I can't say enough how helpful it is to get inside your head as you perform and explain to the students. I feel like I went for such a long time making little progress but have lately started to put things together with this access!
Good job in teaching the younger generation.. I started djing in 1988.. learn everything on our own. Beat matching, back spin, beat juggling and counting bpm.. I actually learned a few techniques from you.. with the latest technology people don't go old school anymore..
This is what I've been looking for! Transitions and explanations for when and why to use them! It took me a while to find this. Thanks Rob. I wish u and the academy were in San Diego. Straight forward and effective teaching strategies. Good stuff ;)
I like how you teach people Rob your the best RealTalk big bro One
great teaching rob!
i thought this was building your set with dj rob swift not sharing your opinions with other people who cant mix
Not yet! Gee!
😂
YEAH THIS VIDEO IS TRASH COMPARED TO OTHERS IN THIS PLAYLIST
Can anyone tell me where I can get that Gloria Estefan Conga Remix a little bit passed the middle of the video? It’s the one with the fatman scoop sample.
Thank u
5:49... I totally agree with him.
I wish I could attend this school. Where I live and propbably in most parts of the world there's no such thing as a school for Djs. We must learn everything on our own. Almighty God, thank you for youtube and tutorials. I wander how European DMC champion like dj Noize and the others could have learned everything without any source of knowledge?
+Justyna Nogala You can learn everything online, and if you feel to have a course, there some good schools can give you online course.
Djing itself isn't hard, special if you do auto sync / digital.
Vinyl and especialy turntablism is a different story
Practice.... Practice... Practice... more practice... then practice... followed by practice... embarrassment... more practice... practice.. adversity... practice... practice... more practice..
And of course practice with discipline yes
Problem is if you have no instructions you have no idea what you should be practicing... In worst cases you can memorize a bad habit which is very hard to lay off later on
Is it rane ttm 56s ?
If he was closer, I would take this class!
I wish I had the disposable income to join this academy...right now I'm just trying to teach myself through youtube...that guy's mix was good...my mixing skills are still not at that point
i want to join that class😣😣😣
That scratching though gadamn
i Noticed the students are using Reloops. whats everyones opinion on them ?
Use Technics.
question about terminology. you guys are teaching the "juggle" as a "backspin"? no disrespect. just wondering. I wish you had a school in my neck of the woods.
No disrespect taken BlendzGoneWild that's a fair question my dude. The original name for the technique you see me execute at the 1:43 mark is indeed a "Backspin". Grand Master Flash later coined it "the Clock Theory" (*self explanatory). When DJs like Steve Dee started using the "Backspin" technique to change or rearrange kicks, snares and high hats from a section of a song, WEST COAST Turntablists like Q-Bert started calling making a new beat out of a song "Beat Juggles". So over time, people started applying the term "Beat Juggle" broadly. Just know that there's a difference between a "Backspin" and a "Juggle". In other words, "Backspinning" revolves looping a word, sound or beat over and over. A "Beat Juggle" or "Juggle" as you said is described by turning one drum section or words into something totally different. So it's like taking LL Cool J saying "Rock The Bells" and "Juggling" the words so that it says "The Bells Rock". Hope that makes sense.
Rob Swift Right on man. I remember when just the task of going back and forth from one record to the next, looping the same points was just called mixing. It's like music.... now there are 20 different genres of house music... deep, electro, acid, progressive, etc. Not saying that I agree with it or it's necessary, just that it now exist. I guess it matters where you are from. Being from the bay area, a backspin was the transition out of a mix where you'd literally spin the record that was playing back, while bringing in the new one. Again, I guess it just depends on where you're from and when you were doing your thang. Thanks for taking the time to respond big homey. BB
BlendzGoneWild I agree, where you're from definitely affects the terminology we apply to what we do as DJs and Turntablists. I grew calling "looping the same points" as "CATCHING THE BEAT". Mixing to my DJ friends and I was just that, mixing or blending 2 records together.
Song @5:38?
The one seemed delayed
What bothers me is I guess you have to leave in NY to get this excellent instruction?? I'm in Maryland and can't drive to NY to go to school. I'm older, have a child, and I have full-time employment. So I gotta be "self taught." Thank goodness for youtube, huh...
Must be nice to have rich parents to pay for DJ camp in NYC
Yup! Meanwhile i'm out here grinding to afford to pay rent and still buy records.
They still learnt!
You don't know thier story. They are keeping Rob paid and letting the culture thrive through paying him.
Just learn on your own and save money
CCCL350 broke ass... get a job and save your money and buy your own set up....if you really want it
Dj RENA
Rob Swift seems like a really good instructor. How come they always interview Janelle?
The reason we interview Janelle and Oliver throughout each episode is because we just wanted to document the progress of those 2 students throughout the course of the semester.
And thanks for the compliment.
Excellent tutor.
Bruh I looked this school up and it costs $5000 to attend...🤯😞
Nonchalant81s if you’re in LA look into Beat Junkies Institute of Sound. Way cheaper.
Thank god this reality tv show style of videos didn’t stick around in these videos. That Oliver kid is hard to listen to.
If you did any of that in a club you'd get a pint thrown at you. People go to clubs to get wasted and dance to tunes not to hear a dj think he is showing off...
Lee OfBacup depends certain crowds actually like the scratching
Could of chosen a better song than that crap lol
