Andy demonstrates in this video how to listen to tracks for differen sections, many of which have different keys (much like an entirely different song within the main song). He also continues to show us how to match keys of tracks using software.

“Some kinds of music are very logged in to  one tonal center” explains Andy. Many different genres have different song structures, and some have more movement in tone.

Summary

This 2nd video in our 5 part djing tutorial video series is an overview of what keyed mixing is and how you can begin starting to create sets that are mixed in key.

Andy goes over why keyed mixing sounds good, why it is important, the different keys and structures of songs that make them easier or harder to mix together in a musically sound, keyed dj blend. Different genres and different tracks mixed together will compliment each other more when mixed in key. When you match the tonal centers of two tracks, their individual parts may combine within a mix to create more energy and a greater listening experience: the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
