Right guys, like with all my videos they're wacky, eccentric, mad and anything can happen. Now I'm going to play a few tunes from CDPool Underground releases for September 2019. If you, like me, are uploading videos with loads of music and they're getting taken down or you're getting copyright strikes and so on, well we all are. So just get with the flow. What I'm pleased about though, what I'm very pleased about is that we seem to have the times when we have videos taken down and you get an actual strike as well as the video taken down. Now those days seem to have disappeared because I think what's happening is record companies, artists, producers are realising Isn't it better to have our music content online, people listening to it and also getting money from those videos instead of taking the video completely off, no one ever hearing or not so many hearing that track and also not making money. I will explain in slightly better detail. Now let's imagine you have an artist who produces a track and they put that track
On their social media portals and a thousand people see it. Then all of a sudden I find that track and I put it on my social media portals and another thousand people see it. But all of a sudden it's taken down from my social media because the artist doesn't want anyone else to have that video online except them. Well, that's a thousand less people seeing, hearing it and potentially buying it. On the other hand what's happening now is luckily is most artists, producers and labels are like well why don't we get it out there and if someone does use our music then we'll let them but we will... Also have adverts over that video and we'll get some money from it. Now doesn't that make sense? Isn't that far better than just slapping someone on the wrist, copyright strike, taking the video down and you're a naughty boy and if you've got two more video strikes your channel's down.
2:30 Even though I'm going to be playing some music from
Which happened to me in the past I think three times, definitely twice if not three times. So of course now all that happens or happens most of the time is I will get an email saying just giving you a heads up you're using copyrighted material and there's adverts over the video so no doubt you saw adverts before I've even started playing a track because they found I'm playing copyrighted music and Good on you, the artist is getting some money. So I'm going to play on my right hand side inside my head, on the left hand side talking to you. Now even though I'm going to be playing some music from CD Paul, I want to do a bit of a demonstration as well, how we can enhance a track. Now I've done this before but I want to do it again slightly differently. We've got here a breakbeat tune. This is...
Don't forget all of these tracks are on CDPool September 2019. There's a link in the description to CDPool. Also there's that code DJTutor if you are new to CDPool and you're interested in getting their downloads and you're going to subscribe for the very first time, use that code and whether you get one download or 100, you will get 50% off. Your first download, alright? Now that's a big deal, okay? So, bit of breakbeat. Okay, so all I'm going to do is this. One, two... I'm not using rekordbox by the way. I think that was off there. Let's have a listen. Definitely, let's do it again. Two, three... Much better. Okay, I formed a loop, alright? So, let's play the...
5:02 Just a track by itself
Just a track by itself. Okay, this one here you're listening to now is inside my head. I'm adding another layer. I'm now becoming a producer. Okay, so I've now become a DJ stroke producer because I'm now taking two tracks, taking part of one track and adding it over another one. That was a bit dry. All I was doing was using the beat over it. Let's get a one. Add some echo. Okay, echo, see what it sounds like. The key to this is to not do it too much, alright? Remember, you've always got to remember in life, it's like... Okay, here's the analogy. Here's a really good analogy. Imagine you're making some food and you add a little bit of salt, bit more, bit more, bit more, and then you add too much salt. You can't take it out. It's in there. You might as well throw it all away. Same with this. When you're forming some kind of a mix or some kind of mash-up, if you do too much, you can't all of a sudden say, sorry guys, I did too much. Just forget about that and let's start again. You've already done it. You can't...
You can't take it away. What you can do, though, is you can add little bits and then that's it. That's it. So I may have just done that amount for the entire track, nothing else. As soon as you start going overboard, you make what could have potentially been brilliant and genius into something that's downright stupid. OK? Right, so you heard inside my head. Let's have a little bit more of talking to you. By the way... I would like to see you at the BPM show, alright? It's the 5th and 6th of October. I'm going to be there on the CDPool stand. I've got the RX2, I've got a small little PA system, I've got some funky tunes, but come along and have a go. We're going to be doing some live streaming on YouTube as well, so if you are at the BPM show and you want to spin a few of the CDPool tunes, then please be my guest, come along, ask questions. The guys from CDPool will be there to answer the questions as well, alright?
8:22 What a tune, man
What a tune, man. Loving it. I have written down the numbers of the tracks I like. I think it was number eight as well I liked. What I did there is I waited till sort of beginning end of a phrase, hit that loop. As soon as I hit that loop, I started the other track, the other side. Okay, let's use sweep now on that break beat so we can slowly take away a little bit of it at a time.
9:51 Frequency, the original mix
Frequency, the original mix. Okay, what else did I... 11 as well. Have we already done 11? Made in France. Yep. Do you know what? There's nothing like a good crap. They're all made in France. Calm down. Hey, calm down. Again, with the releases as well, if you get one month of any genre, you can practically do a mix with all of them. A little mix made in France. Not yet.
13:25 Still need to do some mix harmonically because I'm just chucking it in
Okay, there you go. Maybe in a way it's good to do it that way because it means you've got that tiny little bit before the drop comes in. But a lot of this is about knowing your tunes. I don't really know these tunes, so that's my excuse. Okay, liking this one. Alright, what else have we got? Okay, next one. I like a good acapella. Okay, let's just check this one in. Still need to do some mix harmonically because I'm just chucking it in. By the way, at the BPM show, 5th, 6th of October, if you're not there, I'm going to come around your house and tip a bucket of pond water over your head. Alright, we'll leave it at this, track number 14. By the way, you heard that, Freak Hose, the original mix.
This one here is Love Zone, the extended mix. Underground, it's twisty, bendy, experimental but tunes this month are exceptionally good. Loving it. Big shout out to the CD pool crew. Practice and enjoy. Enjoy, thank you.
