Could someone please help me on how to upload a dj mix. I went into the member dj section and clicked on the "Upload Your DJ Mix Here", then what do I do it says there is an "add" button somewhere?

Thanks Geoffrey

@ ivans in rehab

I'll probably go gold if I wish to upload, thanks for the reply! Or I'll have to start talking more.

@djperkins

I guess conversation isn't my strong point :p

I may try what you say about soundcloud/mixcloud rather than facebook, I'm funny about opening a facebook account it seems everybody has one and I prefer always to do the opposite of what's popular or trendy.

You've been very helpful ivan, most apreciated dear sir. :)

Soundcloud is the way forward, you can get a free account...think it gives you 2 hours...any format, OSA has it's own mixcloud now but with clever linking, as iv suggests, you'll be able to advertise it on any site. EVERYBODY is on Soundcloud...it wont take long before you have a healthy following if you upload regularly.

I wish that it is possible to directly link soundcloud mixes in the mixes section instead of the need to uploiad mixes @ OSA.

Many thanks dj perkins I will open a soundcloud account and I will add you, before I do and the reason why I'm not on soundcloud is I heard that lots of mixes get pulled beacuase of copyright issues, so instead I opened an account on mixcrate.

the soundcloud issue is that for the first 30 seconds the start of the mix is analysed against any known tracks in a copyright database it uses. the way to get round it use some mad sounds, dialogue, the tune in reverse mode, your own music, your own edit, etc.

Intersesting and I see how it would work. But for me I can't see me lobbing some mad sounds or reversing a track it would just spoil the mix. I used to create my own music but don't really have anything on tape, even if I did I probably wouldn't use it on grounds of being too shite:$. I'm very picky with what goes in my mix and have to be 100% happy 99% just doesn't cut it.

I'll open an account and if they get pulled, they get pulled.

Many thaks all the same you've been a great ambassador dear sir. :thumbsup:
