Hey DJs,
Just wanted to drop a little how to post on using Transition Edits. A Transition is a song that starts at one bpm and moves to another. This can be very useful especially for open format DJs when you want to take your crowd from a Fast Dance song down to a Hip-Hop track, or vice versa.
To use this kind of edit is fairly simple - lets take DJ AtWill’s - Hypnotize (Hype Transition 127-95) [Clean/Dirty]
Now as you can see in the title, the bpm starts at 127bpm and goes down to 95bpm. Transitions are built to start changing bpm at 8 or 16 bars, so you will need to crossfade completely out of the first Edit before this bpm change. The Edit will Transition down with hype to 95bpm and now you have pumped the crowd from dance to hip-hop in a unique way.
A great resource for Transitions and Segues is at Just4DJs.net - Transition / Segue
