How to DJ - Ep. 1 (5/5) - Sarah Main - Entering The Scene

Episode 1 in DJdownload.coms exclusive How to DJ series comes to a close as Pacha Ibiza resident DJ Sarah Main explains about getting the best from your digital downloads before she shows us two different ways to mix two tracks together.

First up Sarah demonstrates the straightforward intro/outro mix, which is great for beginners. This is followed by an example of a more complex blending mix technique, as Sarah illustrates how to progressively layer elements of the incoming track over the outgoing track.

Now that Sarah has covered the basics of entering the scene, the How to DJ series takes a more advanced turn in the hands of two international DJ Jedi: Australias Phil K reveals his tips next in Episode 2, while the UKs James Zabiela presents his secret weapons in Episode 3.

How to DJ is produced by DJdownload.com and Ministry of Sound TV and features Sarah Main (Episode 1), Phil K (Episode 2) and James Zabiela (Episode 3).

She is awesome. The way she tutors is great, it reminds me of a cooking show (not to be sexist at all, its great). She is calm and has a great way of breaking it down for everyone. She isnt too hard on the eyes either! =D

I wish someone as easy to understand as her could make a lesson on how to DJ hip hop and rnb genre music. House is easy to mix, but hip hop and rnb have beats all over the place and seems too unpredictable for me :(
