    Great educational vid on transitions, you should do more tutorials...Very Few DJs on CZcams cater to open format, mobile DJs...Respect on your skills.

    That was awesome vid btw ! You don't see much vids dj's doing weddings or parties on film like that. That's cool ! Plus let some people understand how hard it is for the set up and things go wrong and fix.

    DJ Reality show! I could watch a lot of this. I couldn't agree more on the 2 minute rule. Keep it moving.

    I loved how you brought in "Jessie's Girl" and I loved how you demonstrated at a live gig the correct way to mix in and out quickly and smoothly and not alienate your audience. Hats off to you bro! You did a great job!

    Great video! Glad you're willing to share those mixing tips, I realize how much practice I need though.

    Dude... your transitions were really on point! It's really difficult to blend 80s pop music but you did it effortlessly. Awesome!!

    Great video. Always good to see the behind the scenes. See what transpires with the DJ before the event and to the event. Some people probably think that a DJs job is easy. Well they need to see a video like this, especially if they think of running a DJ business

    Bravo my brother!!! Love the way you DJed the event. I'm thoroughly convinced that no one knows that the sounds they are currently partying to are orchestrated by me LOL. I've been djing since 1980 & now I've had a residency since 2009 every Fri & Sat night. Love geeking to your info keep it going Bro! Bye the way I'm also the sound engineer & I use a DDJ SB3 or what ever else I can hook into another channel controlled by the crossfader, lol.

  • @MrDJBigKing
    @MrDJBigKing Před 4 lety

    Very good vlog! I like the fact that you open this up to the process, the good and the bad, the ugly, the unexpected, but the reason why you do what you do. I'm going on year 17 DJing and the one advice that I will probably give the young guys who starting out or wanting to start, is to look at a video like this to let him see the behind-the-scenes look and the prep that goes into it.

  • @sinistai.z.3622
    @sinistai.z.3622 Před 4 lety +1

    I guess you already knew you was rolling that cord wrong.🤣🤣🤣 I totally enjoyed this vlog. And the word you was looking for during sweet dreams was the "bridge" which most songs now a days don't have.

  • @hhaarmann
    @hhaarmann Před 4 lety +10

    Hi Terry, the thing with 80’s music is that beat gridding is not really an option as the beat grids are all over the place. Can you make a video or explain what would be the best way to prepare and mix 80’s tracks? Loved this video a lot, it is exactly what other bloggers don’t show. Loved the comments during mixing. Keep it up, love your channel.

    • @mazusub8182
      @mazusub8182 Před 4 lety +6

      Henk Haarmann try to prep your tracks before the parties or at the party on the fly setting up loops on little instrumental parts (with no vocals) if the song at the intro or after the break or chorus or before verses don’t give you enough instrumental break to blend in the next song... that’s like a little cheating getting around it trick to blend in the new song and gives you time for beat gridding usually in Serato you can save a lot of looping parts by locking them down and they stay recorded in whatever song forever until you delete it manually... I do that with a lot of the 80’s and 90’s songs or if you want to save yourself the trouble of spending time doing that... then just buy a lot of remixe packages that DJs sell on DJs websites like funky mix, select mix , party bangaz, retro remixes, etc there’s a few more if you google it...and they have a section that only dedicates/ caters to 70’s 80’s 90’s 2000’s or even older music and their remixes are so good with intros and outros and hype intros before the first verse...hope this helps you.

    • @hhaarmann
      @hhaarmann Před 4 lety +2

      Mazu Sub that is some solid advise. Tried beat gridding just per phrase but was not enough. Like the part about the remixes as well. Thanks so much.

    • @hhaarmann
      @hhaarmann Před 4 lety +1

      Guilty as charged... I sometimes do it as well when I’m done with a gig and I want to pack it all up together quick. I was thinking of buying a reel for that, just did not find the right one yet.

    • @joannelindsay4977

    Thanks for the vlog , i have an 80's corporate gig tomorrow. they wanted me to send them a list of my 80's music. I told them the list is to big, just send me a list of music you may want for the hour cocktail and eating period. She sent 18 songs and said could you play them in this order. SMH, but its a repeat client that i perform for year round. So one event with a play in this order event will not kill me. Its not a dance party. Keep em dancing
