after having decks for a few months i just hit me one day.
hey what if make them each play at a certain speed so the drums hit at the same time as each other, that would be cool.
took me forever to get it right, but when i pulled it off, it was swish. i wondered why every other dj wasn't doing this, i must be a 14 year old genius!
then i realised they all were and i had no idea what i was doing all this time.
having someone show u from the start will really help you. the only danger of this is picking up their potentially bad habbits or copying their style (if they have any that is)
its all practice practice practice. dont expect to be anywhere near good in the fist year. i really mean that too.
learn how to beatmatch first. try not to touch the platter (u will be thankfull for it later)
next learn where to place tracks, you will find they all really want to go together and this is where it starts to become really enjoyable.
then trial with your eq's, record yourself, see what sounds nice.
hey presto you can mix.
now u just need to learn how to dj.
tip = selection > everything else (IMO)
