Step Daughter Number 2 Gets a DJ Mixing Lesson

0:00 I'm the MP, not the Smelly Pants

Alright guys, Jonathan here, the DJ Tutor and I have my other stepdaughter here known as Miss Smelly Pants. Say hello. I'm the MP, not the Smelly Pants. MP. Melly Pants. Melly, yeah, Melly Pants. No, you're the Smelly Pants. Tell everybody, please. I did have a bath last month. Shh. Sorry. You had a bath last month. Yeah, but excuse me, Soap Dodger. Eh? Eh? I don't know about a soap dodger. It's this one here. The last time she saw soap, I think it had only just about been invented. Hadn't it, madam? Yes. Right. Okay. Let's close the door. Now that we have two tunes here from Karmic Power Records on the right, we have Gino Love. Gino Love and You Got Me Thinking. Duplex. There will be lickable links in the description to Karmic Power Records. Right, Ruby, this is what we're going to do. I am going to set a cue point on Gino Love. You have then got to press play at the correct time and phrasing, bringing this track in. I don't think I've done this before. May have done, but well, we'll soon see. Now, doing this sort of transition, you don't have to think...

About are they in the same BPM? They can actually be at different BPMs. The transition itself isn't even one second, it is pretty much one starts, oh sorry, one finishes and one starts, so it's bang like that, so you're straight in from one track to the other. These sorts of transitions are really good if you're say a mobile DJ and you don't want to do lots of mixing, especially if you're using radio versions three and a half minutes. So, Ruby, what I'm going to do is I'm going to... I need to say something. Go on. And it goes bang like that. It goes bang like that? You have to press that. Hold on. OK, so, now, Ruby, can you see on the wave format, can you see, like, peaks and troughs and can you see that sort of break there? Yeah. I'm going to go to that point there, which is a break in the track. Now, let's count how many bars there are in that break.

2:34 One, two, three, four

And a bar is the count of how many? Four! Oh, well done Ruby! Isn't she clever? Right, so count with me. One, two, three, four. Two, two, three, four. Three, two, three, four. Four, two, three, four. Five, two, three, four. Six, seven, two, three, four. Eight, two, three, four. Now after eight... We had a kick coming. Have a listen. Stop being silly. Kick me. Right, so I'm going to set another cue point there. So, right, Ruby, this is the difficult bit. Right, see that? That's your crossfade. Yeah! Okay? I need you to count four eight times. One, two, three, four. Pay attention and listen. Count four eight times. Pretty much as soon as you've counted... I will give you a demonstration first. You then press play on that side and we move the crossfade straight over as soon as you press play there. I'll demonstrate first. What do they say? Never play with children or animals. What they should say is never play with animal children because you're an animal. Right, so here we go.

So we're going to wait for that break. 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 5, watch me, 2, 3, 6, 1, 2, 3, watch 7, 1, 2, 3, 8, 1, 2, 3, there. So do you get that? Yeah, so you go like, oh! Okay, so I will start counting before you listen. 1, 1, 2, 3. 2, 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, fingers, 5, 1, 2, 6, 1, 2, 3, 7, 1, 2, 3, 8, 1, 2, 3. Bit too soon, 8, 1, 2, 3 and then in, okay? So I say 8, 1, 2, 3 and then you press. So it's 8, 1, 2, 3, press. Okay, I think that we cued that up yet. So this is the move, look. Watch. The DJ Tutor is the best way to learn how to play the guitar. 5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 1, 2, 3, 7, 1, 2, 3, 8, 1, 2, 3. A little bit better. A little bit better. Now, if you're having problems, you can always try something like this. Listen. Watch. 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3. 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1.

1, 2, 3. 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1. You try. So, 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3. 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 2. All right, Ruby, that's good. Right, now this is a practice. It's like cycling. It's like keeping fit. The more you do it, the better you will get at it. Even if you don't get something like this straight away, just keep at it, keep on practicing and eventually it will be like riding a bike. So you have to say, I always finish with practice and enjoy. Practice and enjoy! Thank you. Take care. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
