DJ Tutorial, How to mix Reggaeton, Video 2

0:00 Try and count along if you can

Alright folks, video number three in a selection I'm doing, hopefully helping you how to mix a form of music called reggaeton. If I have pronounced it incorrectly, do apologise. In this video what I'm going to do, I'm going to just go through a few tracks and I'm going to actually count the bars for you. Try and count along if you can. Now the whole idea of this tutorial is to show you... It doesn't matter how intricate the beats are, you still can count bars. So first of all we'll kick off with this track, here we go. You should know this one. His daddy Yankee is the track entitled Gasoline. So even though it sounds fast, it isn't. Almost doubling the speed, a bit like drum and bass. We could count it 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4. But we're going to count it like this. 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4. We could double that.

1:33 Hope that's been a help, practice and enjoy

Here we go. Style of music, once you get the hang of it, I'm not saying it's simple, it will take practice but what I want you to do is just get a whole bunch of tracks and just try and count the bars and eventually it'll become natural. Hope that's been a help, practice and enjoy. Thank you.
