CD Pool UK What Is Good for You What Music Is Your Style Lets Find Out?

0:01 I've worked with them for a long, long time and I like their content

Right guys, this video mainly applies for DJs in the European Union, sort of like, you know, Scotland, Ireland, France, Germany, Switzerland, etc. If you're in and around America, you will have your own DJ pools. But anyway, you may have known I do quite a few videos for CD pool simply because... I've worked with them for a long, long time and I like their content. So it's a symbiotic relationship. They look after me, I look after them. Very simple. Now you may have noticed I always seem to do the house, club, underground, beats and dance. So if you're not familiar with these, dance, these are the actual CDs so you can still get them but you can also download all of the tracks that are on these CDs.

Dance is more handbaggy, you know, your sort of club tracks you'd expect to hear on a Saturday night in a fun bar with loads of vocals, uplifting melodies and so on. Quite often you probably have a dance track on here that may go on to become a radio hit on, you know, top 40 sort of stuff. Is more your two-step, more your hip-hop, R&B and soul. So what you've got here is you've got more of an underground sort of grimy feel for slow beats, you know, the BPM ranging from sort of 90 BPM. Sometimes you can get some UK Garage on here as well. So it's not just hip-hop, it's an eclectic mix but... Generally what you'll find on here is vocals, melodies, rhymes, beats, basslines, hip-hop, R&B style. Underground is a little bit more twisty, bendy, experimental kind of deep house but with a more techie feel. Also you expect to get drum and bass on here as well.

2:28 Swedish house, house mafia, classic track

Your club series is more house orientated, less cheesy kind of vocals, a little bit more like the sort of things you'd have Ibiza and so on. And house again is soulful, more melodic house music. Sometimes you get some really deep soulful stuff as well. But then these two, the club and the house are very similar. But the club is a little bit more piano orientated, more sort of melodies and rhymes and vocals, whereas the house seems to be more sort of samples and underground and deep. All right, so that's that lot. Now again, every month on the CDPool website, now what they're doing is they're updating the styles day by day. So what you can do is you go online and let's say on a Monday you would have in the house...

Section you may have say 10 tracks Tuesday you could have 15 so they may have added five all right so that's what's happening now now again don't forget you can get the CDs you can also download these as well now what I don't do much on Here is the remix series for September 2021. So we've got Amen UK, Passion, an absolute classic track, Junior Jack, Stupid Disco, again another great track, Degrees of Motion, Shine On, I mean back in the day that was a monster tune and it's been remixed. Pink, all I know so far, Mayo, we've got Jam and Spoon, Right in the Night, another classic 90s track. Let's have a look what else we've got. Crafty Jack, we've got Joe Hunt, Sam Spooler. So there's a whole bunch of tracks here. So what is the remix? Well, basically it is old school.

Mostly well-known tracks that have had that remix edge. So, I mean, there are so many mixes out there of tracks, you know, old and new, it's a nightmare to find the best ones. But what CDPool is, they sieve through all the crap and they just get you the best. Okay, radio. So this one's from August 2021. Now, it says what it is. These are predominantly the tracks that you will find on the radio. So what have we got? Sam Fender, Rain Radio. We've got Tom O'Dell, KSI, Inhaler, Swedish House Mafia. Swedish House Mafia. Talking a bit there like James Bond. Yes. What was that funny joke you said? Oh yeah, that's right. Underwear should be silk and not satin. You've got to think about that one. Shakira, Will Young and so on.
