How do you go from one genre of music to the other?,2

Lesson Intermediate Stage 4: Mixing & Transitions November 2007

Contents of the video

Alright folks, quick second video here in transitions from one style of music to the other. If you're a mobile DJ or you do school work, discos, etc., you're always being asked to play different kinds of music, right? Can't find two more different kinds of music than this, right? The first tune is Stone Roses and Fool's Gold, and then the other one is from Pulp Fiction. It's a track entitled Flowers on the Wall, performed by The Slater Brothers. All I'm doing, I'm listening to the key to the feel, I'm not going to try and mix it, I'm going to go bang from one into the other and we'll see what happens, OK? This, first of all, is what the Fool's Gold tune sounds like. There you go. And this is the other one. Can't be more different than that, can they? So here we go.

Okay, what did I do? I listened. As soon as it got to that right sort of pitch, the right feel, the right melody, I went bang, one straight into the other. That's what you do if you can keep to that philosophy and policy, then it'll make life a lot easier. Practice and enjoy.
