[zinonas83]

@ellaskins HELP ! WHEN THE 2 tracks are the same bpm then we can do beatmatching???sry 4 my english!

[Chirsbom]

@zinonas83 jupp.. when the tracks are rotating at the same beats per minute, bpm. also there are segments in the songs, they are usually buildt up similarily. try to start and mix in track b on a sement that are sort of the same as track a. if not there can be a suprise during the transition ;) he has an old video about this i think?

[Sky7368]

"Houston's wanted list includes not, i think that it's not listening and finding the best place, not belive he could not be great. But you know the elections but you can't do that you could have spending limits without, even having won't be done with the other."

[chasno283]

ur a funny bugger

[DJRalex]

Awesome! Now I´m a actually very new in the whole DJ-Beatmatching-Business so I´m definatly gona try this out! Thanks J!

[Aengusdope]

Alex Goudino is usin Drop A lot! :) I'l see you in Ministryofsound!!

[danny5766]

whats the cdj called on the left - it looks stunning

[DeeJayBounce]

It has a sticker on the face.

[password34]

search: DJ BL3ND. This is like all he does

[vibes4321]

To me if you can't beatmatch you would have a hard time finding two songs that go so well together as the ones you used in the video. I think you should have picked some songs with a greater disparity.

[cjnjc10]

why does the transcribe keep dropping it words to do with politics?

[scousejimmy1]

beat mixing was so easy for me as a 14 year old lad.i got to the stage were i could put one tune at min 8 and another tune at max 8 and i would have them beats mixing perfect within 30 seconds.i was doing it with my eyes closed and that was on a set of technics.never tried to push me self with it tho.just loved mixing.am now in my 20s and am thinking of getting into the laptop djing.seeing as it is a lot cheaper then any other format.

[flinchhdubstepp]

what mixer you got mate?

[chris3162]

ive seen all your videos and you are amazing but in this video you are hillariously high

[alover951]

he is gd and funny

[HilaryB30]

so can you construct a whole set on just dropping one track into the other?

[ANGELO13111]

@HilaryB30 yes you can.

[apieceoftofu]

wow its so simple but it sounds pretty damn good! nice mix bro

[sauvagemusic]

what's going on at 3:40 ?

[sauvagemusic]

CRAZY BESTERD! 

[MrBlaZeAdOoBiE]

If your playin out in a club and you don't know how to beatmix, youve got problems.

[ramzevans]

CAN'T BEATMIX TO SAVE YOUR LIFE THEN DON'T DJ FOR MONEY! YOU'RE RIPPING THE PEOPLE OFF THAT PAY U!

learn to beatmix with a combination of patience and persistence and of course plenty of hard work.

This whole idea of this John guy preaching 'practice and enjoy' but in the same breath saying 'if you can't beatmix, just use the drop, which anyone with half a brain can pull off' makes no sense at all!!

[aznstylz701]

sounds simple but can you only do that with the sounds of the music kind of souding the same?? as in the FX and stuff...cu i mix like hip hop remixs and tried the beat drop and have failed many times hahaha....either that or i wasnt paying attention to this vid as much as i should have ..... ummm do you have a facebook?? cuz most of my mixes are on there..the ones on my youtube account are mixes of my old stuff i uploaded..

[mynamesmatt111]

nice 800 skin !

[JulzBasti]

Can you be my dad? D: My dad's a DJ as well but he just sux at teaching me all about DJ-ing. lol

[nicolasnati91]

@JulzBasti well man then learn by yourself just like most of the djs do ;) at least that's what i've done :P

[JulzBasti]

@nicolasnati91 It's easier said than done. Specially when you have no equipment to start with. =P

[nicolasnati91]

@JulzBasti oh well than you're right :P you could be a theoretical dj then haha

[meAbroad]

You and your tutorials are awesome! :)

[Dav3Mash]

Sometimes I use this technique too, but in a different way.

Usually, when I know, that in the running track a breakdown comes in, I'm starting the next track on the last beat of the running track before the breakdown comes in. This way

[jigibao]

funy vid part 2 ..lady's end gent's thank you for watch'n... piss and joy to everibody...ps-pardon my bad english.?!

[therealdjzim]

John, how about some tips on hip hop and rb drop mixing? MikeN DJ ZIM

[WannabeWakeman]

he's definately on something in this video - but brilliant none the less thanks matey!

[didray]

So funny and useful !!!! Thanks Jonathan

[tawkinhedz]

gotta love vivaynce perscriptions

[fantomelu]

what remix of Martin Solveig c'est la vie is that? it`s not the original track that`s shure!

[fantomelu]

gotta to love those cdj skins...there just lovellyyy!

BTW, anyone knows what remix of Martin Solveig c'est la vie it`s the track in the vid, cuz it aint`t the original one.

[myloisalegend]

Most DJs in commercial clubs tend to do this. If they can't beat mix to save their lives why they getting paid? IMO get someone who can do it!

[sheepyuea]

Turning the captions on for your videos is waaaay too funny.

[RedRavenRuler]

i like it when Dj's do that occasionally but for every song to drop in like that makes the energy from it get lost

[MattTheDrummerDude]

wow i never knew this thanks

[mrplowify]

BLAHHHAHHAHAHA. maaaateeee. i uuuunderstand. you's a crack up. 'thangyu'

[daveofdefeat]

This is damn hilarious. STIMULANTS FOR THE WIN!

[anounTT]

Please don't make videos again while you are high on sharpie markers.

[o0Drew0o]

loving the cover on the cdj.... nice videos mate!

[poddagod]

love the cdj 1000's thrown in the background.

[xaqlim]

@poddagod it's a 800 not a 1000 you can see it at the play/pause and cue buttons

[ksuz1]

@xaqlim please ... 2:41

[xaqlim]

@ksuz1 yeah sorry i've seen it too late, tried to cancel post but you're right

[spacecowboy22]

i just wanna be free free cest la vi!!!!!!!!!

[rammsteinohnedich]

Wow, thats pretty good.

[DudasMiska]

PAUL VAN DYK is the fuckin GOD when it comes to this trick, well and making the crowd go nuts in general :P

[zhhrah]

"the politics had hit back at spiritual level it was with legitimate stress"

[lucagasgas]

Yes, but I meant the one under the cdj

[DeeJayBounce]

Turn the transcribe audio closed captions on. Makes the video a lot more interesting.

[remcoIJ]

@DeeJayBounce Haha It translates:Very simple to A state of Israel XD

[wellaman5000]

@DeeJayBounce make the crossfade landslide into the other trap ...

[dosones1]

@DeeJayBounce LOLOL @3:38 he does a weird ass noise and the close captioning says "loner" XDD

[DjMrTaz]

CDJ 800. with some skins on it.

[DjMrTaz]

but the mixer on the BOTTOM left.

is the djm 600 with some skins.

[lucagasgas]

No, it's a djm800 with a skin

[ThepinkeyElla]

Big lol at the CC!!! pinkey!

[rusutudor94]

Yes this is very useful!! I like your vids man keep it going !

Practice and enjoy!

[TheCrazytommy]

what is the mixer on the left called

[sleevless]

@TheCrazytommy....I think thats an pioneer 600 with a skin on it.

[6Bert9]

well it's not a mixer, it's a cdj...I think it's the pioneer cdj 1000mk3

[TTench6]

no its the 800

[KurzWFaderze]

Pioneer Cdj 800 mk 1/2

[elliotkieranhawe]

@KurzWFaderze mk2

[KurzWFaderze]

yes . I forgot about silver buttons ;)

[YaGiMaStaZ69]

haha your explain is great

[djmattclay]

CC is funny as hell lmao

[Paavi20]

This is something you'd be better off doing all the time if you need to play several styles and/or take requests. My work as a dj is 75% drop mixing actually. There's absolutely nothing wrong with doing so...

[IDJohio]

I always love your enthusiasm. The skins look good you Numark hater;) Dude I thought I was bad on coffee. Now I feel better. Practice everday, & soon it will come naturally. Lickable Clink he says.

[jimmygear]

knowing the music helps when you do this!

He should have said that earlier...

Great tip!

[82mistam]

3:35 :-D hella funny!

Practice and enjoy.

[djaq000arkadian]

I loled so bad at the CC feature lol omg lol im reading english to Engliesh

[andvinegarontop]

HAHA

This CC feature is the shit.

"Practice and enjoy" became "Thanks as usual".

Sweet.

[DjMandril]

well this works perfectly because the tracks are very similar, shouldn't be that easy but it's a great resource to play a similar track after a build up and release, specially if you can't beatmatch the tracks, some have lfos, double snares and strange things that can make them difficult to beatmatch

[uptownxpress]

hahaha, fun point :)

[yourthebhoy]

proper England!!!

[getntheredj]

Perfect.

[DJStereoTypical]

Just how meny glasses of wine had you had before you started recording this?......lol

[rate4ever]

Lost it xD

I like that u rly enjoyin the practice :)

Well done btw :P

but beatmixing is a must if you are playin in clubs :P

Why dont u play in Clubs J ? :D

Id love to c u to a set :)

[djmichaelcolucci]

great lesson. I might have to use this technique some time. You seem like a really fun person to be around. nice

[friskpige21]

Are you high? :D

[woolensheep192]

thanks for your help and nice hat ;)

[SuperSaiyanGaz]

always cool vid's, i agree with Anthonypepers, Im not 2 confidant in setting the right KEY, so if u were so kind as to demonstrate please.

thanks

[djsmithy14]

that drop was epic im goner go and try it like that

[djsmithy14]

this video is great you put so much energy into your videos and you have inspired me alot to make videos of my own

practise n enjoy

[JJskorzecin]

it was perfect ;D

[royrenero]

i whould first learn "beatmatching",

"droping" only sounds richt when it got the tracks at the right bpm.

and how do you get the tracks at the right bpm?

yea right by "beatmatching".

if you use your bpm reader's they can fool you,

case the bpm reader aren't always right,

its better to mix whit feeling that with reading,

practice and enjoy ;)

[Anthonypepers]

If u can make a tutrorial about how To avoid KEY or NOTE clash if u r mixing 2 songs with different keys that would be amazing PRACTICE N ENJOY!

[austinmackert]

Haha.. I got a nice laugh out of this one. :)

[djbassline8]

Jonathan, I really like that you don't cut your vids. That makes them so unique with all those little mistakes :)

BTW: The new Youtube CC function is really great. Watch this vid with subtitles, priceless.

[mccarth719]

dude u are the man

[DJJRod1]

he is completly tru

[rushentertainment]

lol you are too funny

[steveshort4steven]

I dont's even need my head phones to beat match but damn I have a hard time dropping tracks. I don't know it just doesn't sound right.

[BOBBYBLENDZ]

2:25

kids, please...."JUST SAY NO!"

[theillestboYee]

Drop mixing can be GREAT when the crowd wants you to play a song that can't be mixed into what's currently playing. I do it all the time.

[gilboogie]

I hate "drop" mixing but that really did sound good!!! Props to you!!!

[bioskyline]

lol crossfader!. i hate it when the brain dont work!

[Totothemonkey]

Mate you are worth your weight in gold..... thank you for your continued videos that teach the basses..... where's the braincells gone... LOL

[willywonka6]

i love your random moments in all your tutorals where you space off or get distracted.

[sk8rleolopez]

i love how u always have cd players and mixers just laying around......

[oscarvgn11]

wer the hell does this man get his speed from ? its must be good ! coz he can go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

[ehsan83]

[carlownox]

U r amazing man! very helpfullllllllllll . Yo

[r3nc3k]

[DJRhinofart]

That looks like the 800 MK2 to me ;p

[DJRhinofart]

Ah never mind! You're talking about the 1000 over in the laundry basket! LOL my bad.

[ALMOSTlikeRODNEY]

Now with some mixers that'll automatically start the track on your cue point when the crossfade is moved to the other side...

That was a very funny tutorial mate! I laughed very hard at
