DJ Demonstration Tip on Adding Echo over the Kick Drum in 4 BY 4 House Music

Lesson Intermediate Stage 6: Performance Technique November 2015

Contents of the video

Alright ladies and gentlemen, a short and sweet tutorial, demonstration really. The track I'm using is from the Club Series March 2015 CD pool. It's track 3 from disc number 2, the Bassjackers and Thomas Newsome track entitled Wave Your Hands. First of all, let's have a listen to the beginning of the track. Turn the volume up. Quite a skip to this tune anyway but how can we make it a lot more deeper? How can we give a lot more emphasis to kick drum? Well I'm going to use the echo effect. I'm going to put the echo effect on 3 quarters. Now let's have a listen. Just slowly decrease the effect and that's it. Very simple but a great way of bringing in a track that's a steady 4-4 house beat and adding extra elements.

Go and check it out. I'll put a link in the description to CDpool.com, practice and enjoy. This is a bit of a tune.
