If you don't know your tracks well enough to have enough time to pick a track and do phrase matching (wtf with beat matching?) at the same time then you are not a DJ. You are a glorified juke box. Spotify with a face
I tried this in my college Christmas party, and yeah, they think I'm the best DJ, really I've been selecting random tracks and they sound good together playing in time XD this is really great!!❤️🖤
The fact that is sounds so clean…amazed me. not as easy as it looks. You really need to know your music and the timing of the phrases to make this happen.

Know your music, know your audience, and most importantly know yourself. Find the maximize your talents zone. It's confidence and just a splash of ego, but with humility which makes you likeable. Sure, it's fun as hell to show up haters who doubt you, but it's a much easier battle when they are already on your side.

Still Jockeying Discs just not fading across tracks. sometimes hot dropping tracks in like that is really cool though. I like to do that when a track comes in really fast and hard. Sometimes a sudden drop in of a popular track can make the audience go nuts. Awesome feeling when everyone suddenly realizes the song you dropped in is exactly what they wanted.
This is usually done when you want to mix in a two songs with a higher and a lower BPM. Funny enough there's no way you can do this without knowing how to bit match 😂
Good Gawd DJ Carlo, these are great tips, Thank you for always sharing your knowledge Brother!! You are truly one of the BEST DJ Trainers in the industry!!! 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
OMG Please do a FULL vid tutorial on this!!!! I love ALL genres of music so beat matching is a real challenge when I want to go from Twista to Two Door Cinema to Alesso to London Grammar to Tesla Boy to Kings Of Leon and stop by at The Gorillaz 😝
That's fair! Though this technique allows you to switch BPM ranges too in one go, which the breaks don't allow. Also, need to point out, so many songs nowadays don't have versions with breaks anymore! I really wish extended versions never went away
"Just do this and this and this, easy peazy". .... none of these videos tell you how to actually do these things. "Add a little flux capacitor while we reverse the proton flow of the increasing decreasement upon entering backwards from up front". Cool, but how do we do that?
The shorts don't explain as much, but the full tutorials give in depth explanations about all the techniques. Check those out if you want a further deep dive into these techniques! Hopefully those explain these enough 😅
@@djcarlo thanks, i wasnt sure if there was an app that automatically overlayed it like that because I have seen several videos that overlay it like that now
Ah! Take a recording of your screen when using your DJ software, then overlay that footage with your controller shot, and turn down the opacity of the screen recording. Easy stuff once you get the hang of it! :)
@@djcarlohow do you set it so it does that only when you want it to? It only did the vinyl break when you stopped the song for that transition, the other times it was a clean stop.
A little thing about this video, the actual New Rules track with Dua Lipa got hit by a copyright strike. Had to re-do the audio, but I've honestly forgotten what I used. The rest of the songs are still the same as the original tutorial though.
Love the techniques. But why the same songs? I get it, practice songs, royalty free. But that Natty Natty is really getting old. But other than that, I absolutely love your tutorials!!!! I want to learn each one!! (Without those songs! Lol).
You just answered your own question! Took a lot of trial and error, but I whittled my songs down to a handful of tracks that won't get the videos taken down. Otherwise, we wouldn't have any tutorials left
@@djcarlo a guy on the radio is djing when he plays one song after another. i would say how to dj without beatmatching, a drop has and will be part of dj'ing forever
@@djcarlo oh I see. You vinyl stop on the first as you were mixing in the chorus of the next track. Sorry. I’m a Traktor guy so the layout of the waves had me a lil confused haha
The biggest mistake here is thinking that this technique is being lazy. Doing this right, especially for songs with iconic intros, will make for good club reception. Just as long as this isn't you're ENTIRE set 😅
Lazy af! New Dj's don't use this trick. This is what you need to learn. #1 beat matching #2 beat/track phrasing. #3 key mixing F$%k cue points, loops, and Fx. Start with the basics and learn the technical tricks later on.
Okay, before you get your knickers in a twist, this is a real technique used when songs have iconic intros. Maybe not for the genres you play, but for hip hop and open format DJs, this is a pretty useful technique! Of course, this should be used sparingly and with a good choice of songs, not with EVERY song
