At great risk of sounding haughty, as someone who's perhaps a bit more into the DJing scene than what's probably the average HN user, all of these sound horrible. Beat matching is the easiest part of DJing, and that's about all that this tool does, so I don't think it's solving any DJing problems specifically. One thing that it does do is take away the turntable GUI (or hardware) and replace it with a two-field uploa…

please take a look at mixes of many songs instead of mashups, that's a lot more relevant to what you are looking for in this product: https://www.rave.dj/iOfKQXFw3TxTWA https://rave.dj/7_laQmBqX-ZWjA https://rave.dj/Im9bExHRkftbXg They try to only play relevant portions of songs, includes many other DJ rules that Mashups of 2 songs do not. I'd argue that mixes in their current form could replace a DJ at a small bar p…

Hey all! I'm one of the devs at Rave (working on the website). This is really cool to see all this interest in us! To address a few points I've seen on here: We do more than just beatmatching. That said, most of our recent technical advancements are done on our mix AI, as it's been our recent push. Give mixes a try (which work better the more songs you give them)! We'll be pivoting back to mashups soon as well to con…

Hey, I'm one of the devs at Rave. I posted some general responses here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17852736 We're aiming to make the process as simple as possible, so anyone can make mashups/mixes, and will add on customizations over time. Our focus first and foremost will be to make sure that the core process is solid before we add on to it. Our AI does do more than beatmatching as well. Though a lot of th…

If there's any Eurovision geeks here, I tried putting two Eurovision songs together, and now I can't stop watching "I Feed You My Rhythm Inside" by Margaret Berger vs Loïc Nottet. I must have played this 10 times in a row now. https://rave.dj/_sYhWmI-iHgq_Q
