How do you say,
Well being in El Paso Texas in order to survive in this game as I tell so many of my competives, you must be willing to play it all if you are serious about your business, and most are not, so I do well when I put myself to the grind. I play everything but specialize in R & B music, and on that notes when it comes to Techno, Trans and House music, you really want to mix at the breaks or lows in the music. The loop will work best at the intro of those type of music (where there is nothing but the 808 or drum beats playing). Blending is the best form of mixing again for this type of music, along with the use of acapella tracks.(words only).
good example would be Finally by CC Penistal forgive me if misspelled, and Lindel Townsend NU NU. Effects, flanger at 4/4 will work best but use sporatically, somehow I think everything should be spelled with double Ls, so forgive me my mind spell faster than my fingers. stay away from echos, also play with phase at 4/4 but again do not permantly leave on. when you practice enough skid will also work and for your difficult mixes where it's just not going to happen, try back spending. To be great the key is to know your music, don't play the most popular song until the end of your set, no matter how much you want to or the clients want to hear it, a good delay tactic is to tell them you don't have that song, and then when they let their guard down you hit them with that song. I hope this helps be well. On a last note, I don't get into the munipulating the music using the effects, they are nice to have, but the bottom line is, in order to be the best you must be able to read your crowd, play like music in sets, fast with fast medium with medium and of course slow with slow. If you do this you will master the art of mixing and you will notice your clients will reward you with repeat business and referrals. Oops did I get off track, ok, anyone else want to chime in.
