    Attention new dj's! When you're learning how to beat match, try it with some slow tunes eg some hip-hop instrumentals, even if you just want to play house, techno, electro, trance etc. Reason being that once you master blending slower tunes you will find the faster ones much easier to mix as you'll notice the beats going off much quicker! Take care people & happy dj'ing! Peace.

      mhm... I actually disagree. I typically teach beat matching with simple house tunes. I find 4/4 kicks to be much easier to explain to beginners. Since the whole idea is a little difficult to explain I feel that it would be difficult to explain someone beat-matching with slower tunes that might have drastically different kick patters. Just my opinion. Not throwing shade or anything. It's a good idea definitely!

    It’s interesting you mentioned that as a DJ your ear is conditioned to know when a DJ is making a transition but the average person just dancing along doesn’t really care or hear it. I just started DJing few months ago but I always been fascinated with DJs that I think I developed the ear for it long long before o got my first mixer and pair speakers. So hopefully it helps me moving forward. Great video

  • @dutchhiphopfan050
    @dutchhiphopfan050 9 лет назад +7

    Its all about variety. I am not a brilliant beat matcher or scratcher but I make sure every song in a mix has a different type of transition. And if that isnt the case, I make sure I drop one of the songs in at the hook and the other at the verse for example. Messing around with volume, pitch, loops, incorporating EDM intro's or even mess around with effects is essential to be a dj in my eyes. Transitions are the moments you can impress, so be original.....

    Been watching your videos and really like your knowledge distribution. I myself have been DJing for a while now but I was only doing Dancehall/Reggae/Soca up to about 2006/ish. Seeing that I'm Jamaican I related more to that sorta music. Up to about maybe 8 or so years ago I started doing all types of genres and I find beat matching works great when you not only transition between songs of the same genre but when you are ready to change completely - like going from Soca to a Hip-Hop track with vast difference in BPMs.... Loving the videos and good job so far bro. Keep doing your thing!!

    You rock bro. I'm a mobile wedding dj who learned to mix by giving a cassette tape a quarter turn back to find the "one" (at the best fade out point). It always worked. In this new era, I felt I couldn't keep up with beat matching dj's, so I've been doubting my mixes. You've reaffirmed what I've always done......feel the song and crowd....cue the next banger....let it fly at the right time!

  • @DJDream609
    @DJDream609 9 лет назад +5

    over hear in New Jersey the music is a very big part of are culture. I just came from a big high school dance and i noticed something that amazed me. it was the hype part of the evening and i was mixing in another track, as the track was playing aloud i quickly realized that i counted the bars wrong so i decided to take out the incoming track and just drop it on the 1 at the end of the hook, however the "ahhh!!!!" moment happened in the middle of my mix before i took the incoming track out. so the crowd noticed the mix before the transition was over. so when i reintroduced the track by dropping it on the one the reaction wasn't as hype. (was playing RnB and Hip-Hop). it was a very successful night everyone danced and enjoyed them selves and i was booked for next years event on the spot. just a little something i noticed. by the way love the videos I've learned a lot from you and have been subscribed for a good while now. couldn't make it to the SSS part 3 this time though. keep sharing the knowledge - DJ Jay The Dream

    • @djTLMtv
      @djTLMtv  9 лет назад +6

      Jordan Watkins If the ahhh!!! moment happened in the middle of the mix your best option would have been to take out the old track and just let the new one continue (even though the count was wrong). The ahhh!!! moment will never be as strong the second time. Thanks for sharing!

    Bro, hearing you talk in this video is like listening to myself! I spin in that same style, build up the night with nice blends then when it's hype time bang em out! One of the reasons I like to drop em on the 1 is for the element of surprise. I feel it gives more impact when the crowd is going crazy. Of course some songs still get blended in the hype but depends on the songs and vibe... Nice video, the youngin's need to learn how build a night and you are definitely giving them good guidance!

  • @househeadspeakz
    @househeadspeakz 5 лет назад +1

    I enjoy your explanation TLM 4 you break it down for young DJs like me can fully understand. I would like to add that it solely depends on the genre. I notice most Hip Hop and R&B DJs drop it on the 1 while most House/Techno DJs beat-match. They use both methods but I know one is used more than the other. Like you said. There is no wrong way and DJs of all genre use both. I personally have dropped it on the one. Especially if one track is running out and there is no time to beat match it. It is good to practice dropping it on the 1, but since I am a House DJ, beat-matching is the #1 thing.

    • @djTLMtv
      @djTLMtv  5 лет назад

      100% House music leaves more room for long transitions. With Hip Hop and R&B we don’t get that too much. Mostly we have an 8 bar part for the transition
