So in another episode of mock-humbleness we have Gammer's latest 'mix tape' entitled 'having a go', you can download it at http://www.djgammer.com after jumping through a tweet/like hoop. Opinions? I was lured in by the promise of 'lots of new music' and I've listened to most of it now and it's basically all that shite that you'd expect to be hearing from him. There's maybe a couple of tracks in the whole set that I'd want to hear out/consider purchasing expecting to be labelled a hater after this post shows up on gammers google alerts feed so just in case, don't be mad dude, there are people that like what you do, and there's a lot of people that like what you did edit: here it is disclaimer: the views expressed here are the views of 'arpz' and do not represent the views of happyhardcore.com or silver.

After having a quick skip through I can honestly say I like the sound of most of this. Some dodgy pop covers, as you would expect from Gammer but some nice sounding material too. Downloaded and will be giving a proper listen later.

I'd like to hear Elliot's opinion before I give it a listen ;-)

By just having a quick skip through it you are missing out! Gammer mixes so damn fast, that a lot can happen in 2 minutes.
Regarding this mix, it is utterly fantastic. It is everything I want to hear in Hardcore in 2015 and more! It warms my heart <3

Is this the one he played on Sunday I think? I listened to it when he broadcasted it live I quite enjoyed it for the most part.

It's excellent from both a mixing and production perspective. Some great sounding tunes and a lot of thought put into the creation of the mix.

I given it a good seeing too now and I quite liked it. Some dodgy ones but some really good. I think if he keeps doing these types of "mixes" (and I use that term very loosely) he should take some notes from Luna-C.

Wow, maybe I'm missing the point! I'll listen again on some proper speakers instead of the mono earpiece I used at work earlier

Had a brief listen earlier and first impression is really good. Just what was needed before HTID ITS this month, looking forward to giving it a proper listen.

Being in the chat during the stream was mental. I've never seen a chat move so fast, and he actually hit 1st on mixlr during his stream. Enjoyed the mix thoroughly too.

I think it is great, as a listener and the technical aspect of his mixing.

Oi, are you trying to make us look like haters again? :P
Anyways. I also skipped throu the mix. I kinda like th tracks (excluding the bouncier stuff that resemebles D&G's stuff from 2004-2007), but I still don't like the sounds used. I'm okey for a track or 2, but a whole mix sounding the same? No, if I tried to listen to this set properly, I would be suprised if I managed more than 6 minutes of it.

Some of them do have a "kid farting through a kazoo" type of feel.
