Hello, this lesson is intended to teach the fundamentals of Beat-matching, the foundation of becoming a DJ.
I do not claim ownership to any tracks used in this video. Each song belongs to the artist who composed it
EDIT: Correction to info in the video! not every song has an 8 beat count. It depends on the time signature of the song. Please study basic music theory to gain a better understanding.
