New mix... and a general update

Hey guys. Its been a while, and I've been pretty bogged down with tests, but I have a new mix!!!

Last night was the first time I've used the new DJTT mapping for my VCI. I removed my old ghetto faceplate, and decided to just give it a go without any labels (I watched Ean's explanations vids to get my head around it). Overall, I really like it, but it has a couple glitches I'd like worked out (routing effects makes audio glitches bleh.... doesnt show up on the recording though)

I decided to give a go at a little bit of a varying genre mix. It spans Electro, Bmore, and Breaks, at an even 130 tempo (didnt feel like varying it like I should have). Choosing these songs was pretty fun, because I got to throw in some remixes of tracks I really love (I'm Not Alone, Strobe). I hope you enjoy it, and sorry for a few of the rough transitions, and bad FX case. Its tough to mix without labels, especially since I havnt memorized the mapping yet!

Track list is as follows.
