CD Pool Club New Releases June 2014 with Virtual DJ 8

0:01 Another new release to see you from CDPool with a slight difference

Alright guys, another new release to see you from CDPool with a slight difference. What they've done, they've given the people who buy the hard copies on CD the chance one week before the CD release to download the tracks. So we have the club, the urban, the underground, the dance and the global releases all can be downloaded before the release of the CD. In this video we're looking at the club releases. This one here is Sticky Fingers by Above & Beyond. We've also got A bit of kit here from Pioneer, known as the SX. We'll just turn it up a little bit on the speaker and bring the trim down so we're not going into the red. I'm just gonna drag a track over there, or should I say drag it to there. It's the Sky, it's the original mix, David Jones and Joanna Mills.

Okay, what we're doing as well, we're using the new software from VirtualDJ. This is VirtualDJ number 8. As you can see, I'll be honest with you, VirtualDJ, you've done it guys. It looks a lot cleaner, a lot more pro. What do you think about it? Are you using this program? Do you love it? Do you hate it? What do you like about the new look of VirtualDJ 8? Give us a shout, let us know.

2:21 Whatever I do on the turntable, the underlying track will carry on pla

Slip mode. Slip mode is really cool because what you can do in slip mode, it's exactly the same as pro CD players now. Whatever I do on the turntable, the underlying track will carry on playing. Build of the music and the track still carries on playing. That's hot cue check out roll. Okay we drag another track on the other side. Next one is going to be Hey Now by London Grammar. It's a Sasha remix. Again, what I can do with this is we can flick over two Deck number three and we can layer the deck. So by pressing just below dual deck, I've now got the third deck ready. So again it's the way they use the controller from far left to right we have deck three then deck one, the sample volume in the middle, then deck two, then deck four on the other side. Okay this one here is Hey Now London Grammar. Straight away

Again, sometimes, you know, years ago when I used to go into record shops, I still do now on the odd occasion, but if I used to buy loads of vinyl, normally within the first sort of, I would say, 20 kicks, you knew if it was a good or a bad track. This straight away, it's got that happy vibe to it. The kick just says, you know what? I'm happy tune, I like it. Okay, let's wang this one forward a little bit. Let's go to there.

4:39 We're going to play is Aseed

What a nice feel to it, very uplifting, very vibrant. Hey now, a Sasha remix. I'm liking this one. Okay, the next one we're going to play is Aseed. It's actually spelled A-C-I-I-I-D. It's the... Oh, bring that one down. It's the original mix. Oh, did we put that on deck three? Hold on, let's have a look. Yeah, we got that on deck three. That's why. Okay, we'll bring that one down and we'll get that ready. So now, again, we're on deck three. Something really, I mean, I do use controllers but not as much CDJs and something, a tip here, which I just did, you've got to be very careful and make sure you know what deck you're on if and when you're using a controller that will let you use four turntables, very important. This one here...

6:55 Website, I'll put a link

Acid is the original mix, and let's wang it forward a little bit. Reminds me a little bit of London. For all you train spotters out there, you'll know exactly where I'm coming from. Everybody in the place! Let's see what else we can find. The next one is going to be Bring That Beat, the original mix by OB. Also as well, just the whole look of Virtual DJ 8. It's just a lot more crisp and a lot more clean. The edges are more refined. Colours are not bold in your face, they're subtle. It is, it's so much more professional looking, so top marks Virtual DJ. Okay let's check out now Bring That Beat. As well if you're not familiar with CD4, what you can do, go to the website, I'll put a link in the description and when you go to either the club, the globe or the urban, underground,

Listen to the tracks on the website, tiny snippets, so even before you buy the tracks, you can have a little listen to all of the tracks. Bearing in mind that I'm only playing a few from, okay? Put this one forward a little bit, very tribal this one, I like it. You get that sometimes, you hear a track and you think it sounds so much alike. In the red there, so I need to always be careful. Let's bring that down slightly. Alright. Pretty much that, that's it for this particular video. You're looking at CD Ball Club releases for June 2014 and I've been playing tracks that I've downloaded from CD Ball itself, okay?
