Thanks so much for everything you've taught me over the last 6 mos. I've went from sounding like garbage with a record collection and brand new TT to playing gigs at a local dive bar, and making some groovy mixes. You're the man! You've been one of the most important teachers in my journey through the beats! Thank you so much man! Keep it up!
I am so pleased you have done another video on Breaks/Breakbeat, as it's one of my favourite dance music genres. Really helpful, and supportive. Hope there are more videos of breaks to come.
I watched this video 12 years ago and then bought the Y4K album used from Discogs. I'm old now and do other things, but I still have my two 1210s and I think I'm gonna hook 'em up again and play this. Thank you for all the inspiration and useful knowledge you gave me back in the days. Great to discover your channel is still around (just subscribed). Greetings from Hamburg
Love this guys videos he's about the only one that breaks everything down into easy to understand tutorials and they help me so much being a beginner thanx man
This was useful, thankyou. I've been playing Breakbeat for two days and love it. I wanted to improve my sets and I had been chopping up and down on the channel faders which didn't sound great. I'll set my Crossfade as you suggest and try this technique. I also fancy scratching but my controller doesn't sound very loud in the scratch and I'm hopeless at it too! :D
Great tutorial! A different style i have never really thought of it. Just have to make sure the instrumentals or just the beat itself have someone what of the same BPM or one is say 160BPM while the other is 80BPM
Now that sounded such tight ... I really lift up my not existing hat. Great tunes, great chopping ! One day I will come over to your place, hide in the garden with a professional microphone , and record all your 10.000 pieces of music ! BEWARE ! :)
You know its gonna be fuckin tough shit when you got fire estinguisher behind you. Still here enjoying there videos. I hope corona will show us how important music actually is and many people will understand that DJing was actually more than pressing sync+play -buttons on expensive pioneerdecks and "equing" like pretending they are doing something not to get bored for crowd.
just noticed you had a 4 channel mixer too, my brother has a similar mixer and i see him using 2 channels per turntable, not sure exactly how he does it but it could be right in one and left in the other. Just thought i'd mention this feel free to experiment with it yourself too.
wow, johnathan. that has to be one of your best tutorials. Breaks is a genre i have never really ventured into, but after watching that tight cutting, im keen to hear more! that was very well done! 5* *is there any chance we might get to hear a breakbeat tenminmix from u??? that would be cool!
there are 2 guys that did a mix for the back2back tenminmix (bangbrothers) and they've got some pretty damn sweet cuts in there. i'd check it out for more stuff like this. 10* vid j
Great video. Your cutting skills are good and it was very well executed in the video. Have you ever done cutting without using a second track? To create an effect of like a brief moment of silence before bringing back the original track?
When you said Wide Angle, I thought you were making a Hybrid joke there! The Wide Angle Album by Hybrid is where that song actually shows up on the bonus disc! lol
@truesouljs I'm sorry I click out if the video before he said that. I'm on iPod so I can't comment and watch. Anyway I use a djx 100 cuz it was free and my gemini broke. I don't like it because it doesn't have many features but I do like the 700 that I have used. So what's rong with the 750? Mabye I've been oblivious but I like behringer. Pls explain ur side.
@boogerman087 No mate it's the Pioneer DJM600 which has been discontinued because they now have the 700 & 800. By the way Pioneer are very expensive I paid €550 for a DJM400...Only 2 channels but a great mixer with effects & a sampler. Also NO BEHRINGER PRODUCT IS WORTH $230!! I used have a DJX700. Paid €300 for it. The eq lights stopped working after a month, the on/off effect button got stuck down soon after & the sound was terrible. DONT WASTE CASH ON BEHRINGER!! Peace out...DJTrueSoul.
"im usually not the biggest fan of djs but fuck man, you're awesome and you've definately made me realise djs arent just some dude behind a computer" oh shit possible rocker/metalhead spotted, probably just came out of his ignorant shell, yes this shit is hard, requires understanding music, takes years of experience to master, requires compositional skills to produce, requires skills in general, involves various techniques and there is potential to develop whatever is already present further.
Don't be mad because you don't know anything about the history of dance music any real DJ knows that break beats, hip hop,and dance music came out of New York City if it didn't come out of NYC please tell me where if you could don't be a hater learn before you do your teaching

Breakbeat is my favourite! Most underrated music genre! From Big Beat Rory Hory to the Prodigy, Britain's style is great!

landed a break/house gig next week and this has been exactly what i needed to get into the genre! Also got me laughing :D
This video has got me into breaks ... surreal :D
Cutting is beautiful, thanks for the rewarding tips!!
Great tutorial! A different style i have never really thought of it. Just have to make sure the instrumentals or just the beat itself have someone what of the same BPM or one is say 160BPM while the other is 80BPM
i have a feelin you got on the disco biscuits back in ur day
that was actually pretty cool
You are as entertaining as you are informative! Cheers and thank you for your selfless teachings of understanding music and DJing!
Carlos Mesa totally agree with that! I wouldn't have explained it better!!
Thats minted, used to do that on my old toshiba stereo (using the switch between both tapedecks wasn't quite as tidy as that) Sounds really good!
Brilliant as always. Loved the spinback at 7:02!
Blew my mind....
so simple yet so effective
you should have you own dj school!
THAT video has got me into breakbeat. Today its my #1 genre, even a little bit before hhouse :)
Changed me musical life hahah :D
Very well explained tutorial, its also known as beat juggling in america. Well done though, subscribed.
Now that sounded such tight ... I really lift up my not existing hat. Great tunes, great chopping !
One day I will come over to your place, hide in the garden with a professional microphone , and record all your 10.000 pieces of music !
BEWARE ! :)

awesome tutorial
nope, the closest you can get is a QFO I guess, or serato with a couple of good turntables but you must have a good laptop to minimize the delay.
nice dj machean
Respect very good!🤙
i enjoyed your tutorial man!
Great video. Your cutting skills are good and it was very well executed in the video.
Have you ever done cutting without using a second track? To create an effect of like a brief moment of silence before bringing back the original track?
got it from Jessups in the UK and Frig knows what angle thningemegig it is, i just asked for a wide angle lense, mmmmm , i need to take a look!
j
When you said Wide Angle, I thought you were making a Hybrid joke there! The Wide Angle Album by Hybrid is where that song actually shows up on the bonus disc! lol

Great video, can you apply this to hip hop?
Any advice my friend, I like your videos man, could use some advice, or knowledge my man, are you still making videos?
Blew my mind....
Is that the Behringer djx 750? If so is it worth 230$? not sure how many pounds that is.
I LOVE IT gimme more please
its your boy ytubeoshi! #3
adds more depth to the tracks I've found
what camera are you using??
Increible :')
American break beats must be different from UK break beats. I do hear the drums but it's not the same as Funky Drummer, Theme from SWAT, or Apache.
why are you wearing a tea cosy on your head? Won't your tea get cold?

why not just cut the original breaks?
@dfsa90 djm 700
that tatoo had to hurt
nice cap
