Absolutely agree! The guy is a legend and there is a lot more to cover than just one transition for example the way he uses acapella with tech-house is insane.
I love how Carlo teaches on the ddj 400! That way emerging djs can do Martin garrix skills too! It shows that a good dj can dj on any type of equipment cheap or expensive👍
I was always curious what Martin Garrix did with his set and I also could follow this even thought I don't know anything at all about ''DJ'ing'' , so thank you for this! (I only didn't really understand the last bit)
I've never seen anybody explain what a DJ does while they are back there twisting knobs. I know everybody is going to have their own individual style which is what should make a DJ unique from others out there. I have zero experience as a DJ but have always wanted to know some of the basics of how it is done. So for me your explanations in a sense laid a basic foundation that I hope will enable me to build from. Thanks for the info, I do appreciate it.
Originally it was blending two records together at the same time, while controlling speed, eq levels, and other details to make seamless transitions from one record to the next. Eventually it became a skill contest as tricks were developed to make it more entertaining. Cutting, scratching, juggling and mixing are techniques used for vinyl djing.
Martin is amazing, personally I don't like it when music producers fake djing just as a way to play they're music but Martin is a insane and inspirational DJ
@@austinrobertson6160 that is just absolutely not true in any shape or form. Ben UFO is phenomenal at mixing and is found seamlessly going from track to track with only perhaps a couple of minutes of the full track exposed. His recent 2019 Dekmantel Boiler Room is a clear example of that. Of course he plays the right track at the right time but there’s just way more to the complexity and art of his mixing
Really helps to be able to mix like this when you're using EDM tracks that have distinct builds and drops. When you mix regular techno, these techniques don't apply the same.
This is very useful to me as a beginner. Thank you. I'd love to see some techno or deep house DJs like Carl Cox, Nicole Moudaber, or the Claude VonStroke :)
Love these insights. Like these types of reviews. Brings to light how different DJs do their thing and how we can emulate them while making it our own. Great work as always. Love how you make this so transparent. Carl Cox should be next!
how about someone who doesn’t mix solely big room shit... there’s other house, dubstep, and electronic genres that do more mixing then the “classic” build up switch track new drop technique that’s been used for almost every UMF
Carlo, I love these artist breakdowns/analyses. I’ve got a challenge for you… do a drum & bass DJ! Consider: Andy C, Dimension, and/or Delta Heavy (they all have different styles - pick whoeverS you like!). 🙏🏼
@@djcarlo AMAZING, you responded to me! 🥰 Hey Bro 👋🏼 That sounds great, curious if you’ll like the challenge of figuring out what they do (and I know I’d enjoy your report of it!) 🙏🏼🤞🏼🙌🏼
I Mix psytrance & this is not possible for that style! I don’t really mess up with the tracks! It’s not possible with psytrance because the tracks are too long & all of them has a story to tell & psytrance dancers don’t like to be disturbed by jumping from this track to that track! I normally have a good track selection & I cut the resting time & give the dance floor a rest time when I feel they need it! Beside the guy that was mentoring me mentioned that music producers stay in the studio & make these tracks why Mix it with something else if it’s good already! We don’t have to touch the nubs all the time & add Fx & this & that to show the crowd yeah look at me I’m the dj! I’m the one! It’s less about the dj & more about the dance floor
I think analyzing how Timmy Trumpet mixes would be interesting because he blends a lot of genre's into one mix, Like in his song "Punjabi" he has aspects of trance/psy trance as well as hardstyle in it and it seems to work really well.
Watch his In My Mind videos on his channel. He basically talks you through exactly what he does as he's mixing. Highly recommended it to anyone looking to learn how to DJ. (after I've recommended Atenditos, obviously 😉)
Hey Carlo! I am a long time follower on Facebook, didn’t know you have UA-cam!! You just popped in my recommendations, automatically subscribed! Stay safe always!!
One of best thing I like about Martin Garrix is during his live session he is not afraid of bring the build up mix on the fly and keep the energy level same of previous drop. Most of the time I try to bring second build up & drop to hype and use its outro for the build up next drop, it's fun & more powerful. So basically sometimes I start my mix with first drop, sounds messed up if I forget about scale but its fun though. For deep mix analysis I want u to check out Dj Braindead, he is like a magician just like one of my best Dj Carlo😊😊
Great video Carlo!! Hope you make it into a full fledged series. When I started off DJ-ing with my little controller, I used to mix EDM songs. And I used to listen to so many EDM artists but Martin Garrix was my fave along with Kygo. His UA-cam set on KISS FM I used to watch on repeat and even had a little book with the track names and acapellas that they would mix with and even had mix in and mix out points. Sadly I lost that little notebook... I used to think of songs that I would insert or acapellas that would work better.
Martin Garrix is a producer first and foremost, not a DJ. He shaped modern EDM on his own (no ghost producers) with his sounds that have been over-copied by everyone else (think bandpass lead and pump saw.) Compared to other artists like James Hype who are DJs at best, and usually need musical assistants ("ghost producers") to produce, he holds up in his own way.
See, Martin's production and production quality is PEAK (and this is unarguable). DJing is secondary also because above all he INVENTS his own tunes… unlike most other DJs who blatantly interpolate songs. To sum it up, Martin Garrix is and always will be, pretty much inarguably the greatest DJs, producers, and live artists of all time!
Im not into this type of music, James Hype sets the standard hands down. His style of djing is what got me into djing 18 years ago, prior to this "EDM" era of so called music.
I'd love to see you breakdown some Tiesto. I love your channel and this series! I started DJing recently and your tutorials have been so helpful. Thanks!
Bro, I love these kind of videos! You should definitely study other techniques from other DJs! Perhaps Calvin Harris, Kygo, Diplo, heck maybe The Chainsmokers!
I did check a bunch of them out before, but most of them used techniques I already broke down from other artists. Diplo is the one I havent gotten around to yet
So you’re trying to explain litterally dj basics 101 .. can you next do a video of a rally driver and mention how he uses the gas and break pedals separately 🤣
Same thoughts. There is nothing “Martin Garrix” about this. This is exactly how I (and all my fellow mixhead DJs) mixed 20-30 years ago, before the invention of Sync, filters and David Guetta...
#1 Garrick tip a neater way is to use the filter and have the parameter at min and bring in and out from the high pass, this ha a more polished glued feel I find than squatting the bass only as all the frequency’s
As you know, he is more of a very talented producer than Dj .These kinds of tricks are a typical Dutch style of basic DJ teaching. I know because I have taken the same classes. Less is more!

Next : james hype bitch 😂
he did it before, one more time and losing it by fisher.
Thanks for that!
Please no lol
Absolutely agree! The guy is a legend and there is a lot more to cover than just one transition for example the way he uses acapella with tech-house is insane.
What Rumen said!
His transitions are honestly fool proof. I guess less is indeed more.
Woot! I definitely agree!
I was gonna say, this is all stuff I taught myself by just experimenting lol
And it's great to see he keeps a simple line of FX: Echo, Reverb. Very effective in club and EDM setup.
so basically, Martin's DJ'ing is simplistic, but practical
oh btw, definitely break down Headhunterz' DJ'ing
Yeah! You can say that! And thanks tor suggesting! I’ll consider it!
You should !!!!
Hi anym, fancy seeing you here!
omg yessssssss
YEES HEADHUNTERZ!!
I love how Carlo teaches on the ddj 400! That way emerging djs can do Martin garrix skills too! It shows that a good dj can dj on any type of equipment cheap or expensive👍
Totally!
Remember he's a producer that djs not s DJ that produces
Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts!
Well Idk, there's s picture of him with a dj console and he was a kid
there is this dude named Dj Carlo Atendido idk if you know him but if you do pls do his mixing style thx
Hahaha! Yeah heard he's cool! hahaha😁
I know this guy! He "INSANE" and "EPIC" In the best possible way. ;)
Everyone shifts the low end. It establishes what song has dominance over the others
This whole video is DJing basics that any DJ would know and do. Not just Garrix
Yeah I just commented exactly that!But latelly people been using more the filter to make the swaps instead of using only the bass!
Do Hardwell next, particularly his Amsterdam “I Am Hardwell” 2013 set, where he displays a lot of his techniques.
Lots of likes for this one! Thanks!
Yeah. We can heard it in hardwell on air 114. Bunch of techniques that he make to hype the set

The most priceless tips for the beginners who couldn't find out what effects and transitions +x used and who wanted to practice.
Thanks for your feedback!
Martin is amazing, personally I don't like it when music producers fake djing just as a way to play they're music but Martin is a insane and inspirational DJ
He is indeed a DJ that inspires us a lot! Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts!
agreed. I'm personally producer first, DJ 2nd, but yeah at least learn DJ'ing
@@AnymMusic same i started producing music and DJing about 3 years ago now
Can you do Ben UFO? He's world renowned for his DJ skills, and ability to mix any genre. Might be nice to do a DJ that isn't EDM
Ben ufo isn’t a crazy mixer, usually let’s songs play out. More of a “right song right time” type of dj.
@@austinrobertson6160 that is just absolutely not true in any shape or form. Ben UFO is phenomenal at mixing and is found seamlessly going from track to track with only perhaps a couple of minutes of the full track exposed. His recent 2019 Dekmantel Boiler Room is a clear example of that.
Of course he plays the right track at the right time but there’s just way more to the complexity and art of his mixing
i was actually looking for this. thanks for spending the time to analise his mixing, and bring it into a very well compiled video
Great! Thanks for appreciating the work put into this! :)
I usually transition in 8-16 bars. When you said 64 I was like “WHAT?!”
Will have to try that next time.
Awesome video man, learned a lot.
Standed mixing that goes way back but on point and done at the highest level is simply untouchable 🎧🎶
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching!
You forgot about the fact that martin always mixes in key
Right! Thanks for mentioning that!
I have been looking for a video just like this and haven't found one until today. Thanks so much, Carlo!!!
You're very welcome! Enjoy!
Honestly doing a few of these by ear is so much fun.
Glad you enjoy it!
Breaking down Timmy's and Dj Snakes sets would be amazing they bring so much energy to the table 💯
got it!
Please breakdown Carl Cox and Armin van Buuren!
This is a great video Carlo! Love these.
Thank god someone has good taste
Really helps to be able to mix like this when you're using EDM tracks that have distinct builds and drops. When you mix regular techno, these techniques don't apply the same.
Imagine fading in a track and fading out the other that quickly with some dark techno. People would get frustrated quickly.
I’m taking producing/DJ camps in August and I plan on watching this legend while I progress
Go for it! Actually, this entire breakdown series might be of help for techniques!
This is very useful to me as a beginner. Thank you. I'd love to see some techno or deep house DJs like Carl Cox, Nicole Moudaber, or the Claude VonStroke :)
I LOVES HIS DUB ECHO EFFECT SO MUCH...ESPECIALLY DURING BUILD-UPs...////
Woohoo!
It would be cool if you could break down Don Diablo's or Laidback Luke's mixing styles
Cool, alright thanks!
Love these insights. Like these types of reviews. Brings to light how different DJs do their thing and how we can emulate them while making it our own. Great work as always. Love how you make this so transparent. Carl Cox should be next!
Do Ben Klock, he is an amazing Techno DJ, that does very long lasting and subtle Techno Mixes!
Try to breakdown afrojack or laidback luke
Great suggestion! I’ll look on to that! Thanks!
@@djcarlo that would be awesome!
@@djcarlo def laidback
Yes!! especially AFROJACK🔥🤨🔥
how about someone who doesn’t mix solely big room shit... there’s other house, dubstep, and electronic genres that do more mixing then the “classic” build up switch track new drop technique that’s been used for almost every UMF
A Joyryde breakdown would be awesome. Thanks for making these videos! I really like the theme of this video as a new dj.
On it!
Back at it again😎🔥
yep! thanks for joining me!
Don't know what he is talking about but its cool......
😂😂😂Never seen turn table in life
Thanks for watching!
Breakdown A-Trak or Jazzy Jeff. It’ll be interesting to compare the older DJs with Martin Garrix’s more modern style
True! Meanwhile check out my vid of Jazzy Jeff! Enjoy!
@@djcarlo didn’t even know you did one with him! Gonna see if I can find it and watch it
@@dragonbreath34 haven't been able to find it myself lol
I didn't watched the Video but I use all the Tricks, Garrix uses, and this still I started to Djing
Holy crap. Awesome video. Never knew that Martin did any of this.
Yay! Thanks for watching!
Love your vids, super helpful for a novice dj like myself. Keep em coming!!
Woot woot! Happy to hear that!
Do a mixing breakdown of coone (hardstyle dj)
Alright! I’ll take note of this request! Thanks for watching and for suggesting!
Coone is awesome!
@@djcarlo thx
Carlo, I love these artist breakdowns/analyses. I’ve got a challenge for you… do a drum & bass DJ! Consider: Andy C, Dimension, and/or Delta Heavy (they all have different styles - pick whoeverS you like!). 🙏🏼
Lemme try to check them out! They're somewhat out of my usual DJing range, so let me see if I can really dig into their style 😆
@@djcarlo AMAZING, you responded to me! 🥰 Hey Bro 👋🏼 That sounds great, curious if you’ll like the challenge of figuring out what they do (and I know I’d enjoy your report of it!) 🙏🏼🤞🏼🙌🏼
Wow thank you I was el seeing what effect Martin used for his transitions because it’s sounds so cool thank you for the help
You bet!
@@djcarlo oh Abe btw what is that song you played at 3:38 from edm example 1
Thanks for the insight Carlos, I learned a few things for my next gig.
I need a breakdown of James Hype's canary wharf set lol
Rock on!
I Mix psytrance & this is not possible for that style! I don’t really mess up with the tracks! It’s not possible with psytrance because the tracks are too long & all of them has a story to tell & psytrance dancers don’t like to be disturbed by jumping from this track to that track!

Agree

Really nice video. Martin Garrix is my favorite DJ and producer 👍🔥
He's one of the best for sure! Hope you learned!
He's awesome! Thanks for watching!
Hey, what a great video !! loved this
Thank you so much!! Glad you liked this one!
I really like this video :D

Please do Hardwell mixing breakdown his mashups are Outta the park❤️
Thanks for the suggestion!

Good one! thanks!
Love Your Videos Mentor !
Happy to hear that!
Yo breakdown Skrillex, I’ve seen him do some pretty interesting and unique things in his live sets
Got it! Thanks!
Next Charlotte de Witte
I'll take note of this! Thanks for sharing your suggestion!
This was the coolest breakdown I have ever seen. Thanks Carlo. Was really helpful, can you breakdown David Guetta’s and Nicky Romero’s mixing?
Great suggestions! Thanks for dropping by!
One of best thing I like about Martin Garrix is during his live session he is not afraid of bring the build up mix on the fly and keep the energy level same of previous drop.

Do a breakdown of James Hype
He already did
@@d0n no he just explained what he did in one of his sets (One more time x losing it)
Ooh, now i understood you 👍👍 we really need this breakdown
Thanks!
can you do a breakdown of james hype?
Noted! Thanks for your suggestion!
Great video Carlo!! Hope you make it into a full fledged series.
When I started off DJ-ing with my little controller, I used to mix EDM songs. And I used to listen to so many EDM artists but Martin Garrix was my fave along with Kygo. His UA-cam set on KISS FM I used to watch on repeat and even had a little book with the track names and acapellas that they would mix with and even had mix in and mix out points. Sadly I lost that little notebook... I used to think of songs that I would insert or acapellas that would work better.
Thanks for the feedback!
Martin Garrix is a producer first and foremost, not a DJ. He shaped modern EDM on his own (no ghost producers) with his sounds that have been over-copied by everyone else (think bandpass lead and pump saw.) Compared to other artists like James Hype who are DJs at best, and usually need musical assistants ("ghost producers") to produce, he holds up in his own way.
See, Martin's production and production quality is PEAK (and this is unarguable). DJing is secondary also because above all he INVENTS his own tunes… unlike most other DJs who blatantly interpolate songs.

Alan walker

So you’re trying to explain litterally dj basics 101 .. can you next do a video of a rally driver and mention how he uses the gas and break pedals separately 🤣
Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts. But some of my viewers are also beginners!
Same thoughts. There is nothing “Martin Garrix” about this. This is exactly how I (and all my fellow mixhead DJs) mixed 20-30 years ago, before the invention of Sync, filters and David Guetta...
Cool stuff Carlo thanks for taking your time to observe and share the knowledge, I will surely be using this at next houseparty ("Hapa" in Korean) lol
Go for it!
This video is pure gold
Can you break down Avicii’s?
Sure thing! Thanks for visiting and for suggesting! Stay tuned for more!
break down Avicii’s mixing style please! Im looking forward to that
please do BlackCoffee , he has really cool and unique dying techniques and uses only one hand.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll take note of this!
Amazing analysis - love this new series! I think in a few years, Martin might become as good as DJ Carlo :)
Thanks for the feedback! and wow the support haha! Humbled.
#1 Garrick tip a neater way is to use the filter and have the parameter at min and bring in and out from the high pass, this ha a more polished glued feel I find than squatting the bass only as all the frequency’s
Woot! Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts!

You just found that he know's how to mix, those things are normal when you are mixing, there's nothing special 🙄
Thanks for the comment!
that’s how top DJs mix
