or venue?)
Around June, in a club in Nijmegen
After Some practice, Some feedback from a friend and your post in Mind, I realize 4 songs in 15 minutes gives a better experience.
The date is set, my gig will be on June 14th in De Paraplufabrieken in Nijmegen

Capacity of 50-100 people
Heavily bored with my own music, still 2 months to go.
Soooo recognisable.
Always such a balance between preparing well vs keeping interested in your set
ā¦ur good to goā¦
sounds smoothā¦donāt go over an hourā¦play 50 solid minutesā¦and then let them ask for moreā¦and give them another 15ā¦anything more than that, is too much for a live slotā¦especially if ur not used to it, yetā¦
enjoy every single minuteā¦so take it slow, never rush, take ur timeā¦ur innerclock is ticking faster than the crowd, if u perform liveā¦
hope uāll serve a trancy crowdā¦if so, theyāll love itā¦
ohā¦and one more thingā¦seems like ur really well preparedā¦so, u might wanna consider the luxury, just NOT TO TOUCH ur set and gear in the last few days close BEFORE showtimeā¦than u get best of both worldsā¦ur not bored already of ur stuff and it kicks in fresh again, once itās suddenly happening out loudā¦
I think itās part of the process
When you are in front of the crowd in June, you will be thankful to your former self for taking all the boredom and being now perfectly comfortable with your live set.
New rehearsal with 6 songs in 23:36 min.
I think I will go for 45. A lot to do though⦠happy with this new take. I hope you like, i hope you feedback, and i hope you see i do something with the feedback
