Honestly been watching your vids for 10 years. Thank you so much for taking the time with these amazing lessons.

Man, this is two years old and helped me so much today. Thank you!

6 years old now and it helped me

It takes real talent to be able to break down drum and bass. And share the secrets rather than keeping them for yourself! 🙏

Thank you so much as I play drum and bass. Just love what you did at the end and how you made it more fun

That was good. I was watching the first transition and I didn't even notice you switch. I had to go back. Super smooth and informative as always.

Good video. I agree, it's all about the music journey and or experience of the mix/set. 😎

This is the fourth video ive watched from ellaskins on this subject. The first three ones you were just talking numbers, and i didnt understand anything :D This video gave me more confidence and a few tips, cheers!

Thanks for the tutorials, I can't get any old skool em action here so decided to learn mixing myself and bring the mid/late 90's to myself and hopefully some nasty warehouse on day :P

these are so fun to watch. thanks for sharing your knowledge, your passion comes through in your delivery with these videos. great stuff, nuff respect!

Great choice of music, Talisman is such a sick album!

THANKS BRUV, IVE BEEN FOCUSED ON PLAYING THIS WAY FOR SO LONG, BUT FELT LIKE I WAS NOT DOING IT RIGHT.

awesome bro ! love your tuts

You’re on the money mate!!

Love how you're not only numbers and schematics and also transfer the vibe of a dj. edit: found it! XD

Thankyou for making this video. The Led Lights help a lot, during High energy tracks.

Great tutorial as always! Will have to give mixing D&B a go one day!

Enjoyed the flex at the end of the video 🎉

Love the videos! Can you explain how you do the cue and spin back moves at the end?

Crazy good, come do a dnb set in Seattle, I'd go fo show.

great video bro, thanks man. :)

Yo thanks i have a question. Is it a problem that i dont use any programs?

love you sir,

Spot On !!

That's Nice

I've been mixing with the music vs beat for a long time though the technology allows for quick snap-to's I always prefer outros / intros and transition buildups as a crossover into the new song or* use the 2nd song popping in and out of the 1st. After that the mix of 20 songs have been compressed into a more progressive mix where some tracks are hashed out sections and other songs are fully played. :)

This is saving me

Those headphones look solid! What is the model?

Iv never been able to mix dnb, iv always found it tricky cis if all different hi hats n beat n cymbals etc...

running into this problem rn

what about vinyl dnb set

Hi there, I’ve just got my first set of decks, I’m quite good finding music that goes together well, does it not matter so much about “beat matching” and just creating smooth transitions between tracks? This would be really helpful, thank you!

Depends what ur trying to achieve. If you want dance floor dynamite, you need to be able to swiftly move from track to track around maybe 20+ tracks per hour, mixing out on the right bar, not just on beat. The thing is, when your tracks are TOO ‘Sandy’, it’s boring for other people and too safe n easy. I personally like to mix where the tunes compliment each other. They shouldn’t be too different (especially in bpm), but I like them to be different tonally. If turntable 1 is playing a muddy, bass track, I like to mix into a more staccato, drum 🥁 rich track, then maybe a track with horns, or whatever. Or maybe both tracks have a lot of percussion, but maybe one is Latin drums and the other is more electronic drums. I live the overlap of my mix to be clever and somewhat noticeable rather than too hidden. I also don’t want their bpm’s and beats 100% matching. I like a slight ‘off’/quantise because if a mix is vibrant (eg Jump up, jungle, clown step...) an urgency and tension is created for the listener as their body clock/metronome seeks to find order. U notice ur heart move up to ur throat when a DJ drops a tune with slightly off bpm, as he adjust the pitch gradually so it syncs up. If you mix too cleanly, people can literally fall asleep.

@@mrlawilliamsukwarmachine4904 Your heart moves up to your throat when a DJ drops a tune slightly off BPM because trainwreaks sound terrible. Mixing cleanly doesn't make people fall asleep bad tune selection does. A DJ who is awesome at beat matching,use of effects,scratching,double drops,the works can still bore a crowd if their tunes selection is shit. Just like a DJ who doesn't have many technical skill can absolutely smash a set by having a really good tune selection and reading the crowd well.

I have Dnb on my turntables that read 175 and 87 bpms. Im still learning how to mix and format my playlist by bpms and tempo/Key notation.

i have the same issue. I think that the software (rekordbox?) is reading it at half of the bpm that it actually is. 87 x 2 = 174. It still makes it hard to mix because of the mental math that has to go into it. Have you figured out how to change the displayed bpm of the track? if you did let me know lol

@esb618

@@SUPERPUKE on rekordbox, before analysing the track you can choose a bpm range for which the track is in, so if you chose a 110 - 180 bpm, the track would be displayed as 174 not 87, you might be using a range of 68 -138 which means the software thinks the track is 87 bpm

How do guys mix two intros which have no drum pattern or percs 😂 shit is wild

@patrickrauch4506

I am currently in the process of learning how to beatmatch. At the moment i have a lot of troubles trying to do it especially if there aren't any drums in the intros. A friend of mine who is really good at it told me that with a lot of practise i will be able to focus on other noises that help me to beatmatch correctly.

I used to always mix in key but once you understand your playlists keys become some what irrelevant my best ever sets are ones where i refused to check keys. mixing in key is safe but its boring and not exciting majority of the time...personally. DNB specific

is this guy always in a different apartment/house or what/ wtf

Can you please tidy that room. Much appreciated 😊
