Songs you can't mix

[Fallen.GeMiNi]

Culture Shock & Brookes Brothers - Rework...I'm always slightly off when bringing it in, can't figure out how to hit it the right way lol

[Forau]

June Miller - Walls Of Jericho

This. Doing my nut in.

[prettyherb]

Hoogs- bouncy ball. That snare sounds always offbeat when i double drop it with another tune..

This. Doing my nut in.

also, basher - Androids is a fucking bitch.. only managed that a couple of times.. such a tuna doe

ok so i know where some of you might be going wrong.

with minimal intros... cue from the drop and get it beatmatched as spot on as possible. then cue it back to the start when you wanna start mixing it in.

some tracks may start with a very faint hi hat. turn up the trebble when cueing and you wil hear it better. you may have been cueing it from the place where the snare would be.

some intros sound a bit confusing and you nudge them to where you think they should fit making it off beat. dont trust your instincts , trust ur beat matching skills and let it roll. get to know ur tracks inside and out.

cant think of any examples but i have some tracks where the first beat/noise is the snare position or even the snare position before the first beat. they can be a twat to mix until you find this out.

Not a lack of technique, every once in a while a tune just doesnt agree.

Konflict - Messiah is the tough one for me...4U is also pretty tricky!

[JHSE23]

with messiah drop it when the dudes voice climaxes. aint the easiest though

[waynenoway]

mine is basher - androids, can never get that intro right!

There is a 16 bar section you can use. Depends how good you are to get it right though
