This is what I've been doing since I first started mixing...never knew it had a name

The 3rd drop mix cueing 1 bar early is one of the simplest but best mix techniques I’ve ever picked And I’ve been mixing 20 years. Obviously just 12” back then and a completely different game. Cheers 😎

Wouldn't it be easier to teach people to set up 8 bars ahead of the drop, match up the beats then bring it in at the drop with the levels good and the track in time. Saves possibly mishitting the play button and embarrassing yourself, also allows you to put fx like reverb or Echo on the original track to blend it out?

Hi Jaimie, can you do a video on drop mixing with hip hop and R&B

[klausmogensen]

Nice video. This can be used in a lot of places besides house music. I use it as a mix variation all the time for everything from pop to rock. Just make sure you have an aggressive first beat on the incoming track

[JoDubu]

Thanks, that was really useful, just need to practice my timing

[suraglinl]

This is really useful. Thank you for sharing !

Good tutorial man, looking forward to hearing more!

[alexlassabeatmaker]

Great video! Another way i like to mix is having a cue point 64 beats* before the drop, it gives you space for differents types of mixing

[kajal]

I learned alot from your videos. Keep it up please! :)
