Phil did a video on harmonic / key mixing. It is on YouTube. You should definitly watch that. It probably awnser some of your questions.
There is also something called the camelot wheel. It shows you what keys sound good together. You could use that as a guide when making mash ups. Programs like traktor can also calculate the key of a track for you. Because not all tracks sound good or harmonic together. But it is like Vintage said. If you change the tempo of a track you will also change the key.
But there is alot to be found on DD tips on key and harmonic mixing. That would probably help you alot.

But also learn to trust your ears. If 2 tracks keys are a match but it sounds terrible. Than it probably is terrible.

There is a mix online. It dates from 2010. But it sounds timeless ha ha 😀

Ignore it. If it is really inappropriate then report it. Do not comment back on it. be the bigger man in this. I think that most people who post that kind of stuff just do it for shock values. To get a angry reaction out of it. So best just to let it pass.

I also think to bigger you get as DJ ( or any artist ) the more this will happen. Try post a mix on youtube with the sync button and watch the reactions. Those things happens, sadly

Zidane is his last name. So it’s just a last name. It is not a nickname that he is known for. But I don’t think it’s your last name, am I right? If that is the case you can’t say; Hey I am just using my own name, that happens to be the same as the last name Zinédine zidane ‘s last name.

I don’t think it is going to be a problem unless you are starting to get really famous / known as DJ. But if that is the case then I think you wouldn’t want to change your name. because under that name you build your fan base and reputation.
So I don’t think it is going to be a problem but maybe it is better to come up with a new name. Just in case

Feels great doesn’t it? to have your first official mix. You are a recording DJ now!
You made a good mix. I was cleaning my living room while listening your mix so I did not really listened to all the details. But I did not hear things which I think need improvement. I think you’re on the right track here.
Keep it up!

hey Telfer

I really liked your mix. Nice and uplifting. Your mixing keeps the energy level flowing. It just keeps on going. I liked that.
Your song selection is also really good in my opinion. I’ve some nice melodies
Keep it up!

I just listened to your mix. And here comes the feedback 😀
A few times the melodies clash in a way that is really noticeable. I don’t think it is bad thing if that happens sometimes, but maybe try some harmonic mixing. Keep working on your beatmatching. you’re mixing is sometimes to much off beat. Look that happens, but in a promo mix you should try to avoid it. You can also do a second take, or a third one, or a fourth one. I know because I ‘ve been there myself 😀

The length of the mix is good. 30 minutes is perfect length for a promo mix. The mix is good as a promo. By witch I mean that it feels as showcase. It paints a picture of who you are as DJ. The build up is good. A nice variation of melodic and harder tracks. You also did a good job of putting 12 tracks in 27 minutes.

All and all a good mix with some room for improvement.

I also noticed something like that. But that were tracks that were re released on a compilation album. So a certain label releases a best of 2013 album and the tracks on that compilation cost E 1.56. But the price on the original EP is 1.30.
To answer your question. People who don’t know that that tracks is re released. There the one’s who are going to spend more. It is a little sneaky but those things happen in sales. Or you should be willing to check each track you buy
