how good this track is back to this video to get some help for my build up today, realizing one more time how much this channel helps and how much I like listening to Zen's music. Best mentor of 2023 is Zen World for me again. same as 2022 same as 2021.
Nice video!! Sick song in the end mate! :) For the dj'ing part and predrop...Mix out faster a few songs in a row / loop sections before the drop to mix into to and / or prep your set
13:47 - 14:30 is B I T C H I N B R O. I'm gonna work on something similar with a trance track. I love that technique. DOPE AF. I've been in the rave scene since 96, and I'm telling you thats badass. I keep replaying this so I can assemble something similar in my own tracks. Much love (no homo) lol.
Thanks Zen.. super useful this one.. as a DJ, I personally don't really look at pre-drops as a separate factor when choosing the next song to play but mixing out must start at the pre-drop to maintain phrasing so it can get tricky if we're not paying attention.. Luckily most DJ gear allows you to put a colored cue point to remind you where to mix out..
I dont like pre-drops most of the time. For me it kind of kills the vibe if not done exactly right at the perfect time. Especially when it's being overused it's just ugh in my opinion.
And can you not trash the track please? maybe it sounds cheesy to your genius ears but its actually catchy. don't trash it. but lay it on me is a really really good track. playing it back to back with "can I ask you" dope tracks brother. cant wait for more releases.
Being a DJ has made me a better producer & being a producer has made me a better DJ
The circle of life.
The subtle humor in this video is too good
Thanks!

Awesome video bro! Definitely something I'd like to try in my stuff.
Yes! Pre drops and fake outs can be annoying sometimes for sure while mixing 🫠🫠 Really good video once again 🌐🌐🌐
13:40 "Probably end up trashing" ???? Is BRUTAL! Do not dare, (please). Im getting it BP if you get it out
I liked that song on the foreshadowing part.
Track at end is dope!
Soo many great tips, omg thank you so much for these gold tips master Zen world. Every battle is won before it's fought is one of my fav quotes
10:40 Kream Remix... Love those guys work.
11:01 … I ONLY play pre-drops in my set. Back to back to back. 😎

The track is fucking sick
Thanks dude!!! I kinda knew how to use foreshadowing works but I didn’t know it had a name 🤓 always learn on your channel
Amazing video
Master Zen your the Man 👊🏼
5:30 messed up while editing?
Yes
@@ZenWorld The video is great anyways so no one would mind.
Thanks bro just a skip I can't believe I missed that I hitbthebshrotcut key for adding a title
omg
I’m so excite yay
Great vid as always Zen! Lawdy love your vids.
But I just wanted to know: How are you enjoying those headphones?
Thinking of getting them.
Love them make stuff sound clear and not good... Which is good for the mixing and tracking side of stuff
great video! nice ferrari btw
Thank you my professor😊🎉❤
That track that u said u might bin sounds 🔥 if it was a little faster. Would love to see your vocal writing process
Thanks for the video 🎉
Nice video man
This track is sick - you should drop this
Nice one, really useful ma g (4:32 sounds to weak for our track imo but defo works for some other tracks out there)
If your track (13:42) drops, i'm doing whatever your Phase Plant preset is doing

It's 2023 my guy, you don't need to say no homo
As a dj i personally like songs with a regular drop that way if I want too I can create a predrop live
8:29 VOY!
always helpful. ty
Yes Zen. Appreciate this….You need some space on that hard drive lad ❤
Too much peanut butter? What the fuck Zen!!!!
bit of a editing misstake going on at 5:33 no?? :D
Yes haha
I thought I skimmed all of the video
Alright then, keep your secrets!!
Can we get a break down of that project file ?
I also would love to see a video on that.
Love this master and his analogies! Not too much peanut butter on the bread! ;)
holy fuck zen i’m your fan 🥺
I miss the low end but i think i miss zen world more
You should do a video about fred again, he is killing it
yes am a dj and you are right, too many Predrops these days, unless it sounds phenomenal or unique, it just sounds too try hard
Dude the synth at 14:07 sounds massive, don't trash that banger.
How do you even achieve that lead? Is it FM synthesis? Fire my man 🔥
Saw and Sync distortion!!

YO you know that track is fire stop lyin 😂🤣😂
06:10
Peanut butter without the bread low carb 😂
your track that you used to mention foreshadowing... fire. Do not trash that
Fr that shit was fire
Lol the always-high-guys at 124 bpm
Don't trash the song it's dope!!!
tensionnnn
Nice vid! Obviously you're not the biggest 'Deeper purpose' fan, haha 😀
Oh just used for B Roll footage

Although I agree with everything that zens says this song below goes against everything he says at 4:50

Yeah of course always the exceptions depends on the music you make.
Ba ba ba 😂😉
Fat no for me with pre drops/ cool downs. Takes the energy out Imo.
Everything is more satisfying if it explodes after a build up
Gu gu ga ga gu gu gu bam drop 😂
Actually I've found you can never have too much peanut butter on the bread. I've tried, and it never happened.
And can you not trash the track please? maybe it sounds cheesy to your genius ears but its actually catchy. don't trash it. but lay it on me is a really really good track. playing it back to back with "can I ask you" dope tracks brother. cant wait for more releases.
YES I DJ FOR LONG TIME PRE DROP FOR TO MUCH IS NOT GOOD
There are 2 things I hate about the music of today (hard-dance); piepkicks and fake drops!
there's no such thing as too much peanut butter
