Originally posted by Ishkur ah yes, the ole "cut the bass" trick. aka the first actual mixing trick DJs learn how to do. Simple, but effective, and fun, but still very simple. You can learn how to do it in 40 seconds. If this seriously impresses you, you haven't actually seen any good DJs yet.

Actually, beatmatching is usually the first thing :P Can't beatmatch, can't spin. that simple.

but moving onto Eddie...

Nifty ^^

looked too routine to be impressive tho...

the good dj's do it on the fly..

donald glaude or chris liebing.

donald glaude makes turntables his bitch
flat and simple, i have never seen an edm dj scratch like him
i could do without his "make some fucking noise" every 4 seconds but still, a good showman

lol hes deff. fucked up or tripping balls. but hey it makes the crowd go nuts. hes going to be here durring WMC and Ultra. ill make sure to catch him=)

ishkur talked about tricks...beatmatching is not a trick

This could be utter bullcrap, so take it with a big pinch of salt, but I have been told a few times now that Eddie's sets are recorded onto a CD which he plays, then f*cks up with effects on loops from other CDJ's and his beloved Pioneer 909 mixer he demands to have installed at every gig.

*POSSIBLY* utter crap thought...

And He DOES Mix at the end, the bass runs out too, AND the beats slip. But with performances like that it's okay. I will agree that it must get annoying after a while, and that the music he plays aint really trance. Not last time I saw him anyway.

Trance Is Perfect.

No Tune worth it's salt needs all that extra stuff on top to make it sound good, hence why it only works on thumping hard housers and Shit Hop.

And yeah F*cking tune on that video!

lol, trance nowdays is boring

ya hes doin it live and its not pre recorded. For those who say its easy to do...try doing it, getting 2 songs to go together like that. He just did a completely new song live. Its fucking hard, obviously he'd practiced it a shitload prior, but its still pretty impressive non the less. no top trace dj could do shit like that.

The reason eddie doesn't do as much shit as he used to, is cause hes playin a lot more trance than he used to. He's always been more of a techno dj and trown in some trance tracks. From what i've seen lately its a hell of a lot more trance which is too bad. Anyways effects, espically scratching, sounds like absolute shit over trance. Techno is a lot easier and sounds a lot better doing tricks/effects over. And hes a pretty good scratcher too, he started out spinning rap and learning to scratch before moving into tech/trance

yea hes hit and miss, from what i've seen/heard, the more techno he plays the better he is, if u see him mainly playin trance, its not gonna be anything special. Either way though hes definately worth checkin out.

lol what a bs post...you've been told by who? your friends who probably know as little as you?
its a djm-600 he demands, cause its got the onboard efx. If your booking him for your club, your booking him cause of what he does, hows he supposed to do it without the right equipment dumbass?
the music u say "aint really trance" is called techno, genius

I said MIXING trick.

Beatmatching would be the first TURNTABLE trick.

^^^^^ what this guy said, techno suits him a lot better, ive seen him play an awsome techno set with hardly any tunes i recognised, yet so many trance sets where hes just banging out 'big timer' tracks that just ruin it.

The next trick you should learn is how to spell

As for Eddie, as long as he rocks it, who really cares? But he was better 3-4 years ago when he played more hard techno at the start of his sets.

Originally posted by DJ Mikey Mike Then he proceeded to get back on the decks and play Tiesto's version of Barber's Adagio, and do loads of live effects over it. I'm sure anyone that saw him at some point in 2004 will know what i'm talking about, he did it loads.

Lol - he looped the build-up over and over for about a minute and a half when I saw him at Gatecrasher

i never said i knew how to spell
additionally, although vanishing is a common magic trick, you would be hard pressed to find any civilized nation that considers spelling to be a trick
In the middle east where literacy rates are down, maybe, but that's a stretch dont you think?

It's not exclusive to turntables though. You can beatmatch with CDJs or even MP3s and the only difference is that you aren't handling the record with your fingers to correct it. 99% of the skill of beatmatching is being able to listen to two seperate rhythms and distinguish which is going faster by how much. It's a mental trick.

Whyndham,

It's a 909 he uses.

& for the other stuff

AND I SAID IT PROLLY ISN'T TRUE BUT I HAVE HEARD.

Never said it was gospel, just voiced it incase there was any element of truth in. For interesting discussion.

Someone's got their irony detector switched to "off".

I know it's being pedantic, but it's still a separate trick.
