DJ Mixing Lesson from Slow 103 BPM to Fast 120 BPM Tune

0:00 First of all we have a demonstration and then I will give the explanat

Alright ladies and gentlemen, first of all we have a demonstration and then I will give the explanation. From the Urban Releases sequel January 2016, disc number 1, track number 12, I'm playing at the moment and we'll be bringing in track number 1, which is Chris Brown, Find By Me from disc number 2. Go towards the end of this track. Okay, so very briefly and hopefully very quickly. Two tracks, very much different BPM. The Chris Brown was a lot faster, around about the 120 mark. The Mac KC track, around about 103 BPM. So what I tried to do is I tried to listen to the notes, the music in the tracks. Also what I tried to do was make sure when I brought the Chris Brown in, it was around about the same sort of key as the Mac KC.

Also what I did is I used an echo to slowly bleed out the slower track, bring Chris Brown in. Now I don't know if you noticed as well, but the trim control was up quite high on the Chris Brown track. That is because the beginning of the track is very quiet. Have a listen.

2:00 I'm going to turn the trim up now

That's what it sounds like without the trim being brought up. I'm going to turn the trim up now. Have a listen.

It's a lot louder, but what I had to do was turn the trim down to compensate for the volume increase. If I'd have left the trim up at the same point, it'd be red lighting, which we don't want to happen. All right, quick demonstration, by the way, if you want any more info on those two tracks from CD Pool, check out the link in the description. And also today Pioneer have announced a Nexus Mark 2. And also I put a few pictures on Facebook of the new V-Moda wireless, which have been around for a while anyway. But I want to draw your attention to a video I did today about the iPhone 7. Now, of course, I haven't got an iPhone 7. Of course, Apple aren't going to send me one. But I wanted to try and prove a point.

3:06 Random comedy or whatever, do you know what I'm going to do it?

Now, firstly, my videos are random. They are mostly targeted for the DJ. But if I want to do something. Random comedy or whatever, do you know what I'm going to do it? And for the numpties out there who say, oh, what are you doing this for or why are you doing that? Do you know what? I don't give an absolute absolute monkeys. I nearly said toss then I don't care. YouTube is a bright expression and doing what you want and saying what you want. There are certain things that you shouldn't do, like be vulgar to people, be racist and just nasty things like that. That for me is a big. No, no, but just watch the video. All right now I want you to open your mind to the possibilities about what you can do on the Internet.

It's there to be used, but definitely not abused. Also that video on the iPhone seven got people talking. I'm going to keep it there because there could potentially be some people who will watch that and go who on earth is that? We're never going to, we're not interested. Other people may go, this is interesting. What else does he do? They will look watch and maybe get inspired to become a DJ to becoming a DJ or alternatively they may just be bored shitless and just want to watch anyway for the hell of it. So it's about having fun. Get yourself a YouTube account, do some random videos and I'll finish off with practice and enjoy. Thank you very much.
