I need to make a promo mix this week.
All tips are welcome!!!
I'm worried about the playlist: should you build up to 1 climax or multiple????
If you got some tips, please post them.

Do as you feel like. And enjoy doing it.
What I like to do is do a "life" mix. Here is what I’m talking about:
First you are an innocent child - peaceful, but full of energy. Then you go into puberty, hormones rush thru your blood. You get rowdy. You still have that same energy but you are using it in new wonderful ways. ;) Then you start to slow down a bit. The energy is still there, but it’s a bit dimmer. And you don’t use it as much cause you realized that it has to last you a life time. Now you realize some things about life. You use the energy in totally different ways than you use to. You slow down a bit. Finally you realize there is not much life left and you go to one last adventure. After that you calm down. Live what you’ve got to live. You die happily and relatively peacefully but at that moment you release all the energy you still have left.

I usually do my mixes like rollercoasters I have ridden in my life. I figure people enjoy them, and they are designed with thought of build up and slow down much like DJing. So I ride them and study them. Different coasters for different crowds.
Not sure if this is really helpfull, just thought I would share it with you as nscode revealed his method to madness. lol!

You guys are crazy! LoL
Usely I Record my mix Live: on the spot compiling tracks and mixing them. But now I have this pressure to do everything right and to select the right tracks on the right moment. Stressful!
Anyway, thx for your tips!! I'll try to combine the "life" theory along with the "rollercoaster" theory. (what a combination!!)
