whada djs around?
i open this thread to listen your opinions about the factors that affect a transition so that can be considered as "perfect".
imho and in cue of priority:
1.fit the parts of the tunes
2.careful and detailed sound control during(eq,volume,gain)
3.key match
4.beat match is a standard,if not,it should be first!!

A perfect transition to me means, you have done it so well that no one on the dancefloor notices it to be a transition at all, pair that with it being made so it raises the energy level of the crowd and yourself, and there it is, your perfect transition.

for those who are mixing whith main faders,use the x-fader in cut mode if the mixer has.that way you can avoid the track running when the other has a ''cut''. |

"so well" usually happens when the keys are complimentary and track are mixed "musically" correct.. Like the ascending melody picks up at the tail of the descendiing melody of out going track. Swapping bass at the turn of the phrase at a 1 bar break creates a nice "pop"... If you listening for the "rise" can help with identifing major turn around points..Alot of times it will be a simple white noise swoosh... This works for me anyway |

Listen to the transition of track 1 & 2 (into track 3 as well) on Joti Sidhu's mix on Distance To Goa... it almost sounds like it's just one long track. |

As already said.... the perfect transition is the one you don't notice. Or at least if you do, it didn't sound bad.
I'm an obsessive of seamless transitions.. I work my ass off to mix full on tracks as unnoticeable as possible.
If you want to hear my mixes, you will have a hard time telling where exactly I dropped the new track
