Random Question re: Harmonic Mixing

How many of you dj's out there do harmonic mixing? Is it really important to know how to do? I've been spinnin for a few months now and I have been hearing about how some dj's sort their records by what key they are in and stuff. So I was just wondering if this is really necessary. Is it really hard to do? Thanks.

Depends on how easy you can find the key of your songs and how much you know about which keys go together.

I think with just practicing you will find the records that just don't go together and the ones that do. Howvere if you know what key they are in you will already know which ones could sound beautifully together.

SO i would try to learn it if I was you. search around the dj forum, there was a guide posted there about it.

It's worth learning as it's one of the skills that will make you really good if you master it.

You will always get the anti crowd but it is worth it.
