Been mixing loads of genres for many years, I love it!

A DJ in the Dubstep scene who impresses me consistently is Youngsta. Tight long mixes and you can never hear any fingers n thumbs touching the platter, tight!

I bought decks end of last summer, pounded them since then, literally on them everyday since then!
My 'career" has kicked off in the last month, playing a loads of different nights in cardiff and recently had a guest mix played on "BASS PON MI"..big up cixxx j for that.


Everyone said get two 4x4 (techno etc) records to learn to beatmatch, but i went straight into the deep end and bought midnight request line and some Hench stuff (komonazmuk - miss her i think)
and mixed them till i couldn't crouch over the decks anymore. After countless hours it sort of just "clicked" and its pretty much second nature now

my crappy advice over

[abZ]

that and double drops.

I find that double dropping in dubstep can sometimes ruin it, depending on how much is going on in the tracks and how well you EQ it obviously. With DnB I guess its a different ball park, lol

I dunno I think it's the same with both dnb and dubstep. It can be really cool when done right but it is rarely done right and I hear it a LOT in random dubstep mixes. I usually just shut it off after a couple of those. I think it is easier / works better with the technoid dubstep, I usually cut the bass out on one of them. Problem is the wobble merchants are the ones that do it the most and it sounds awful 99% of the time imo. It's like they are determined to play the records together until the one ends regardless of how it sounds. With dnb it just gets really busy sounding, even when Andy C does it, I ain't really feelin it.

Double drops definitely require the proper track selection. One busy track with one minimal track, cut the bass on one and bam! dope double drop. 2 wobbles dropping at the same time usually sounds garbage (unless you have 2 tracks that compliment each other that much).

Ever heard the legendary triple drop? lol. I've heard one that sounded dope, very few and far between though. Generally way to busy.

Nope he's vinyl. My favorite dubstep dj.

[2nd chance]

I got some tables, doesn't make me a DJ quite yet though. Heh. Gotta say though, it's fuckin FUUUUUN to just stand there, mix for an hour mindlessly, seeing what works, what doesn't... yeah.

I'v been mixing for a few months now, learnt on vinyl with the same 3 or 4 records and I just got a DVS. It's so much more fun having more songs to choose from, I'v been mixing between 2 and 4 hours every day
One thing I was wondering if someone might be able to help me with, mixing between songs that are such different BPMs you can't pitch them low or high enough? For me that is mixing from reggae into dubstep, because whilst dubstep stays between 138-142bpm mostly, reggae can vary from 120-170bpm (well, 60-90)
So how are people here mixing between reggae/roots and dubstep? The only ways I have been are turning off one deck so that it slows down, and using other songs to bridge between the more extreme tempos. I find it hard with reggae because reggae and dub DJs don't often beatmatch, infact they often use only one turntable anyway.

choose the right tune to mix into dubstep?! but anyway, reggae is usually mixed back to back. and when i mix from reggae/dub into dubstep i usually just do it without any beatmatching or anything. just let it roll off the last groove *crackle crackle crackle* then drop the other one....

actuallly... doesn't matter that much anyway. noone wil cut your head off for not mixing from your reggae part into your dubstep part

Ill have to agree to this.

Dove right in. sure it was standardized to 143 brostep and some jumpup mp3s, but still didnt tiptoe around trance forever n a day learnign to match.

Seems like it should be easier learning to match tunes you listne to / like then learning on something just because its 4x4 and 'easier'...

dubsteps halftime, but still 4x4... fuck the shuffles... its not that hard.
