Stage 4 Mixing & Transitions Course 4 of 5

Mixing Genre by Genre

Intermediate 15 lessons · 2 h 34 min

A reference rather than a path: each genre has its own convention about where a mix goes and how long it lasts. Dip into whichever you play. House and deep house first, because the rest is mostly a variation on them.

By the end of this course you will be able to

  • Mix house, techno, trance and drum and bass to each one's convention
  • Handle older styles - funk, soul, disco, eighties - where tracks are shorter
  • Mix chart and pop records that were never built for DJs
  • Know where the mix point is in a genre you have not played before

Below this line is the back catalogue, newest first. Useful for browsing, but it is not a course - the videos are in the order they were filmed, not the order to learn them in. Work the stages instead: each one assumes the one before it.
