One Night In The Haçienda (1990s, Balearic, UK House)
- this sub is oblivious to this for some reason but automatic beat matching (not the Auto mix, the algorithm the tries to align 2 tracks according to their detected grids when you drag them around) and the grid detection have been broken for a while now so most of the "mixing" was done manually with "ms shift" arrows. this is especially true for "busier" tracks (just look at the grids it produces, they look like crooked, broken fences with random gaps) and 16-bar transitions where the mix starts to "drift" after the 8 bars (unless you try to fix it manually which is not always possible). 8-bar transitions or simple drum outros suffer less but that's not the point.
- the mix uses all available tools of the Mix Style Ver. 6 (that's available through desktop developer options, mobile still uses Mix Style Ver. 4 officially) like customizable curves and even the Effect tab that only available on desktop that now applies the effects even to mobile transitions when saved.
- although bpm/speed change option has been available to me 3 times now (they like to take it away) i don't find it particularly useful because even for the tracks that are 109 bpm when they are changed to 110 bpm it still doesn't allow for 16-bar transitions.
- even though the mix is a tribute to The Haçienda, a legendary nightclub in Manchester, England, that existed from 1982 to 1997 and was backed by Factory Records and the band New Order, all tracks are contemporary that keep that spirit alive.
