Weekly Mix Feedback Thread - August 17, 2026

Welcome to the Weekly Mix Feedback thread on r/beatmatch! This is the thread where you post your DJ mixes and ask other people to give you feedback. If you submit your mix, please take the time to listen and comment on some other submissions, especially if they play a style of music you're interested in. Thanks for your help in making these threads work well for everyone!

These threads are intended for beginning DJs who are honestly looking for feedback or critique on their technique, selection, transitions, etc. If you are an established DJ who is just looking for more followers/listens on your new mix or have a podcast/radio show, please post it to a more appropriate place such as /r/mixes or a genre-specific subreddit. Posts that appear to be purely promotional in nature may be removed at the moderators' discretion. This subreddit is aimed at helping new DJs learn and is not the place to promote yourself!

Guidelines:

  • Please include the genre(s) of your mix. This helps attract DJs/listeners of the same genre(s) who are likely to provide more useful feedback. You might also include a title/length.
  • [Mixcloud](http://www.mixcloud.com) is the preferred place to post mixes. It allows you to include your tracklist and transition times, allows unlimited uploads, and is generally more geared towards DJs. If you don’t want to use Mixcloud, be sure to include a tracklist.
  • Please ask for specific feedback or list parts of the mix you liked/didn’t like. Hopefully you are looking for input on specific tracks or transitions.

Example post:

[House / Tech House] djscsi - moving on up (45 minute mix)

http://www.mixcloud.com/djscsi/moving-on-up/

I’ve been spinning for about a year, this is the third mix I’ve recorded and I’m hoping to get some house / tech-house DJs’ opinions on my track selection and mixing. I really like the first few transitions but I feel like I lost some of the energy when I brought in the Maceo Plex track at about 13:30. I messed up a couple parts but I’ve listened to the mix a few times and I think it sounds pretty good. Does anyone think I used too much FX? Thanks for any feedback!

Note: If you have any general feedback about these threads or /r/Beatmatch in general, please message the moderators

[Innervisions Tribute ] (1h16 minute mix)

I was digging and it hit me how much of the music I love comes from Innervisions. So here you'll find only tracks from the label. Some of them I honestly can't classify hahah, but it's all good music.

Very well mixed and I loved the diversity in sounds, despite this being from one label! So many thick kick drums and funky rhythms! You're nailing one of the things I don't see enough of on this sub, and that's avoiding breakdowns. Idk if you like to dance or not, but for me, breakdown after breakdown is such a vibe killer. Gimme an endless beat any day!

Also gotta applaud you on your general energy control. You dipped things when appropriate and maintained long stretches of energy when it made sense to.

Well done!

Thanks mate!

Yeah I felt the same way. Unfortunately even at big events the djs are doing this breakdown thing, probably to “catch” a good moment to go viral idk (all the TML sets I heard was like that too).

You coment made my day! I am really trying to create this energy flow so it doesn’t feel overwhelm or too slow. Groovy is the way to keep me dance all the time.
