Yeah definitely can't wait for part 2! I also can't wait to try this and hopefully be able to get it down. Those last two combo's are the ones I like the most! They always sound so good together, just can't get the hang of it though. After practicing with them and watching this vid over and over hopefully it'll begin to come together
Hey MaN you are god sent. Self taught old timer here, thank you for the breakdowns. Love the content PleasE PleasE keep the lessons coming. I can scratch a little (the basics) but can never put together combos, you have changed that. Bless Up.
New self taught old timer too! 42 years old and 7 months in. Working on speed and that fader-bounce for Swing Flares. Frustrating some days but I love it. Thanks!
@Shiva - one thing that’s helped me over the years is being more deliberate when practicing. For example - I’ll practice chirps ONLY for a few minutes, trying to get them cleaner and cleaner each and every session. Do the same thing for transforms, flares, baby scratches, tears, etc. The first few years that I started scratching - I would just freestyle, and I found that I would plateau quickly, because I didn’t have each and every scratch down, perfectly. Good luck, brother! Happy DJing!
After watching you I feel I have a chance at executing this. Never felt confident before... This definitely looks doable with practice... Great teacher you are
This is awesome bro and very useful.Love how you breakdown everything.Thank you for your time and effort.Definately cant wait for a part 2. Your tutorials have really been helping me alot 🙏👌💯💯
Great vids man. Big ups to you on emphasizing which trick to use and when to execute it (which bar and beat). Something other dj tutorial channels don't actually bother doing. Keep it up 🙏💯
Did this help.. uhhh yeah like a million times over!!! Every video is like another piece to my dj puzzle 🧩 definitely wanna c a part 2 of this. Lookin forward to a ton more thanx liftoff 🙏🏽🎼
These are so great! Was just thinking the other day why such scratches don't end with the 1 on the second bar of the drop... Didn't realise you grabbed it on the 3rd bar, 4th beat, not the 4th and 4th... Thanks heaps!
I admired you sir,,you're not only a good dj but you are also a better teacher,,God bless you and keep safe..Shout to me..haha,,jeffrey frustrated dj of the phil.Peace!
Beautifully produced content, brother. Subscribed! Side note - I just inherited a pair of 1200’s from a friend, but I’m really digging those Rane 12’s! How do you like them?
Much appreciated man 🙏🏾 Ahh, I’d love a pair 1200’s just to add to the stash and use from time to time! I really love the Rane’s tho. Platters feel grab, the motorization is great, really durable. No complaints at all so far for me!
Thanks brother love your stuff Helped me a lot, I will admit to you, I ran befor I could walk and tripped up , but 80bpm I was losing the will to live lol
In any Art ( Martial especially) was trained when I was 18 to not disrespect any other Martial Art style just because I don't practice that particular art. Find a instructor that's good for YOU and what's your goal. Some academies as long you pay on time all the time they'll give you the next belt then that student will get exposed in the streets. This falls into that category. I viewed MANY "How to " videos regarding DJ'n and I would pay to attend your class if you were in Nebraska and had a school...you sir are the real deal
Ahah thank you bro 🙏🏾 - just hella practice man. It eventually just becomes natural. I actually surprise myself sometimes because I’ve been a student of the game so long, that I don’t have to think too much about mixing/scratch patterns/etc when I’m DJ’ing now - just flows.
your the best and overrated teacher to teach this this is sweet pls make some transition and acapella transition and EDM IF POSSIBLE AND BASIC MIXING TRANSITION THANKS BRO
Hello. I was wondering if you can tell me what dj gear you have in this video. i just subscribed and this is the only video i saw just now. Also, where can i get my mits on a set of dj gear you have? And if so, let me in on how much it is? thanks for your help. i am looking into buying a set but don't know what? thanks
Yo! Thanks for the sub! So I’m using two rane 12 controllers/turntables, and the mixer is a pioneer DJMS9. The controllers are $799 or $899 each, and the mixer is is $1500 now I believe. If you buy it in a bundle, you can get all 3 for a discount from: idjnow.com - I use that site a lot. There’s also the rane one controller that just got released not too long ago that’s a more affordable option and incorporates my set up essentially in 1 controller. I think it’s approx $1500.
Great vid, new sub! I'd like to see some professional DJs using entry equipment tho like an iPad/Hercules Starlight/DJay...something portable and more affordable...beginners can't afford Rane with moving platters 😆 Dope vid tho!
Appreciate the comment and the sub G! And yeah I feel you 100% - I’m trying to figure out how I can get my hands on controllers just for a short period of time to make videos and send them back. Idk about the iPad tho 😂, that’s a little rough.
I have a great problem with my serato DJ pro,How you can help me please?...It plays the BPM so fast by example ...if I play with 98 it goes down 95 and up 102 by itself
Wish I had that controller so I could tell you exactly how to do it. Have you figured it out already? If not, do you have a crossfader curve knob on the controller?
@@nanadjnyk cool. Honestly, all you should need to do is turn your knob all to the right which is also considered “fast” and your crossdader should no longer fade songs out, but only cut a song’s volume when you’re all the way to the left or right with the crossfader
Started in 1984 Gemini mixer Techniques turn tables...No technology help to automatically mach BPM's , what songs mix well, even loading songs... Imagination, grabbing vinyl playing side B if I wanted to mix acapella or instrumental manually matchingBPM ALL MANUALLY, I just feel it's lost its true meaning of a DJ with all the technology can make a one day DJ scratches and patterns sound like Jazzy Jeff or yourself ..being a musician ( piano my favorite) who use to produce beats Makes me SMH when someone who didn't SACRIFICE ANYTHING ( skipping parties, instead of playing outside ,practicing 1 hour every day) just loads a program via computer which does ALL THE WORK.. GIVE ME A KORG keyboard, work station, 12-16 channel mixer...I got the rest. . Have a 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 ass beat RIGHT NOW
@@DJLiftOFF you do not have to, i can just find a word without any percussion sounds about it. Great video mate! Keep it. These are very helpful and educational. It also forces me to listen to the music more rather than looking at it. If anything, makes me use my ears more when djing, makes me know the music to its totallity before playing it. It is a good thing. Puts me back in 1989 mode listening and memorising songs before playing them. Back to roots
@@zendygarrido6177 much appreciated!! Glad that they are helping, and appreciate your comment. Definitely a great thing to point out though that I too have been trying to focus on more lately. Listening and “feeling” versus being such a visual DJ with eyes glued to the screen. I feel ya 100%
@@DJLiftOFF totally. We are not reading floors, we are not feeling and vibing to the music because we are spending too much time with them eyeballs on the screen making sure the beatmatching is on point. We are sacrificing things
