Saying so especially as a beginner DJ but intermediate producer proficient at making varied styles. I know one day I wanna be able to spin pretty much anything with smooth and fun transitions, but the facts is first I gotta be able to even beatmatch basically 😅 Bottom line, I know I'll be using tutorials at all levels. And I know I'm not alone.
A tip here, you can also work on 3/4 echo meaning that the echo will perfectly match the 4/4 of the slower track. This is an amazing trick if you want to avoid the snares arriving a bit "out of the blue" if it's a difficult track to bring. You can use that 3/4 echo to build up a drop on your 170 something bpm track. If you want more tips: just trial and error :) do it again and again and again. Use your hear for these, they will tell you if it's right or wrong, beat matching with a computer or a pioneer won't fully do the trick. Good luck!
@@thesiamface in this video, she uses an Xone 92 which is amazing (my favorite mixer I think) but you don't have any other effects than the great filters. On a Pioneer or via any pc controlled system, you usually have echo effects.
I’m sure this will leave all the other DJs in the room heads spinning around: how did she…? wtf!!?? Looping a 3-beat measure, leaving out the 4, doing a seamless beat-matched transition from 129 to 172…? Bravo!! Magnifique! This is hyper advanced level ingenuity in mixing.
@@ovotal This is becoming philosophical. For me time, tempo and so forth do exist without math. Math is a tool man did invent. Time did exist before and will for eternity.
another cool thing that makes these 2 songs work is that the house track already has 3:4 syncopation (gtr chords), and the DnB track features triplets over 4/4 - so the 3 of the house track, and the 1/8th note of the DnB track sync up over quarter notes - in a sense keeping the 3 to 4 feel even though everything always feels like 2 bars of 4
A head a sweetheart and a genius!! Cecis dedication to the craft and their love for music oozes with evrything they do. My favorite dj and a huge inspiration to all us musick weirdossss
in awe at the mix, I've tried similar things but this is someone with actual talent :) also note the A&H Xone92 + Boss DD200 - very similar to my own setup. Lovely!
clever. Would love to hear it executed on a club system. Well explained too. Refreshing to see something educational and unique and not some idiot throwing a fit on stage to a pre recorded set with phones and ice cannons galore
It's important that the track you're mixing into has a prominent rhythm that matches well with your outgoing track. Most DnB won't blend this easily with a house or techno track, this one works because it's more of a 6/8 feel than most tracks in the genre (being 4/4). I enjoy blending odd times as a DJ, i think that's due to my musical upbringing as a prog rock/fusion drummer. Machinedrum uses a lot of odd meter in his tracks, I did a live blend one time out of some jungle into his tune 'Only One' in 5/4 that worked really nicely.
ok, it is actually also important that the higher bpm (drum and bass) track has bass playing in triplets, so that they match the 1/16ths of the looped house track. btw, you can play this game backwards, go from say 159bpm (slowed down dnb) track to 106bpm track with triplet rhythm. Not many tracks like these but they exist. Then you can mix out of the triplet track to something with sparse beats, or the triplets clash. And theb you are in the near-100bpm dancehall territory
This is a cool trick. especially with techno. You can add various effects on top of that 3/4 loop making it sound as if it was prod. The incomming 4/4 always grabs attention.
These CCL videos have been such a great series! One thing that stood out to me though; how does the deck on the left auto-loop at the 3:24 mark? Is that a CDJ feature I’m not aware of?!
Great stuff and kudos for this! For people hungry for more stuff like this I recommend the music of Nicolas Bougaïeff who focuses on exploring these tempo changes through music production.
Great DJing and love the different rhythms coming together. Some DJs are able to do this on the fly because they are feeling it from within. This type of rhythm resonates with black people well. Look at how African drumming can encompass polyrhythmic beats so This type of DJing is felt deep and much loved by black people or people in general with a sense of deep rhythm feeling from within.

This is actually the DJ tutorials people need
The basic stuff out here is vital for beginners. This stuff is great for more advanced DJs.

not a new technique really bunch of videos came out about this last year.. whats new is calling it polyrhythmic tempo transition 😂
@@RckDtarit’s not that it’s new info… it’s that it’s a good video

Yeah but that mixer don’t have echo fx
what you meant with a pc or a Pioneer ? :)

@@yung_aus She's got a delay pedal
Just realized there’s a new triplet effect on the A9… I assume you could use that?

33 years of djing and you’ve just blown my mind! Thank you 🎉
When maths and music go hand in hand, the result is obviously incredible ! Thank for the tips
music is maths
Well math won't help when you're beat matching without BPM meters. But you can certainly get a feel for things like this.
@@johanneschristopherstahle3395it will, tempo and compasses are math
@@ovotal This is becoming philosophical. For me time, tempo and so forth do exist without math. Math is a tool man did invent. Time did exist before and will for eternity.
@@VladTheSour Well, since we already know the answer (42), we know have to find the question. Could be hard to do this with maths.
I've never seen such a perfect and straightforward DJ tutorial
i love the way the transition creates a new song, completely unique vibe, i'm so into this
another cool thing that makes these 2 songs work is that the house track already has 3:4 syncopation (gtr chords), and the DnB track features triplets over 4/4 - so the 3 of the house track, and the 1/8th note of the DnB track sync up over quarter notes - in a sense keeping the 3 to 4 feel even though everything always feels like 2 bars of 4
Legit one of the best transitions I've seen and heard.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cheeky cheeky! Love it when math/music theory comes into play to make some wild transitions
A head a sweetheart and a genius!! Cecis dedication to the craft and their love for music oozes with evrything they do. My favorite dj and a huge inspiration to all us musick weirdossss
This is sooo excellent. Thank you! Very well explained. Very cool transition
Love to see Barker getting plays he's seriously underrated
One of my favourite artists:)
when you're talking about polyrhythms and Barker comes on. this is a soul after my own heart
in awe at the mix, I've tried similar things but this is someone with actual talent :) also note the A&H Xone92 + Boss DD200 - very similar to my own setup. Lovely!
Absolutely loved the tutorial. I'm extremely grateful for the clear communication from an expert. Much love ❤
Never thought skeptical and house would fit!
I love bass music so much and I wish some of my favorite DJs cared jusssssst slightly more about DJing itself lol. This was great.
Love this. Using math in my sets years ago def took them to the next level.
having that cheeky vocal hint on top of the maths❤❤❤
im in absolute awe with this
Room temp IQ moment
Neat. Not gunna lie, I was that gif of the lady with the math symbols flying over her head for a sec but it was great to see in action.
😂
Masterclass
This is dope 🔥

Love Only One! Thats a super off kilter 5/4 with how much percussions in there, mustve been a satisfying blend
Yeah 100% first thing I did after watching this video was load up a random 129 and a random 172. Can confirm it sounded like ass.
Damn I’ve always tried doing that but I never made a 3/4 loop. I just lazily layered them and came in at the 1. Never thought of this. So dope.
This is what me and Sam KDC did with Grey Area back in 2014. We used it as a way to bridge between techno and 170.
Big up.
Yo yes, sam kdc perfect for this kinda thing
@ASC Big up!
You, Sam and Lemna are the only people in the world who used to do this before this year; Thanks for the enlightenment guys
yea isnt that wild@@linnaleight2476
Amazing mix, thanks!!
This blew my mind
Very cool and clever
Classy, love it ❤
Heard about it, never seen it. Sick trick!
House & D&B
ok, it is actually also important that the higher bpm (drum and bass) track has bass playing in triplets, so that they match the 1/16ths of the looped house track.

brilliant shit. It actually took me some time to understand.
Shiiiiiit. This is brilliant 👌
Take the bpm you want to match and divide it by 0.75 and you will get the matching bpm number..
This is so sick
Smooth af!!!
amazing
This is a cool trick. especially with techno. You can add various effects on top of that 3/4 loop making it sound as if it was prod. The incomming 4/4 always grabs attention.
so sick, really helpful and fun video to watch!!!!
The concept is very interesting. Although I'm personally not super convinced when hearing the transition
It's not a great example! I've heard it done very well though. It's technically possible, not sure why they chose these tracks for this tutorial.
I agree.
yeah... it's not particularly exciting once you hear it. Maybe with a different song combo
Yeah it didn’t really work in actuality here.
its garbage,.
so smart and helpful! thank you for this 🎉
Nice🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Sick af!!!!!! That kind of tutorial please 🙏
nice and smooth
3 beat loop ya mean?
Clever stuff.
This is so helpful!
awesome!
Very smooth. Nicely done
CCL a master
This is very clever
Brilliant!
good video
wow!
clever trick. opens up some creative thoughts. loop a quarter bar during the transition perhaps?
this is wild
amazing, thank you!
Just tried it out, really cool! It helps if the 3/4 129BPM loop contains no percussion.
🎯 the example she used actually didn’t sound great to my ear but using a vocal only house loop is great…
@@kevdog5043the example they used
Very clever. 🎉
I read the title of this video and almost had a stroke
Great I do it sometimes using delay FX 3/4
ffffuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkk that's brilliant and masterfully executed!!!!
These CCL videos have been such a great series!
One thing that stood out to me though; how does the deck on the left auto-loop at the 3:24 mark?
Is that a CDJ feature I’m not aware of?!
You can set up auto-loops in rekordbox, it's pretty easy, give it a Google
Yep, you can set it up in recordbox!
That was sick
crazy !!
SICK
God damn that was cool.
this is real djing!
Great stuff and kudos for this!
For people hungry for more stuff like this I recommend the music of Nicolas Bougaïeff who focuses on exploring these tempo changes through music production.
Absolutely killer
This is so da** cool! 🎉
Very nice work
what’s the little grey device next to the mixer on the right?
How do I do the math for other BPMs? 🤔
My god you people are such idiots. It’s MATH. Basic math at that. Figure it out
Гениально!
This is ace!!
that was SICK
Literally next level
Totally amazeballs.
This shit totally slaps.
Djing will never be the same after this
genius
clean
how did you loop the two house tracks on the fly like that??
I believe she set an active loop, so once the track reaches the point where the loop is, it will active and loop the songs
exactly !
Very nice indeed.

Stereotyping is casual racism
This, kids, is why Maths is important.
flames tutorial from a flames DJ
How did the tracks just loop on theyre own..?
Big Brain djs unite
what is the small cdj on the far right?
XDJ-700, it's like a tiny CDJ but most functions are accessed thru touchscreen and it can't play CD
Sick
Cue a bunch of guys trying to get their two cents in
effin sick
this is so fucking sick
Neat neat
This is insane
