Video for Thomasbd15, a small tip to get a good set togeath

Lesson Beginner Stage 5: Musical Craft November 2007

Contents of the video

Alright folks, this is a video response going out to Thomas. Now then, basically what he said, he's got a party to do and he wants to know how to get a good set together. He wants a set that's got a good climax and a good break off. Okay, now then, this is what I want you to do. Again, this is across the board with any type of music. Thomas, go through the records, the CDs, the programs on your PC or whatever that you want to use. Okay, so you might have a thousand songs but just choose the ones you really want to use. Then what I want you to do, I want you to listen to each one. Not all of it doesn't matter, but every time you listen to a certain song, I want you to relax and I want you to think how that song makes you feel. Does it make you feel relaxed, chilled and just sort of chugging along? Or does it make you feel happy, euphoric as though you want to jump up and go mad? The ones that make you feel chilled and relaxed, put to one side. The ones that make you feel euphoric and make you just want to boogie, put to another side. And then you've got the basis to start...

Thank you for watching and I've got my eye on you.
