Hi there,
I checked out your mix, you've got quite a few plays and likes so you're clearly onto something good. I can't really comment though, the music isn't my scene.
Happy mixing

The way you mixed those first 2 tracks was not smooth at all bro. lol. But hey, you gotta start somewhere and i'll give you props for putting together such a long mix for it being one of your first mixes.
I do not have much experience putting together such a long mix but I have heard some really mixes from clubkillers.com. I hear those Djs mix and then I guide myself from there. Here's what I've picked up from listening to those mixes:
-Use your hot cues! (Cues are there for a reason that is to chop up the song. Have fun with it and don't simply play the song from beginning to end or let it run continuously from any given point to another! Have fun with it!)
-bring in some crazy shit from youtube such as newscasts, cartoons, tv shows, etc. Get creative!
-know your music and have many songs to choose from because you won't be playing the song the entire 3-4 minutes!
-use effects and samples.
-Finally, just have fun with it and enjoy yourself!

I'll be a bit more specific. Your mixing is off key.
In other words, when you blend two tracks, the music from each is clashing. The tracks are out of tune with each other.
If you haven't done so already, I suggest you enable the display of key data in the VDJ browser.
Alongside each analysed track you'll see either an number/letter combination (eg 7B) or just letters (eg Cm) that can be used to determine which tracks will fit musically with others. Look up info on the Camelot wheel and mixing in key.
Mixing tracks that are not in key makes for painful listening!
