The tune you're listening to is Sendaro Otis, Just Be Myself. It's the Reyes remix. What we're doing in this video is we're looking at some of the effects on the DJM-900 Nexus and how we can incorporate these effects by using the cue function on the player. We've got the space effect engaged. We're going to turn the colour filter. You can just see that off camera. Let's move the camera like that. Have a listen.

Have a listen. Have a gap in the music. Okay, let's have a listen and do the same thing again. A subtle gap. Compression. It almost chops the tune up, so you get less and less.
