It's amazing how everything has completely changed in just 5 years.

[@har_oun95]

Nikolai Hegelstad pioneer is done with CD's , take a look her :www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/DJ/CD-DVD-Media-Players/XDJ-1000

[@TheHutjemoos]

Esteban Ramírez the CD wallet! 😜

[@pablozun9918]

Thats true

[@TheDarknessCamel]

I wish every famous musician was this open and happy/excited to talk about what they love. Most just try to look cool and serious.

[@VincentX202]

Armin's not only a DJ but a genius

[@xRAAAMx]

The secret to DJing is a cup of tea

[@OfficialDJWolve]

gatcha plays :3 we’re here to inspect the cup of tea ☕️🧐

[@musicrocksinaustin]

I'm on a controller & laptop ...and can't imagine having to pop in a CD every time i wanted a different song!

[@albertosencion4097]

I am using cdj-800 with my laptop and mixer using serato scratch live and blank cd's and just pick the songs from the laptop and program to each deck either A or B

[@macboogieland2897]

i cant imagine you playing when your laptop crashes

[@108077854]

macboogieland cdj fail too. happened to avicii during a live concert

[@markoh3275]

Did you see that book he had? The mix he demonstrated was dope tho

[@jpswerve182]

I was djing with cds until 2014.

[@aellajten]

240p we meet again...

[@SeFu2006]

Haha

[@kens6891]

hi, i m from the future. we are using 2160P now

[@distinguish12]

"Makes you look really cool with your friends if you use those!" Hahaha gold

[@MagnumDB]

1 track per CD? Had no idea! Printed labels? Fantastic. Cue cards? Never even heard of that! Granted I'm still using vinyl. This was an amazing watch and he's got great teaching personality, keeps you well interested and entertained throughout!

[@priceymonk18]

I love it how hes speaking with a London accent lol. Brilliant

[@BobSmith-xy2ht]

It's so much easier than the old days of having to harmonically mix and beat match, and find que points, all by ear manually with the platters bouncing around all over the show. Although I suppose there's a lot you can do with CDJs to make up for that, effects, remixing on the fly etc.

[@phillipmorris1990]

No better person to learn from! Armin is the best there is and the best there ever will be!

[@whyohwhyfools]

Armin is the best Trance DJ at this moment in time.

[@nathanoshea5790]

whyohwhyfools which is why he makes it look so easy

[@nathangabriel4265]

check out John 00 fleming, hes far better than AVB

[@whyohwhyfools]

Seen John 00 a few times he is indeed awesome.

[@CzechRiot]

best part "is kinda live", hahah

[@Corndays]

"it makes you look really cool with your friends if you use those" - hahaa yeah it does!!

[@thewealthyoutlook]

BEAUTIFUL!!! lol I could listen to him doing this ALL DAY!

[@Shammm10]

Love this guy... Different class!!! The best ever if you ask me!!!

[@TranceCore3]

Holy shit, DJing is much more complicated than I thought

[@devincoleman4671]

What's even crazier is this is the "easy" way of doing it, old school vinyl beat matching and mixing was incredibly hard.

[@TranceCore3]

Actually this seems harder than using vinyl. I was watching a tips and tricks thing for vinyl and was much easier to grasp than this. But DJ seems super harder than producing. Even if this is the easy way, it's still ridiculous lol. I've always envied DJs but now I have much more respect with what they have to go through.

[@wayneaveyard5021]

Devin Coleman this fight as been going on for years now, vinyl beat matching is the same as digital, with digital though you have more effects to use and features meaning you can do much much more oh the fly this is why most vinyl Dj's use digital now i.e use laptops. but i have to say turn tables are much easier, instead of cue points you use stickers and instead of reading the bpm you have to hear it. they both have there pros and cons. ***** producing is much harder than Dj'ing due to you have to build a track from scratch what you have to follow rules just like DJ'ing then master it and hope its a hit. i know this because i do both.

[@devincoleman4671]

***** Digital also has sync and everything is laid out right in front of you, I'm talking true vinyl not serato vinyl, it's harder. But that's just my opnion, also I'm a controller DJ Traktor S4, I love digital and would never go vinyl.

[@TranceCore3]

***** I dunno. I know my ins and outs of producing, but I can't wrap my head around this. Maybe it's just the way armin does it.

[@BpmSupreme]

nice tutorial!!

[@itsBennett]

i love that he used Rank 1's L.E.D be light... Such a great track!!

[@espinozajavier90]

Great Tutorial for Beginners!! You're Magic Armin!

[@ZoXo-xu6ih]

Meow this is old school!

[@brianbennett5668]

So sick of hearing that DJing is just beat matching. All of these arguments over how to beat match is just insane. Some people like to use counters, some like to do it by ear. I like to do it both ways. Use BPM as a guide then fine tune with my ear. The way I look at counters is it gives DJs more time to spend on effects and the crowd, rather than just spending your entire time trying to beat match a song.

[@Robvdvalk]

Excellent knowledge of music, love it

[@FrOsTyBeArKiD]

you just made my life so much simpler thank you!

[@freebird9]

Or you could use a pre-recorded mix, burn it on CD and bring it to the venue - you won't be more relaxed!

[@PankajDeoli]

Guess what, Music needs to be changed according to clubs energy.

[@zainnnzy]

Wow his accent was different then too.

[@Montzibankering]

yeah.. it that Armin?? haha

[@bekiarisa]

Montzibankering ibankering b86e21sfow2gy77a8quczjdq6f.hop.clickbank.net/

[@DJ3xus]

This is actually awesome. more djs should do tutorials like this

[@thetranceguy]

Trance Energy it's one of the greatest gig that it's every year dude!

[@GateKeeper_Official]

Sounds very British here. I was watching a recent one and he sounds completely different.

[@Baqsam]

When he speaks louder, he sounds more British.

[@devidia]

The same for me, only replace louder with more drunk

[@2011sliverdude]

He sounds British. I thought he's from Netherlands

[@whyohwhyfools]

TheMrKikiriki He speaks really good English, because i think he had a residency at a club in England years back but his Dutch accent is not that strong but i can pick it up instantly. Don't forget English is a mix of a lot of languages and in recent times it was Germanic. The Dutch and Germans along with Scandinavians can speak perfect English, better than me.

[@conmck972]

+2011sliverdude He speaks better english than most of the people in england lol most europeans are the same...they have the brain capacity for multiple languages unlike the UK

[@tamimazemy]

He is from The Netherlands

[@whyohwhyfools]

Yes i know he's a Dutchie ;-)

[@tamimazemy]

Do you know the name of the intro?

[@HarrisonHUMAN]

This really makes me want to mix, but I have no clue how to do it. I just imagine that feeling of giving people a dope mix and knowing they're having a great time.

[@fieldsyguy]

wow, respect gained :D, never really see djing tutorials with harmonic/key mixing anymore!!

[@Styrophone1]

lol Cd's and a separate card to remember que points

[@vapon]

+Larsern420 where is the strange thing about it? He is a DJ, thus he's playing with discs where no cue points can be stored. You must have in mind some 19 year-old EDM "djs" that play with Traktor and make music with FL ha? So.. do not lough dude.

[@Styrophone1]

+vapon1 lol dont laugh

[@LASHH9669]

+Larsern420 +vapon1 I think you'll find in reality it doesn't matter what you use, people only care about the end result.

[@vapon]

Since you care about the result, do not criticize people who try to make it better.

[@Envinite]

+Larsern420 He probably used to use those complicated method considering how long he has been in the industry, still, as long as it works - it works.

[@Guardianx3]

[@IvanIvanov-su7yy]

Armin gives probably one of the best tips here make your homework prepare multiple cues and keys to songs if you perform live so you give more attention to the crowd and fans, not just straight face the controller...

[@AgeChanee]

[@vicxavro]

[@bluex217]

Very true friend

[@joeadame2]

More famous DJ's should do these types of tutorials :D

[@giolaserdj1380]

This is my dj set, my mix and recorded thanks to the tutorial and teachings of Armin van Buuren. Listen to it if you like! This is trance music. Here the link to listen: www.mixcloud.com/giolaserdj/trance-project-2014_selected-by-kokkina-47-mixed-by-giolaser/

[@RockapeandRolla]

Eeerm a well rounded grasp of music? I think he displayed that right there. I think those musicians he listed have all played or have elements of just about all genres of music between them.

[@feliesa91]

genius!

[@jashank123]

completely agree with you!

[@TripLikeIDo86]

I greatly admire any DJ (bedroom or DJ Mag Top 10) that doesn't mind sharing tips, tricks, or any advice. So many DJ snobs out there.

[@walterszabo]

Thanks for the video. I am using Pioneer controller AND still using CDJ 1000 😁 One track per CD is interesting, more work, but I still come from the 1210s. You also had one title per record.

[@markoh3275]

Loved this video. The mixer your using is dope.

[@bekiarisa]

mark oh b86e21sfow2gy77a8quczjdq6f.hop.clickbank.net/

[@Leaveatrailoflies]

^ Why he is the best at what he does.

[@franbit0]

Guetta sera nuero 1 en su estilo y para sus seguidores, como los seguidores de Tiesto pensaran que sigue siendo el numero 1, para mi Armin es unico e impecable y sin salirse de la linea que lleva dentro de la musica

[@RugbyGeth2]

He has some sick equipment !

[@annas20087]

TRUULY LIIFE IS IN HIS HANDS !!!!

[@wesselvanengelenburg325]

well learned a lot more things today

[@Njamimars]

Bah, I am gonna save for the cdjs next, they seem to be fucking awesome.

[@Drawingunz001]

awsome !!! thank u bro .

[@pkbass93]

no doubt about his talent...

[@danieltapiajuarez3738]

Extraño cuando las cabinas de DJ se veían así: grandes y espaciosas con dos cd players Pioneer cdj 1000mk3 , una mixer y tornamesas Technics

[@mmcarfreak8328]

My only objective is a DJ course with Armin. But he dont made. Its sad but instead of making courses he makes best music ever. LOVE HIM ASOT Podcast 312

[@alexwhite4053]

he's made a course now!

[@nathanoshea5790]

He makes it look so easy

[@jamesnw]

It's only hard until you know what you're doing. ;)

[@xdizzyclan236]

Armin!!! Holland! Goed werk man

[@clen179]

@Gwilin either, do it at home by, matching the key using scales, or you can you look up the key on beatport, just make sure you write down what the key is so you remember it. Also you could buy and download mixedinkey for 58 dollars and it will examine and display all the keys on your tracks, also it is an introduction to harmonic mixing.

[@DanJM14]

I can't actually believe how great is English is.

[@ViennaPainkiller]

good explained :)

[@edgarga3310]

Guys! The song at the start at 00:00 is Dust in The Wind (Deep Dub Mix) - Arnej

[@Dinimess2k7]

So clever!

[@keycekeyce3562]

Haha' Joker's theme music an intro' classic!
