Interview – Who is…DJ Shiftee?
Mix – KNKT3D002: Space Mountain, by DJ Shiftee (right click, save target as)

Statement on the mix – This mix is a bit like a rollercoaster for small children, vertically challenged adults, senior citizens, and tall wimps.  There are ups and downs, sharps turns, and surprises, but ultimately it rarely veers too far in a particular direction.  There are no 1000 foot drops on these rides.  JUST LIKE THIS MIX (well, maybe there are a few ).

That is not to say the mix is boring or that I don’t do tons of tricks and scratching.  Listen, kiddie rollercoasters are fun (okay, maybe I’m a tall wimp).  They may not terrify the beegesus out of you, but they always posses a nice balance of smooth riding and excitement.  JUST LIKE THIS MIX.

Last point.  Just because a rollercoaster is meant for kids, doesn’t mean it’s always smooth sailing.  Sometimes these rides are uncomfortable, and often they have themes and surroundings that are just plain bizarre.  You might look to your left and see a giant stuffed mouse wearing nothing but a bow tie and talking to a huge naked purple dinosaur.  JUST LIKE THIS MIX.
