Luke, thank you so much. Doing all these videos with your busy schedule and giving us back so much. Can't describe how much I've learned from you. Mad respect!
I was never too fond of you luke, but giving back to the community and showing us dj's eager to learn, while also showing us your more than just a big name, you've gained some mad respect..
Yeah! I never voted for the DJ Mag myself but wouldn't it be kick ass if we all vote for Luke? We have 160.000 subscribers over here :-D I know how LL thinks about the DJ Mag and I share his vision...but I don't know...He just deserves the attention and it would be fun to have him rank first. I'm going to vote right now .-)
Love LaidbackLuke. Love how I have been lucky enough to see him mix, live from up front. He knows how to mix the hell out of the tracks, live. Also love how he is willing enough to teach upcoming artists.
Hey Luke, Thank you very much for taking the time to do all of this, is nothing but helpful and inspiring for beginners Dj's like me. grateful to have one of the best Dj's That lives take time out of his busy schedule to teach and motivate the up comings to keep it real. THANK YOU.
YUU MONADI ML Ya you might be right but most of his Tutorials are helpfull! And some ideas for translations are Great. But i defently dont agree With the Key Thing.. he says that Mixed in Key is a must for a DJ! Look at luke, he dont use Mixed in Key at all and his Sets are absolute bangers!
Hey, thanks Luke, that was really a great topic to cover as we beginners face these problems very much. I'm glad that we have a super technical and dedicated DJ/Producer like you.
Honestly this video is gold. Straigth to the point, no bs or ad sponsorship. The techniques are well demonstrate without overexplanation. Good job! Im starting to Dj Its been one week now and in 2 weeks I got my first event because my girlfirend sister prom didnt have no budget for a Dj. So I proposed myself to do the job. The fact that you mention to not go to a style to another to fast is a really good tip, I would have made the mistake for sure. My set is gonna be made in consequence. Thank you!
Thank you Luke this is great advice for someone like me who is trying to learn how to dj . I often like to switch from genre to genre and I hear it and it sounds like exactly what you were talking about
Thank you for validating something I've said back when I only knew how to spin on Traktor before I learned on CDJs. I've always argued that there is nothing wrong with using Sync and in situations like these, like if you want to do multi-genre sets and need to make big BPM jumps, it only makes sense to use Sync unless you're just going to drop the next track on the 1.
I can't even begin to thank you. Your straight forward way of explaining improved my mixing by 1000%. It was so simple but for some reason I guess I didn't understand before. In less than 24 hours after seeing your videos for the first time my skill level reached levels I couldn't hit for years. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge. U da man
Good demonstration of why you should sync. It clearly provided you with the best transition. You'll get some respect for doing things the hard way but the end result is whats important. Let the haters hate.
Thank you so much Laidback Luck. Always trying to better the experience for those that listen to what I play! Even more important is the advice at the end. You need to have a consistent story to tell, do not keep changing the genre every song. It would be like starting to read a Comic Book, then the next page is a novel, followed by a Newspaper article. Hard to follow and flow! Great job as always sir!
I've seen so many videos/read so many forums on this particular subject but this is by far the best and I feel like I am a better DJ just from having watched this I can't wait to go home and practice!
I love coming home from a hard week of work to watch your videos Luke! Real inspiration! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see you at tomorrowland on my 21st Birthday!
I've learned so much with your tutorials Mr. Luke! Glad you always put out your knowledge to all of us! I also use a lot of ''transition tracks'' in my sets, songs that already change the tempo in the middle, it helps a lot, they're key songs imo! Thanks so much man! Love from Brazil
Ive been watching your videos for a long time,'m new to cdc but i learn so much from watching your videos.They are very helpful and informal.Thankyou keep it coming.
you are my best tutorial by far i just started and had little help from friend(he only used software at home) and you sure can explain and give advice ty very much sir! subscribed
HI Luke, thanks a lot for this video, this was real useful, especially since I know I am guilty of switching back and forth between genres probably way too much, thanks again!!
Great stuff Laidback Luke! I'm not a DJ but I certainly know someone who keeps following your vlogs and who is a such big fan of yours! The kid you mentioned whom you got the idea of L L hand gestures in Casablanca last 2008. @mim0oo 😉🙂 I felt so happy that you made a shoutout to him. You have no idea how much it made him so happy! 😁 Keep it up! You're an inspiration to all DJs and DJ aspirants out there! 👆
Great video. Great tips. I hate it when people say that I haven't played the track they want but the truth is that I didn't want to ruin the flow of the night. Thanks for the videos helps me realize I'm doing the right thing by keeping the flow.
It's so awesome to be able to pick your brain like this! I'm always picking up something from your vids, even if there was something I thought I knew. L's up!
Hey Luke I just wanted to say thank you for all the tutorials and vlogs! I just started in the DJ/producer life and these have been incredibly helpful! Also I'm a big fan of your music and I've seen you live a couple of times around the world! Keep killin it man!
First time seeing your videos Luke, thank you for making things so clear and easy to follow. I am learning to DJ as a hobby, I love to host and throw parties but want to take the music up a notch and your video's are really helping me.
You've made a lot of key points there with sync button. I've always managed to echo out. I've been watching your videos. How do you find time between personal time, family and shows? Not to mention the time to edit videos....you make for us fans. Awesome bro.
Hey Luke, it would be really cool if you did a VLOG where you just dropped in to clubs to see other DJs and commented on the atmosphere and vibe of the DJ. Maybe difficult as you will probably be recognised... Disguise ideas anybody?
Hey Luke! Thanks for this and everithing. For bedroom djs like me who lives in a country where there are no djing courses thats a major help for self learning. Thanks for sharing your knoweldge. Please keep up!
Great video Luke I used some of your tips in this video to enter the groove cruise contest also used 3 of your tracks from the label OTW thanks for this video
I only use sync for bpm transitions. I can loop a beat or 2 from the current song, i will beatmatch the incoming song, set to the current song bpm, once I match them. Then I hit sync just so I can use one tempo fader to bring both songs to the correct bpm of the incoming song. Its a cool trick the audience usually loves to use for adding energy.
Man artists love to collaborate but djTLM is not a producer he is an great scratch dj of hip hop and RnB ,,,,so it is sort of odd mean in what way they will collab.....!!!
I think one very effective method from transitioning from a large bpm difference would be using the filter, like taking the filter knob to all the way to right while keeping the other track's filter on all the way to left and then taking slowly taking out the initial track's upfader and then bringing new track's filter to 90 degrees tip, you can straight go to the build up of new song by finishing the older one.
Luke, thank you so much. Doing all these videos with your busy schedule and giving us back so much. Can't describe how much I've learned from you. Mad respect!
Luke is shit DJ he joke
gareth Evans thx for the tip, Gareth. Looking fwd to your show
I was never too fond of you luke, but giving back to the community and showing us dj's eager to learn, while also showing us your more than just a big name, you've gained some mad respect..
Now that we are voting for the DJ Mag, it will be nice that in your next vlog you comment your top 10 producers and top 10 djs, in your opinion. 🙏
+1 would love to listen to a pro opinion because dj mag seems more like a popularity contest than a talent one
Yeah! I never voted for the DJ Mag myself but wouldn't it be kick ass if we all vote for Luke? We have 160.000 subscribers over here :-D I know how LL thinks about the DJ Mag and I share his vision...but I don't know...He just deserves the attention and it would be fun to have him rank first. I'm going to vote right now .-)
He should
Hehehe I just voted! Oh man I hope we can mobilise a lot of the followers to vote. How do we go about this?
love the vlog :) speaks a lot of sense a lot of mainstage "big name DJs" could learn a lot from this video!?!
Love LaidbackLuke. Love how I have been lucky enough to see him mix, live from up front. He knows how to mix the hell out of the tracks, live. Also love how he is willing enough to teach upcoming artists.

Good demonstration of why you should sync. It clearly provided you with the best transition. You'll get some respect for doing things the hard way but the end result is whats important. Let the haters hate.

I love coming home from a hard week of work to watch your videos Luke! Real inspiration! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see you at tomorrowland on my 21st Birthday!
Thanks again for your wise words! I do think you are one of the few who uses sync how it's meant to be used.
1. Where did you get the dedicated dad shirt??
2. Can you do a video on landing gigs: who to ask for, what to ask, etc?
Appreciate the advice. Stoked to try out some new transitions!
I've learned so much with your tutorials Mr. Luke! Glad you always put out your knowledge to all of us! I also use a lot of ''transition tracks'' in my sets, songs that already change the tempo in the middle, it helps a lot, they're key songs imo! Thanks so much man! Love from Brazil

Thanks so much for these videos Laidback Luke! I'm only a bedroom DJ but your music definitely inspired me to give it a try!
Loved this, Luke. Never occurred to me that tempo sync was used in radio mixing. It makes sense now why those transitions are always so smooth.
Yo, you make the best DJ tutorials period.
HI Luke, thanks a lot for this video, this was real useful, especially since I know I am guilty of switching back and forth between genres probably way too much, thanks again!!

Love your tutorials Luke
I voted for you to be #1 for DJ Mag because you truly deserve it also thanks for this tutorial
Good tip about not switching genres quickly. I have a bad habit of doing that without thinking.
great video big smiles from South Africa....when do we see you
Laidback Luke ft djTLM youtube collab?! yes please
Man artists love to collaborate but djTLM is not a producer he is an great scratch dj of hip hop and RnB ,,,,so it is sort of odd mean in what way they will collab.....!!!
Dushant87 dude that would be legendary
The most Humble DJ Ever!
thank you so much for these! Luke

Thanks for the cool videos! very helpful!
Pleasure to watch your vids Luke..
