Thanks all for your helpful replies.
NOW albums sound like a good start. Ebay good idea, although if I start ripping and transcoding I will need a ProDub license, duh! (We don’t have that thing where I live :D)Quite subjective, as I would hate to hear just generic Now albums at my wedding, or even worse, 90s-00s pop, but it’s certainly a good place to start.
I feel you, no pro would book a wedding without fully grasping the bride and groom’s music taste (must-play’s AND blacklist) anyway!
Thank for your custom suggestions.First of all, dirty ID3s and/or filenames (e.g. “[downloaded from shadymp3.net.cc]”) are a dead giveaway that you are a pirate AND an idiot.
I’m so OCD about my ID3s that keeping them consistent is a significant part of my workflow when expanding my collection.Assuming they’re clean, there is no “easy” way for them to check whether it’s legit or not, apart from listing all tunes and asking for invoices. Might pick a few tracks at random to check and assume it’s a representative sample.
Can’t claim being a saint about this, still have some illegal mp3s that I’m progressively buying. Priority is audio quality upgrade > play count.
Recording myself as opposed to using production software. Yes it’s less flawless but I can factor practice time and record time. (Doing Facebook Lives too).
If I trainwreck something I’ll edit it on ableton before publishing it lolGear’s a nexus2 set (2000s and DJM-900). Using Pro DJ Link, not using sync. TRYING not to over-use effects although it’s tempting. Bit of reverb and echoes. Priority for selection is: General feeling I have > Tempo consistency > Key compatibility. So yeah I look at it but the key will never prevent me from cueuing up a track if I think it’s the perfect next track. (Applies more to live gigs actually, because mixtapes are prepped more thoroughly)
Have a nice day
