      @BeckySaifMusic funny when you said how many years DJing as I feel you, I started mixing on vinyl when I was 13 at a mates and now 42 so it's o ly the production that's the recent one the last 10 plus years. Got to say you are absolutely stunning you know x

    That was awesome. It's always interesting to hear someone describe it from the ground up cos everyone describes it a little differently. This was very concise and clear. The bass switching was demo'd very well too 👏
    CDJ mode though 🙈How and why 😂I suppose I started in the 80s on vinyl so.....if I put my hand on a deck and it carried on playing my brain would immediately think "somethings broken".

    wow, really amazing video, I just started producing DNB (Neurofunk) and my issue is the phrasing, because I fiddled around for hours to match a beat inside my project to become a liking and the fact, that you also DJ makes me more realize how essential it is to create songs, that are good to blend/mix, I appreciate your tutorial here, because it gives me the idea how to span my songs throughout my actual project.

      Mixing DNB and music in general is an ongoing process of evolution I think; especially considering the wide range of technology available today compared to two decades ago. Various genres demand different techniques and each DJ has their unique approach to mixing which is what I love about mixng, There is still so much to learn for people like me and for beginners this video is brilliant.

    Hello Becky. I recently found your channel and you make great content. I'm still a newbie DJ. I've been learning for a bit more than a year but I've always mixed trance. I discovered DnB three months ago and I loved it. I'm trying to mix DnB since then. It's not as easy as trance as DnB has no intros and outros to mix in and out. EQing isn't so useful 😂 I'm trying to use loops, echo out and effects. I love the technique of double drops. It gives so much energy with compatible tracks.
    Thanks for making this video. I'd love to see more content like this. ❤😊
