haha, ok, yeah that's pretty good
i was expecting something VERY more subtle.. the kind of slow spinning "atmospheric" effect you get w/ drum'n bass
but that's cool :D |

| well I got so many PMs and E-mails about the second track I used in the sample, so for all that are still interested and didn't ask: It is DJ Ufuk - R2D2 (DJ Ufuk Mix). Kinda old but I love it and still play it in many sets... |

damn, that was sweet, the first one with r2d2
although all the typing it out doesn't give me a clear picture about what's going on, i'd have to see it for myself |

| u usually dont use backspins in Trance....... its mostly a Techno/technhouse they use it a lot....... usually when u in transition of mixing into a nothing song with a build up u throw a backspin with the last record right before u cross over...... but iu never put a backspin on the record thats the main one playing then it sounds ed up..... and u have to make sure u back spin the record at a good point so it sounds very contrasted so its like very noticeable in the mix! |

| One of my tricks is when you are for beats before where you drop in the second tune,you rock the second record back and forward over the cue point,and keep the x-fader on the first track with every on-beat,and throw it half way over on every off-beat,giving u a very nice little change over effect,although its a bitch to master ill admit,its like patting your head while rubbing your tummy while unicycleing through a mine feild! |

i guess you mean four beats? Although your description is difficult to read, I know what you are doing. I have seen Westbam do exactly this quite often and I'm always impressed how well he nails it. The major difficulty is hitting the beat exactly when you finally let go of the new record. I would never use this in a live situation, cause I'm far away from mastering it (I haven't practiced this for a long time).
I agree that a little sample would clear things up! Writing about music is like dancing about architecture. |

well, it IS used in Trance sets... listen to Tiesto @ Dance Valley,
at 11:02 he backspins shortly the 'beat-record' and after that a break... after 32 beats he turns on the sound of the new beat... |

| Carl Cox did this a lot when i saw him here in Atl. It was pretty cool but got kinda old when he did it on every other song. |
