- Ramp up the BPM by about 1 every 3 tracks.
- Nothing wrong with a "soft mix" every now and then i.e if the next track with the higher bpm has a nice percussion free intro, layer that over the previous tune and just let it run out.
- Ean's famous "freeze echo" effect can work too (lots of examples/vids of that technique around here)
- Get your second tune cued with the fader and all eqs in the middle, you might need to set some points for this to work proper. if it has a percussionless intro thats even better. At the breakdown in the first track, get the second tune going (advanced fx mode, delay). the idea is to get the first kick of the second tune lined up with when the first tracks beats come back in. Now here's the fun part: crank up the bpm smoothly in this intro (wont be too obvious with just pads etc) If you've lined it up right, the bpm difference is irrelevant because right when track 1's beat kicks in you are going to hit freeze in the fx, and it SHOULD sound awesome
