Dj help, I will show you how to do 2 spin backs on yer Dj DX

0:00 Do a spin back, but two

Alright folks, what we're going to do now is a bit of a DJ tip for you. We're going to show you how to do a spin back, but two different versions that are completely, totally and utterly different and both of them sound awesome. Right, let's start the record off. We're going to use the same ones we used earlier. So let's pretend now they're all playing, we've got them in beat etc. Well, get them in beat. First spin back. It's basically when the turntable is still moving. Right, still moving. Okay? So we'll go to this side. That's that one. That's that side. Okay? This one's still moving. Turntable's moving. That's the first one. It's basically when the turntable is still moving. What's happening is the turntable is going the way it should. You're spinning the record back.

1:36 I mean, okay

But because of the friction underneath, the record will slow down rather quickly. If you've got a very good slip mat it'll go faster. That's the first spin back with the actual turntable moving. The next one is, it sounds better and you can mess around with it a bit more. So we'll do the same thing, we'll start them both off at the same time. We'll hopefully get them started off at the same time this time. Now this time what I'm going to do... I'm actually going to stop the record, okay? So I've got them mixing, etc. And if you imagine, I'm playing this one, okay? I'm bringing this one in, alright? So I don't really need this one anymore. So I can mess around with it. Before taking it off, I can give a really fast spin back. I'll show you what I mean, okay? So let's say this guy's playing here, alright? So I'm going to bring this one in. So I'm bringing it in. Oh shit! Don't do that!

3:16 I had the crossfade over to that side

I'm going to leave that in. Okay, we'll start it off again. Okay, that's playing, alright? So we're going to bring this one in. Okay, so I'm bringing this one into the mix now. Okay? Okay? I've got it in the mix. What I'm doing is turning the record off. Turning it off, so it's gone. It's off. There is no power going to this turntable now. Listen. Okay, this probably wasn't exactly the best way of... Well, not so much the best way of showing you, but the best example. But basically what I did, the first one, the turntable was moving and I span it back with my fingers, okay, across there. While I span it back, okay, I move my hand quickly across it. I had the crossfade over to that side. As soon as the record stopped, crossfade back over to the one that was playing. The differences with the second one, okay, what I did, I actually turned the platter, the turntable off.

So no power was going to the turntable. Then I span it as fast as I could, so maybe it was going, I don't know, maybe 100, 150 RPM. And then... And what you can do, if you listen to the bars, you can actually maybe slow it down with your finger. So... Bang! And in it goes, OK? Two spin backs. Practice and enjoy. See ya.
