Noize Machine Makina 12" Rave Happy Hardcore Tune Demo DJ Tutorial

0:01 There will be a link in the description to his Facebook page

All right guys, this video is going out to a guy by the name of Mr. Danny D. There will be a link in the description to his Facebook page. Now this is a piece of vinyl. It's a 12-inch single and do you know what's beautiful about this single? Everything, everything just fits together like a glove. Now first of all, this style is known as Makina. It originated in Spain and it's sort of a, it's, it's similar, very similar to old school happy hardcore or rave music which originated in the 90s. Now why is all of this pure and utter sex? I'll show you. First of all, we have a 12-inch single. There it is. Secondly, it's blue. Which is even more sexier. Thirdly, it is being played on an old school mock'em slip mat. Now you can't get more sexy than that.

Yes, you can because it's being spun at three, sorry, 333 and a third RPM by the undisputed heavyweight of the world turntable, the Technic SL-1200 Mark II and I did say Technics there. May have said it slightly incorrectly. Right. There you go. Right. Can you still buy this record? Well, if you're watching this video around about the upload time, you can. Here it is. Noise Machine. Download the free radio app as well. makinanoise.co.uk So what can you expect on this rather nice piece of vinyl? Noise Machine Volume 1, the logo side is infinite track entitled Peace and we have Hinton featuring Lee Johnstone. Track entitled Criminal, the DMBRMX. I presume that's short for remix. Then on this side, which I'm showing you now, FJM Project, a track entitled Virtual Reality and Danny Digital, a track entitled Velocity.

2:51 We're listening to is a track

OK, so the number of this piece of vinyl is EMREP001. Let's have a listen to all the tunes. Now, again, this style is very fast. The BPM of this is probably getting on to 140, 150 BPM and it's got energy. It's got passion. It's full on. These are the sort of tunes that you would play at the end of the night if you didn't normally play this style. You build up and up and up until the end of the night. You just hit them right between the balls with stuff like this. OK, so that one was Virtual Reality. The next one we're listening to is a track entitled Velocity. Nice. Now, do you remember if you're a vinyl turntablist or used to play vinyl years and years ago? Did the needle on the record jump when the people danced?

Just listen. Can you hear that sound through the speaker? That is me bouncing on the floor, making the floor vibrate, which in turn is making the cupboards vibrate, which in turn is making the turntable vibrate, which in turn is transmitting that vibration to the needle, which in turn is taking that vibration signal all the way through the arm into the mixer and through the speaker. So this is why sometimes you'd get feedback or the needle would jump. We don't get that with MP3s anymore. Now watch this. Let me show you something here. Let me just show you something.

There's a thumb drive full of MP3s. See? You can't hear a bloody thing, can you? But you know what? Let's put some real music on. Some vinyl. And let's have some sex. It jumped! Oh God, you don't want to do that. That's another thing is the old school DJs. Again, I used to do it. You had to be very careful lifting the arm of the needle because if you lifted it slightly incorrectly, you moved it one way or the other, then you would not scratch the record but you'd almost like pull it to one side and you'd get that sound. So you had to be very careful and lift it up like that or down there. Of course, the other way of doing it was just to lift the tonearm but that was for lightweights. Because us heavyweights always used to lift the arm ourselves.

So... Right, again with vinyl. That is in the centre point of the technique so you can see that because the green light's flashing well not flashing but the green light's shining. If we reduce the speed, two things are going to happen. Also if we increase the speed, two things are going to happen. One is the track will either slow down or speed up. The other one is the key, the tone of the track will lower as we move the pitch away from ourselves. Alternatively, it will increase, it will go higher as we bring the pitch towards us because we're not only making the track faster we're increasing the key. So what you could do is you could also increase the energy of the tune by starting to speed it up. Have a listen.

Wrong one.

6:11 Can you hear that?

Can you hear that? And listen.

What you had to be very careful of is not to do that too much during the night because it would sound as though the turntable was going wrong. So you always have to be very careful about how you increase or decrease the speed. The general rule of thumb with old school vinyl was you're pretty much OK if you only have to increase or decrease the speed by 3% any more and you could start to change the key of the track as well which in turn would mean that if you had to reduce the speed by over 3% getting it in beat with the other track it would be in beat maybe but then it might actually be out of key. It was a nightmare! But you know what? This does it. OK, any information you want on this tune there will be loads of links

Clickable in the description and also go and check it out as well you may wanna buy one. Nice one. Practice and enjoy. Practice and enjoy. More of it left! I didn't see it's not the end yet. Anyway, that was the end of a phrase. See again, the beauty about these tracks is that the phrasing was so precise you knew where it was and when it was coming in it was like regimented soldiers marching 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Got it. Practice and enjoy. Nice one, thank you.
