Mobile DJ Mixing Tutorial Chopping from One Tune to the Other BY Ellaskins the DJ Tutor

Alright guys, a bit of a demonstration stroke tutorial on mixing for a mobile DJ. In this one we're going to be cutting from one track to the other. Two tunes I'm using is Adenos Do It Properly, the other one is The Adventures of Stevie B. Mixing like this is more for a mobile DJ because generally a mobile DJ will mix three and a half minute songs or chop up tracks. So very rarely will you have, well no I shouldn't say that because there'll be loads of mobile DJs saying I always play the 12 inch single, but what you do find is wedding DJ, more likely in the UK, the clientele will like to hear top 40 which is sort of three and a half minutes of a track. Okay so this one here, Adenos Do It Properly.

So we're back, sorry Do It Properly, and we have The Adventures of Stevie B. Dirty Cash. First of all this is the wrong way to mix a tune into the other.

Terrible. Another way you could do it, from the beginning of the track in time two, three, four. What I want to do though, I want to keep the continuity of the vibe, the feel. So imagine I'm listening to headphones now. This is on my headphones, what I'm going to do, I'm going to set a cue point. And then the vocals come in. Sorry not a cue point, a hot cue. Okay.

So we have Adenos Do It Properly back on, in time.

What I've done, I've gone from one track to the other, the timing is there, the music is there and at the same time I'm keeping the vibe going. I'm letting the crowd understand that there is a mix, they're used to this track or they should be used to this track so very important alright.
