All this week, Digital DJ Tips is dedicated to helping you to make better mixtapes. On Monday we showed you how to assemble a fantastic shortlist of tunes for your mix. Yesterday we looked at how to plan your mix. Today will be all about actually recording it, before we master and burn it tomorrow. Finally, on Friday we’ll help you with ideas about how to get your mix out there to the people.

You’ve given us some excellent feedback so far on the Digital DJ Tips Facebook Page, and we’d love you to comment at the end of the article too. This is meant to be a practical guide, so get those digital decks dusted off and have a go – why not try and get a mix done by the end of the weekend?

We encourage you to follow this course with your own music and if you can, spend the coming weekend trying to record a mix – especially if you’ve never done so.
