There's a misconception nowadays about Dj'n, you go and buy a software program you install it and you are a DJ, or so you think! Dj'n is really an art form, you must learn music, sound equipment, lights and you must learn how to read the crowd etc, etc. So think about it, the money is there but so are the drugs, girls, sleepless nights, drunks, fights, equipment failures and insecurity, one day you work the next ? It's a lot of fun just have to be professional about it.

Amazing video. Started out DJing with some introductory knowledge on beat matching, looping and had some genre specific music structure knowledge that allowed me to make some decent mixes. However, I wanted to learn some techniques for hip-hop and DJing in general. I have to say, this video was it for me. Just recently got into EQ manipulation so I could grasp what you were doing with your mixes. Great video for those who are new to the game like myself. Thank you.

Hey Andrew. In your course you are doing 8 bars of beatmatching, then 8 bars of mixing in and then bass swapping on the next 1. in this example here you swap the bass after 4 bars. Is this because HipHop has more like a 4 bar phrasing rather than 8? Thanks for all your videos and your course is amazing man! It transformed my mixing!

@sendesilva1857 2 жыл бұрын

sick tips andrew but sometimes i find using radio edits work better than intro edits because the intro edits have bass on them so it can sound a bit heavy when you come in espeically if youre mixing in the chorus and when you swap the bases on the 5th bar the incoming song can over power the chorus of the current song for the remaining 4 bars as oppose to a track with a short intro and no bass but mids where you'd loop it and echo out the exiting track.

I've got a question..are songs from beatpools compressed to a similar level? I often struggle with keeping the energy in vocal driven songs, because the sound quality varies so much. Would you recommend platinum notes? P. S. thank you sooo much for your content. You definetly helped me become an intermediate dj through quarantine. Hope your channel grows even more!

@The_cdgp 4 жыл бұрын

If you're using Traktor theres a feature called "auto gain" but I'd imagine that there's something similar in Serato or Recordbox. If you use club gear, you still have to use the gain knob. But then you can for example reference you level when you say. Oh this track is peaking at the 2 orange Led. And then you can adjust the new track that it's also peaking at the 2 orange Led. But don't go into the Reds this will sound terrible.

@nickdanger327 4 жыл бұрын

Mix into 2nd chorus/verse. This gives you enough time for next track. Also gives audy a chance to dance a sing along. Sometimes you gotta change after 1st chorus/verse but really its up to you.

Ideally intros should not have vocals. If vocals come in early on the new track, you should try looping the section (4 bars/ 2 bars) without vocals.

One question? With Hip Hop does the Bpm need to be the same?

@ClubReadyDJSchool 2 жыл бұрын

They say you can comfortably move a BPM +/- 5bpm and the crowd won't really notice, so if you hav a track at 90BPM and another at 100BPM, you could essentially meet them in the middle at 95BPM.

Are you mixing in key, as well as close to the BPM of the track playing and loading a new track??

@ClubReadyDJSchool 2 жыл бұрын

Generally speaking mixing in key and playing BPMS that are close is safe, and is what I have done in this video, yes, but at end of the day track selection and reading the crowd is king but doing big BPM jumps is also fun and you should never pick key over the perfect track.

worng way to aproach hip hop in mixing terms. first of all is not house music so stay away from the EQ, it just makes it sound muddier and confusing . Also, avoid the filters! again, is not edm or house music. Not all music is mixed the same way, some mixes have to be more aggressive that others (trap. drum and bass, moombahton), some more chill than others( Nu- disco, Ambient House) Don't leave out the what makes hip hop...hip hop! Like Slamin' the songs in, Scratching the songs in, Looping, Doubling up. So please, don't give the wrong idea to a person that discovered this video for the first time and send them off on the wrong foot. Respect,
