CD Pool Underground & Alternative Aug 2009, DJ Tutorial

0:00 Some more new releases from CDPool

Alright guys, some more new releases from CDPool. Bit of a tutorial as well. In this one we're looking at the underground releases for August 2009. Kicking off with track number 1 from disc number 1. Slightly off a little bit but 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, did it in 1, 2, so I was hitting the hot cue just before the count of 1 and a bar. Right, let's wag this one forward a little bit. Now again, a lot of times if you use the likes of a hot cue, it's about practice, it's about a bit of fun and messing around. You know, you may not always get it right, but by making mistakes, hopefully you'll learn from those. Number two, as well, the underground and alternative is a bit more grungy, a bit more sort of deep, a lot more going on, a bit more hard edge. It's got nothing to do with chickens. Very deep and dark, this one. Okay, we've got track two from disc number one here. This is what you call slightly minimal right at the beginning. Tell you what, this will make the bass...

4:28 Of it but this would work

Bass speakers rattle, seriously. Right, what I've got here now, I just found, I've got a nice little beat. I'm only going to use maybe the first part of it but this would work really well with this track here. Have a listen. It's that bit, only a tiny amount. I'm going to form a hot cue and then reverse that hot cue. Reverse, backwards and forwards. Let's use that part of the beat. On mixer. But then I was going loads of room in the middle to do a shitload. Sounds like someone used This track and this track. So I had the reverse part from the last track, and again, reversing the track we're playing back into it. Slightly off there but again, it shows how hard it is so much. Track number three, don't forget, on a day as well, you cock up and make a mess up, admit it. If you admit it to yourself then in a sense you're learning at the same time. A bit of a break here, so hot cue there and I'm going to do another hot cue.

In the break, swing this one forward a bit. Track number five over here from disc number two. Disc number two. Now even though this is slightly underground, it's got quite a nice uplift feel to it. Just so you know as well, this is track five from disc two. It's Kidda, a track entitled Strong Together. As ever as well, if you want any more information on CDPool, follow the link in the description.
