You're one of the funniest, most personable, and informative teachers I've ever found. Thanks, dude.
I made this video for the people who didn't know how to mix DnB.
You know how! good for you, they do not, so perhaps after a few tutorials from me and other people one day they will, and in turn they will help others.
This is all i want.
thanks

ellaskins Mad props for just playing out and sharing your skills!! Great Tunes as well. Now if you could do a half time dnb to dnb mix..I’m struggling there.
14 ish years later and your lessons are really making an impact on my progress, thanks dude
man, you're the best!
why do still people think these tutorials would be useless? ifyou don't need them, don't watch them, you're not forced to watch this!
i hate those people, who think only because they know how to do something, the others wouldn't have to learn it...
so, shut up!
thanks for your great help, johnathan!
now i know why there's a fire extinguisher in the background, those songs are top
+TETYYS what if the mix gonna have too much fire in it :P

Really nice video ellaskins !!! Someone just gave me the heads up on your video, telling me you had used one of my tracks in your video (trick a tek remix), lol that put a smile on my face, keep up the informative videos john, you are a super star dj !!!, plus a very very good presenter !!!
all the best from P.O.T
That mix into shock out is bloody brilliant mate every time I hear the tune it reminds me of you and this video
Just watched this - really helpful, and you're a really easy person to watch! Subscribed
Feel like I'm so late to this party but I'm here, learning and very grateful.
love your no nonsense explanations. good stuff.
Missed this video, you have some great tutorials mate, big respect.
what a tune to bring in love danny byrd
I normally dj techno and I've been trying to learn to mix D&B, you're video is absolute fucking gold. hasn't aged even a little bit.
Always fun to watch, john your a legend mate
Great tutorial, I've mixed trance for a couple of years and was wanting to mix different genre's brilliant tutorial mate!
what a lovely bloke !! just good too actually meet ( if you like ) someone this genuine ....had me watching all his posts ...looool
Nice man, you make nice movies! I just recently started to DJ, a friend of me has a proper set and he helps me. He is not into dnb but I am, so these movies help out a lot! :) do you have any tips or advice when it comes to easy dnb songs to start of with? Like a track set of 8 numbers so I can practise with those. Thanks in advance!
In d'n'b, the kicks rarely land on the third beat. It's usually the 3.5 or the "three-and," halfway between the 3 and the 4. This is what makes it a breakbeat.
Sometimes even the second snare doesn't always land on 4 either. Often in drum and bass which incorporates the 'Think' break, the snares land on 2 and 3.5. But in this case, the chances are that there will be one kick for every 2 snares
Nice work bringing out the P.O.T. tune! Love 'em!
very good tutorial, one of the best
You are soooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny. More importantly you taught me the importance of the snare. Thank you. Now I can DJ.
You are just ahsum m8 =D I love your tut's and everything.. Helps me much
thanks
look forward to it!
j
You make it look so easy!
Great tutorial, helped me mix DnB!
calm down. you keep saying how you are not so good, and your like "i mean i am pretty crap" but you are an amazing teacher. and i love all of your videos. they are so much help. im just starting to scratch and mix and you have taught me alot and given me a lot of encouragment.
=]
quality video, mate!
cheers
When you're mixing drum n' bass and you've got two songs beatmatched (ON VINYL), will they remain in sync until they finish, or will they slowly go out of step; therefore requiring very slight pitch adjustments while they're playing?
Brilliant tutorials thank you very much
thanks
Thank you man, ur awsome !
Yay!!! Mines the 200th comment.... this guy is legend.... love the way he explains stuff.....I believe in two things, if someone makes something looks easy and makes you think "yea I could do that " and then you try to do it and fail..then who explained it is damn good (they made it look easy) ......secondly I never thought rhythm could be tought ......apperantly I was wrong lol..... thanks for the upload 😁
Of course it can be taught... they teach you that stuff in music school :P
Nice vid mate. Enjoyed that =)
cheers ellaskins, i really like your tutorials, just 1 question m8, why do you prefer the hi hats to snare when you mix drum and bass? so many ppl say that, easier to find the snares, and I noticed same. By the way Im beginner in DJ-in'. Its a quite old video, hopefully, u will respond.
really awesome m8!
hey mate,sorry, was that chop it up on the 2nd beat (snare) ???
Thank you Ella
i total feel it man thats a good way for beginers iv bin mixin for a wile and its grown on me but that way is spot on man respect vortecx !!!
thanks very much, looks like I'm gonna have to keep making tiny adjustments then
This helped me out so much, absolute boss cheese
i am beginning to dj and i need to now if its good for me to mix real music or just rithums
Which EQs do I have high or low as a generally rule of thumb on main track and incoming track please?
nice and easy to understand
As written in the information:
Tune is Danny Byrd - Shock Out
Can someone advice me a good tool for beginners?
Thx alot for that video, I like DnB and breakbeat, but I dont really know how to mix it. That really helps me. As your vids usualy do :)
... I guess if you was my math teacher in school, I would have passed with 15 points instead of 4. Great job Johnny !
Please do some comedy vids again, I miss all the funny guys you are, lol !
Oh and by the way, great T-shirt drawing skills dude ;D
Cheers,
F
thxxxxxxxxxx!!
more tutorial on using da mixer would be goodddd!
nice nice one. btw (noob alert!) what's the title of the second song?
Dope shirt..
Maan in 12 years thats still a really really good equipment
I love how the camera jumps when you do the kick drum @ 1:08 :D
you are such a boss
keep try it thx man
you're the best!!!!!!!!
what are you asking about exactly?
at 6.43 how did u know the drop was in.. ?? like when the other tune sed technology the other one dropped in.. ?? i keep seeming to miss the drops like this.. not off beat but not on the drop if use know what i mean.
because he is awesome
@amenKilla
Totally agree with you mate, I was mainly thinking for newbies to beatmatching, to get them out of the habit of touching the plate too much at the beginning. Once the mix is in and its live to the audience, you need to touch the plate to catch it if one is going out of time
Man, I love u. Thank you very much, I'm from Russia, but I understood everything that you say, cuz you have very good british accent. Are you from England? :)
which drum is the snare? the round one right?
ooooh the snare is the round drum? i thought it was the triangular one
ha great vid J, you've taught us how to mix it, but can you PLEASE teach us how to dance to the bloody stuff...damn, if someone told me to dance to that id be like:
"wha??...."
how to mix
mashup with dubstep,grime ,glitch hop or crunk hip hop...??
anyone ideass??
ok ok ok
i wanna learn how to like "make beats" "remixing" "deejaying" and stuff...
where should i start?
Whats the name of the first track?!
in drum n bass the snare normally keeps the same tempo, its the kick thats the offbeat.. so its like kick----snare.. kick-snare
really need The prisoner of technology vs T.M.S trick'a'tek
whats the song ? plz
the beat that you explained is in fact more a typical hip-hop beat, kicks on 1 and 3 ( and then another kick halfway between 3 and 4 ). the d'nb beats have got the kick ( again typically ) not on the third beat but halfway between 3 and 4.
@anao22 This same poster has a great vid where he explains how to beatmatch. Basically, think of it like two cars racing side by side. If one is going faster, it quickly gets ahead. So the slower record has to go at an even *faster* speed to catch the other up. Then when they draw side by side, the track which was originally going slower is now the faster track, so when it gets ahead you have to slow it down quite a bit to have it drop back into line with the other car.
Depends if theyre perfectly in sync, then yea they should continue in sync, if they dont change tempo ofc.
super
Thanks
thanks
Nice!

Shock OUT!
song names?
bib up from Poland/Ireland :)
Łódz city Limerick city :)
Heads up peeps !!!
New album by The Prisoners Of Technology has just become available on itunes and amazon !!! A 9 track album "Battlemaster Sessions Vol 1" ............. n-joy
gawd that guy was funny, i actually kept my concentration, cheers :D
has anyone got anytips on how to beatmatch when using software? the bpms don't fully match so i always end up using the sync button rather than match it
i do use the pitch faders but it still increases it by about 0.53 bpm every time i move it rather than 0.1 bpm
use the pitch bend man :) sometimes you get tracks that just time themselves out of eachother anywayz (i find this happens alot djing like hardtek and shit) use the pitch bend control to keep it in line and just remember what tunes need it
What a top bloke brilliant explanations mate starting out as a noob and love my drum and bass so this is great thank you.
yeah mate, its same i reckon.. maybe lower bpm, tis called 2step drum pattern i believe
buen video amigo eres bueno para explicar de una forma muy extraña pero buena XD
GREAT video mte how i found ur other 1s lol
i have a big problem with bpm's cause it doesn't be all the time in same speed, it varies too much times...and i lost the mix, cause one song be more fast than other, so i feel a very big difficulty to control it...:S
my mann nice videos this shit helps a lot u have no idea
Danny Byrd - Shock Out
finally got the shirt to match the hat
Kinda sounds like circles by Adam-F
that chop was nasty
I count 1,2,3 AND 4. Seems to work
sorry but whats the names of the tracks please?
close your eyes and derren brown is a dj instructor
all i really struggle with is matching the pitches together, I can never get it right, actually being creative after is no problem its just getting to that point of having them at the same speed I really struggle with
Ok so how is it now? Did you learn to beatmatch :D?
Practice N Enjoy ! :D
word!
What controller has those funky LEDs on the platters?
Those are pioneer CDJs
LOL. No sync button, not what you are looking for...
Ry Hu excuse me? Was that directed at me? If so, huh? I currently use the pioneer DDJ-SB2, and I don't use the sync pad at all, because it makes both songs snap to sync rather than the cueing track snapping to sync in the background.
Yeah, who wants to use headphones for cueing right? I mean, everyone knows they belong around your neck (the iconic symbol of the DJ) and not on your ears for cueing...
Danlows1 HAHA! you're mad.
THHHHAAAAANNNX BRROOOOO!!
