I've listened to it today. Track decision was alright, but tmo it's a very safe way of mixing.
Please notice I'm not a DJ myself.

Well, I'm unable to give you technical advises, but listening to it gave me a little bit the feeling of boredom. It sounded steril. The tracks are Ok, but I doubt they are difficult to mix together as they own the same "beat character". The mixing from never variefies enough to my opinion. You should play around a little bit more intensly or tease the listener by mixing in short passges of the following track. Also you can give a mix a very raging charakter by switching between tracks dramatically. In this case it might be useful not to play 3/4 of the track, like you did most of the time. Blast out choon after choon to smash on the peoples heads like a slege hammer.
It's all about rave.
May be the DJs in here are able to share some of their know-how to express my point of view much better (or explaining me, I am so wrong).

I never really care about "beat character" (that might be why some of my mixing sounds horrible :P) but I think this was good. He might have taken some safe tracks, but I think they sound good together. What do you use to make this mix? It sounds a little over normalized (or it's soundcloud making it sound like that).

I love that you spelled 'character' right on the first usage then spelled it 'charakter' the second time LOL.

I must admit i dunno what you mean by beat character or safe tracks. I used to bedroom dj years ago and just mixed any track to any track. But now there is a purpose to it all i try to use harmonic mixing where possible. Maybe this is normal but thats just how i do it since i started producing too. As for the sounds processed i did add stereo surround and eq and compression after the final bounce. It easer to mix 2 tracks tha are in the same key if the vocals or melody are butt to butt.
