[@teddywadanda1312]

Thanks for this video.. My turnaround starts now

[@justino9042]

But then idk what to do if I just mix intros and outros

[@calbon3545]

Woww you made my DJ basic lessons more terrific!

[@campbellmary4763]

Please make a video illustrating how to do what you just did using only the lit parts of the songs Or how can a dj mix like that through around 30 songs in 15 minutes

[@moca3417]

I m 28, learned 3 adobe programs to a professional level solely by YT. I can herby congratulate you to one of the best "explanation" videos ever I have ever come across.

[@bryanpepper265]

^^^ I second this.

[@theplayers6460]

I third this

[@djjohnneybbadd]

This is the video taught me how to DJ a year ago and now I run my own mobile DJ business. This is the best explanation ever

[@mvbritolearninglanguagesme9178]

I started as a DJ in seventies. Turntables with pitch control were brand new. Eager to learn how to deal with these technologies. I guess things are easier today. This teacher rocks.

[@TheNomaddux]

Props to you for not being an elitist and calling new technologies cheating!

[@nasah99]

A good teacher makes all the difference!

[@Steve-hd2wm]

Several friends and myself had a pair of technics and a mixer back in the early 90s. Used to hold a few "private" parties, renting out village halls and function rooms in local pubs, all the lads who were into DJing would get a spot. Some really good others not so much! Recently got back into the world of the DJ through a work colleague. OMG how this has advanced from back in the day and the sound you can achieve on these new rigs is mind blowing. Back in the 90s getting a PC and production software was "the dream" as the costs were crazy, pirate software if you were lucky enough to find it was really the only way to access this world. Now this WILL make me sound old, but here it is! You young people don't know how lucky you are, all this was just a dream when I was a lad! 😂 😂 Now looking at getting some production software with my mate, look out for the first multi platinum track to drop! 😂 Great Channel and videos, keep up the great work. Great hobby and healthy focus for the yoof of today, in what seems to be a more and more crazy world.

[@stanknight9159]

Perfect videos, thanks Phil!

[@rickywall7023]

Very helpful videos from Phil Harris. Explains each subject so clearly and is a pleasure to watch.

[@DRy51993]

Hey Phil, loved your vid!! Just started researching and learning about DJ’ing within the last few weeks. This was such a phenomenal video and explanation. Really helped me further understand beats/bars/phrasing. Look forward to watching more of your videos and learning. Thank you!

[@lou7150]

Just learning to DJ at 48! Your videos have been such a great teaching source! You explain everything so clearly, thank you so much! xx

[@grahamfranklingf]

Im learning now at 50. Lots to take in. I'm on the course might take me awhile. These videos are really helpful.

[@marka263]

49. Same. The advantage we have - the music was better! Haha.

[@ezell928]

Me too I’m 40yrs old

[@grahamfranklingf]

Update I am doing really well. Ive got it. And I’m learning techniques now. I’m chuffed as I thought would struggle. Phils course is very good.

[@markcaulfield6449]

[@michaelcretu25]

Thanks for explaining stuff with so much clarity. Really helpful!!

[@user-jr9mw6hj9t]

Perfect video! Many thanks to you, Phil!!!

[@markcaulfield6449]

Absolutely brilliant lesson, this absolutely makes so much sense, it now seems to be clicking into it place, I felt I tried to run before I could walk and needed to bring it back a bit, and this is perfectly explained, I needed this.....thanks Phil, top guy!!

[@DarcyHalifax]

I found you through "Mixing in key" and I subbed because of this one. Thanks for these, they have just enough info for beginners and your rants really help open my eyes to the genre.

[@jbahn1502]

Thank you sensei! It's so easy to understand structure of music. I really learn it

[@guesswhosback539]

This guy is a legend and is so useful. I’m so grateful for this guys channel

[@SteveAldous]

So many "djs" have no clue about this topic! Good for you for highlighting this! Really important for good seamless mixing 🙏👌

[@popadopadoms]

Brilliant. Thank you 👏👏👏

[@stgb0967]

Always good to go over the basics, made a huge difference to me while learning tracks, thanks bro!

[@musiqkweenm7594]

Your videos are great, I'm new to djing just got my pioneer DDJ 800 and although I learned quickly how to use the mixer and the rekordbox software (I'm a software designer) the hard part is how to utilize it all and your videos are extremely helpful and the best I've seen. Thanks so much and keep up the great work!

[@santoshkamdolli7573]

Excellent Phil, Thanks.

[@Uncle_Billy_Official]

Very useful information, thanks a lot mate

[@davidfuentes1069]

Haven't finished watching and this is already by far the best video I've seen on the subject. Great.

[@sergioraposo1650]

Very very nice!!!! Congratulations and thank's!!!

[@andrewtamba754]

learned a lot in one video. Thank you much.

[@moishacruz9189]

Your lessons have been helping me a lot!! THANK U

[@mull2528]

Awesome explanation of this. I have watched a few diffirent videos on this. That was by far the best video on the subject. Easy to follow

[@saintsteve]

Great video, I like how you broke it down into easy to understand sections. Thanks!

[@lorrainejordan1973]

You are awesome! Your your tutorials are by far the best I’ve found. I love how articulate you are, everything make sense. I watched you teach your dad how to DJ DNB which was brilliant and hilarious at the same time and I now want to do your course! I’m 50 year old and love old skool house. Thanks Phil

[@twotheone]

Great video. I'm relearning music/DJ'ing and it's cool to hear it explained now compared to when I learned in the 90’s. I was taught to count beats, not bars...learned about major and minor breaks (64 and 32 beats)... later learned to listen to the beginning and end of every track before I played it (and count the intro/outro). It's pretty awesome to relearn 25 years later. Great stuff.

[@thomaslee7011]

Love your tips and advice!

[@ericcox4448]

Great video. Thanks for the info as usually

[@InsaneKyro]

This is a fantastic explanation for a beginner like myself, thanks👍🏻

[@laurencereed9279]

Started out about 6 months ago as a new hobby, bought the numark party mix and watched alot of your videos, love the way you explain stuff so clearly and techniques for helping out, I've now upgraded to the ddj 400 as I'm enjoying it so much, if I ever bump into you whenever life is remotely normal il buy you a pint. Cheers

[@louiselyons8977]

Amazing tutorial! I am learning to DJ at the moment, and have been getting frustrated lol! This has just cleared so much up for me! Thank you 🙏❤

[@DJ-Dorian]

Nice video. Since some time your videos quality and info improved. In the past they were also very nice, but now they are overall more complex. Keep up the work, coz the way you explain and your "method" and info that you provide are very very good. If you keep it like this, you'll be a dangerous rival for your competition (of "teachers" that provide free KZbin videos but also sell their dj courses).. Or you already became.

[@bookofbrah]

Hey man, as always the only thing I can say is: "You, sir, are the best!" :) haha, thanks for the tutorial! Like many others here I also think the topic is very important for good DJs - to know and make good usage of the structures in your songs. As always explained easy to understand and very competent. Thanks mate!

[@tomalavi87]

you could teach anything. thank you - awesome

[@adityag6022]

Thank you sir

[@DJ_20_THOR_7]

Ty for the video I'm just learning great tut
