First of all, my friend isn't a moron, he knows more than me, he's been doing this stuff for more than a year and I'm just starting. Anyway, I'll try to beat (no pun intended) some sense into him.

I thought of an analogy when I was sitting at a red light today...most cars have different rates at which thier turn-signals flash, just like most songs have different BPMs. If you're watching a bunch of cars with their turn signals on you'll notice that they don't flash at the same rate, but once in awhile they will flash at the same time, but not for very long. It's the same thing with songs and their beats.

DJ RANN's right. If you want to beatmatch two songs of different BPMs, you're gonna have to use the pitch control.
Why you're friend seems to sound ok might be because a great deal of trance seems to be either a solid 137 or a solid 140 BPMs. More than likely he's just just mixin stuff that happens to be the same BPM. Also, how are his mixes? Are they quick or does he do a lot of long overrides? Something tells me that they are probably pretty quick.

Well, essentially what you need to do, is get a nice British girl to have sex with you while you're working on the decks and magically the two choons will match up perfectly, like an orgasm. <>

Halo, my signature doesnt work anymore, HELP!
