Aint too keen on a lot of funky but theres a few exceptions, my mates got a lighthouse family tune funked up which is dynamite.
house i find really bad, one or two every now and then ok but funky house is just appauling. club in my town plays that and R&B/Rap and well i'm yet to hear a song out of like 15 hours of listening to it i even think is ok

awww, I miss dan
I'd say the hardest to mix would either be a) old skool hardcore (the structuring on some tracks are really strange) or b) booty house (the bass isn't always consistant so you have to constantly speed up or slow down a tune)

I'd always found Booty House to be one of the easiest to mix. Only problem was that I would go through all 36 of my records in 10 minutes.

haha, yeah well if you let some of the tunes play out a little longer maybe you'd knowtice some inconsistances in the 4/4 structure
it really wasn't until I started mixing booty house w/ hardcore & jungle that I knowticed it *shrug*

have you ever tryed mixing a deathchant record :(
tht is fkin hard and i mean hard.
other than tht the easyest things are hounse/funky house trance all the slow stuff along with the new hardcore i find pretty easy.
the old stuff as allready mentioned with the tricky structures is the hardest for me.....you can sometimes lose yourself.

For me, mixing Deathchant stuff is like most of the extreme hardcore genres. It's all about the atmospherics. I look for very dark ambient or noise tracks to use as a bridge between the beat tracks.

Oh don't be like that:) Ministy of sound rocks man. Give me funky house before hard trance and hard dance any day. Hence the reason it's the number one dance genre in Australia. The hardest music to mix from experience is Eurodance and early old skool. The break downs are in strange places and there's rarely 32 bars and the end of these tracks. So you often have to mix a tune in a quieter bit of the song or where there are just beats. Or in the middle.. If you can't beat match quickly, it will be very messy. Clumpty Clump:)

I think drum n bass is harder because your more mixing on the high end and not on the bass. Hardcore is quote hard because of the speed, then you have speed gabba which is hard because of the speed.
If you can mix hardcore I find you can mix house or hiphop in a matter of seconds.

ambient can be kind of tricky, all about track selection
