DJ TLM Share The Knowledge

Beatmatching is one of the first and most fundamental skills a DJ can learn. And as a result of modern music production software, most current music has a consistent tempo throughout the track.

However, many older songs were recorded with live musicians, and thus have subtle changes in BPM. Mixing those songs adds an extra level of difficulty, requiring a keen ear and a lot of adjustments.

On this episode of DJcityTV’s Share the Knowledge, DJ TLM talks about how DJing with live music can help improve your beatmatching.
