I want to hear some dodgy mixes, and see how you get out of them. Common mistakes that you handle well speak in your favor.

Besides, that Ableton shit is boring - I want to know there's a human behind the decks. What was that Boy George quote about "at least they know you're there?"
agreed Zymote well said, i love the way our minds have to think and work it when we overdulge
