Run before walking

Run before walking

Hi, Im new to Traktor Pro but ive gradually just built my new setup up and I’ve gone for Traktor Pro with the VCI 100 with the SE overlay and Ean’s TSI,

Ive been dj’ing for about 5 years now using Megaseg program and CD’s

Im gradually getting round Traktor Pro, but it is taking a bit of getting used to..

as the old saying goes, am I “trying to run before I walk?” :smiley:

hell no! sounds like you’ve been walking for 5 years! ya prolly should have started running ages ago. is that all you’re asking?

chur cuz metal+dnb is the way to be!

haha cheers man, probably me just getting in a comfort zone, had a residency aswell for 4 years :slight_smile:

Hey Lecko sounds like you have been running a marthon for the last four years and you didnt even know it. Good stuff man, and welcome to DJ TT site.

nice, how does youre style incorporate both metal and dnb? thats where i eventually wanna go but ive just been playin dnb out predominantly

Well with more drum n bass becoming live bands with the likes of pendulum making it popular, it’s going down pretty well, chuck a couple of remixes in of rage against the machine and nine inch nails it seems to go down quite nicely

A Prodigy track is always a good transition track to use I find, especially the pendulum voodoo people remix:slight_smile:

Also a couple of Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit reworks can work (“re-animation” album and the “new old songs” album)

You should check out the Glitch Mode recording label. Cyanotic does some great drum and bass mashed with metal, as does Acumen Nation, Mindflux Funeral, and a bunch of other industrial artists I’ve been bashing my head against lately. Much more on the metal side than the drum and bass, but some of it is fucking amazing.

the metal side is where i wanna end up so id be keen to get some names, but i cant really download em yet, cos i dont have the internet at home. so dont bother right now heh, unless you know of any of these bands touring and are gonna come to nz? (its a long-shot lolz)

Most of these bands are trying, TRYING to plan European dates, but it’s rare that they make it out that way

yea ill bet. theyd go off huge here, half the popuolation are metellers :smiley:

Yessssssssssss

Nooooooooooo.

But really. I can see the metal/dnb relation. I’d just prefer not to. :slight_smile:

up to you. im a meteller at heart, i music that sounds like skulls vomiting on deamon children :slight_smile:

Fair enough. I used to get down with all that years ago, I had hair down to the middle of my back :eek:.

I just pretend like that’s not true.

And I invented skulls vomiting on deamon children. hah

lolz 6 months and my dreads will be that long, i cant wait heh

If you run before you walk, you will inevitably fall down and won’t know how to transition from being flat on the ground → running.

Dude you seriously need to check out some of the stuff from a guy I’m working with atm. Hes a metal head and only just found out about DnB like 6 months ago and is already godlike at production (did production on Metal before this).

He uses heaps of metal samples and influences in making dark DnB/Dubstep. Also has heaps of metal mates so hopefully get something live going this year… you should like… move down here.
