Five To Nine

Yes, I understand you think it's a weird title, but it will make sense by the end of this write-up. This pick started with two songs. The ones from Tom Tom Club and New Order. So started to think how can I get there from here? There were several ways I could go, but I decided to look at the Camelot mixing values. 5A to 9B. If you understand strictly Camelot mixing, you can jump either one number forward or back (5A to 6A is a good mix - keywise) or same number and move from A to B (9A to 9B). There is way more to it than that, but for the basic rule, that's about it. There is a Camelot wheel (search for it if you want to really dive in) that helps you move around with mixes. Obviously there is more than key, there is Energy of a song and BPM of a song. I paid very little attention to that on this mixtape. Within the keys, I adjusted for BPM and ignored energy altogether. Some worked itself out, others didn't at all. Oh, well. That's difference between DJ'ing a live party and picking a compilation for fun. Cover is a play on the Dolly Parton movie logo.
