►SCRIPT
Number 1
To make his mixes look flashy, and sound more exciting, Skrillex tends to backspin his previous tracks when transitioning
But Skrillex does not stop there with his backspinning. He also implements this technique to compliment Build Ups.
Sometimes Skrillex even uses Backspinning for the sake of getting that Backspin sound effect
Number 2
Let’s begin with his favorite and most used tool, the Filter Knob.
So Skrillex tends to High Pass Filter the current song when it’s about to reach its next section.
To add on to that he also implements using a Echo and Reverb Effects when High Pass Filtering
And sometimes he just uses a well timed Echo effect
But what’s not easy though is Skrillex’s next technique which implements using the volume fader and high pass filter.
Though Skrillex only tends to use the Echo and Reverb effect when mixing, he sometimes uses the roll effect to also accent his songs
This works great during otherwise boring sections in tracks like breakdowns and outros. And so with his accenting techniques covered, let’s now move on to his mixing style.
Number 3
So Skrillex doesn’t always beat match his songs. Sometimes he even just plays them in. The trick to doing this though is proper timing and counting.
So Skrillex first prepares his next song by cueing it up at section right before it hits the 1, which should be a down beat, then he moves on to the effect section, activates a reverb effect, stops the current song when it reaches the end of it’s phrase, then plays the next song on beat
Transitioning like this is one of the easiest ways to shift genres and BPMs when you’re completely in tuned with your timing and counting. But what happen when you’re not? Well Skrillex implements 2 really cool techniques that get him out of bind when mixing.
Number 4
When Skrillex get’s his counting off one way he easily fixes that is by making a 1 beat loop on the song he’s mixing from
By doing that he gives enough time for his next track to reach its next section. Because the loop on the current song offsets the difference.
If there’s not enough time though to make a loop, the last resort Skrillex tends to fall to is to use a backspin on the previous song right before the next song mixes in
All you need to remember though, is that if you’re in doubt, backspin,
Number 5
Skrillex keeps the energy of his mix up by mixing to the next song’s chorus section right when the current song’s chorus ends.
The trick to keeping things hyped is that he mixes the next song’s build up section when the current song’s chorus section hits. So that when the current song’s chorus ends, the next songs chorus begins.
