Varangian; Dark Arts of the DJ (Cross-discipline multimedia art project) an Expository excercise in my own personal approach to this aspect of Music. The 2 4x4's are short previews of longer Sets. Calm B4 Storm & Dark Art: UPRAMP are both demonstrations of teasing the familiar. My first 90mins playing with my new Controllers are included: "Debutante" _ "Meet me at the Hanging Tree" - "Wear It Better" & "Sonic Alchemy."

DARK ARTS

Mix Electro/House/Edm

All Official SC Discover New Upcoming Top 50 - between Jul & Oct 2022, Mixed & Performed by Dj Vranagian

DJ VARANGIAN YR0-1 WATERFALL

Every Performance Recording in this Playlist made Official SoundCloud Discover New & Hot Upcoming Top 50 Charts in House, Electronic or Techno. I could go back further & add more but my logic is that these were all performed using Traktor Kontrol S3 4-Track Mix Controller; M23 Komplete Keys & Maschine Mikro Mk3 (& Traktor Pro Dj 3 Software). That's about 10 weeks ago (as of Oct 20 2022) & I hope to add more as they are selected for the OSD Charts (+ one or two I've made in that time but haven't added yet).

4x4  Check

Getting a feel for the new system... 
Licensed the "Hanging Tree" Track through BeatSource if memory serves. The feel of the Pots & Sliders is becoming more familiar.


S3D1: "Meet Me At The Hanging Tree"

Full On 4 Track Decks, mostly all spinning & with faders raised for large portions of the mix. Using Encoder knobs on my M23 as Pan Pots & FX Send Wet/Dry Pots.
I've been using the new Controllers for 90mins (recorded not "prep") & I'm familiarizing with the Sensitivity of the inputs.

Sonic Alchemy

Experimenting with genres outside of my usual House/Tech House/Techno diet.
Had 3 options: Nu-Disco, Psytrance or Electro-Pop.
When it came to the "crate dive" I wasn't particularly thrilled with the Psytrance I'd downloaded, & I probably don't have enough Nu-Disco & Funky House to really have much choice.
So far I've been working with old 2000-10 Tracks (like Monkey Bars - Shuggie Love is from 04! man it feels like yesterday!). I'm starting to add more contemporary Electro Pop as it's released.

Renamed Formerly "Meanwhile at my House" 
(ITERATIONS 1.2)
Trying out a little Dj Trick someone taught me about Cam Key Mixing.
Yesterday I did this in Reverse to great effect although I wasn't recording & these aren't the exact same tracks.

Hermitage Sessions 0

An impromptu somewhat improvised wee mix... I originally intended to perform a more teaditional style of mixing, using 2 Decks Looped & 1 Main, with the 4th being used to cue new tracks.
I'd break the loop on the track i was mixing into, then repeat the whole process.
Started accenting heavily using FX.
When I looked down at my fader levels I'd once again mixed in all 4, they were all at full, & although there were Band cuts ont the EQ, every track was contributing, even if it was just accenting or a tops&verb.

Hermitage Sessions 1

Just a DJ Jam Session... nothing special.

Hermitage Session 2

Experimental FX & Mixing... slightly different equipment to norm; very different FX mapping & parameters.

Road 2 Reincarnation Part 1 - L3X1 Session (Bonus Content)

REINCARNATE - Session L3X1

As a contrast to the Harmonic 'Energy' changes I've been using "experimentally" I thought it may prove useful to stay locked in to one part of the Cam Wheel. To the listener the 'Energy' should, in theory, be more consistent through this Mix than some of my other recent session recordings
