How do you do it??

How the hell do you mix? WTF? Some songs I can get (barely), others sound like a bunch of running horses? My dj friends just laugh at me jokingly, they say it takes time and practice but I want to show them up...help!!! aRRGGHGHG

^^ its true but i'll offer some real advice. at this point you have 2 options and i suggest you choose wisely...

1. practice your ass off. you'll hear it all the time and you'll get pissed because you will be but you'll never notice an improvement but it takes time and with patience it will become as routine as riding a bike.

2. (better option) quit. you're too impatient to be a dj.

oh and give me your equipment. mine broke and im on a hardcore college budget.

agreed... You might as well quit if you arent willing to take the time to practice.

Practice.

After you mastered practice and beatmatching with headphones...

do it without headphones, thats what i used to do..when i got beatmatching with headphones down...i would take the off and beatmatch and mix without them on.
