Q & A
为什么在DJ表演中需要有低能量时段?
-低能量时段可以让听众在高能量时刻感受到更大的冲击,就像过山车一样,有起伏和转折才能保持观众的兴趣和兴奋。
如何理解音乐能量在DJ表演中的作用?
-音乐能量不仅仅是让人群兴奋,它还可以激发各种情感,如快乐、同情甚至回忆。DJ可以通过选择合适的曲目和能量水平来影响这些情感。
在俱乐部演出时,如何确定需要创造哪种能量?
-了解你在演出阵容中的角色很重要,比如热场DJ通常不应该播放比主DJ更高能量的音乐。
当你接替另一个DJ时,如何处理能量水平?
-有两种情况:一种是前一个DJ保持了较高的能量水平,你接替时应该先维持这个水平,然后逐渐降低;另一种是前一个DJ能量水平较低,你可以选择立即提高能量或慢慢提升。
为什么说DJing是一种艺术而不是科学?
-DJing需要根据现场情况灵活调整,没有固定的规则,需要DJ根据经验和直觉来控制音乐能量。
如何通过观察来提高DJ表演的能量控制?
-在演出前观察现场人群和DJ的表现,了解音乐的走向和人群的反应,可以帮助你更好地控制演出的能量。
在DJ表演中,有哪些方法可以用来提高、降低或保持能量水平?
-可以通过音乐过渡、曲目选择、舞台表现和与观众的互动来控制能量水平。
为什么说在DJ表演中使用混音过渡是一个好方法?
-混音过渡可以帮助保持能量水平,因为它允许音乐逐渐叠加,给观众一种旅程感,适合旋律性较强的音乐。
在DJ表演中,如何使用曲目选择来控制能量?
-选择具有不同能量水平的曲目,并根据演出的需要进行播放,可以通过能量标签来帮助你在演出中快速选择合适的曲目。
为什么说DJ的舞台表现对能量控制很重要?
-DJ的舞台表现和与观众的互动可以直接影响观众的感受,如果DJ看起来无聊,观众也会感到无聊;相反,如果DJ表现出享受,这种能量也会传递给观众。

Transcripts
I want to share something that stuck
with me it's from this guy Hillier Smith
he's a pretty well known YouTube editor
but what he said really applies to DJing
as well he said if you do all your video
editing at a turn really fast Cuts
fast-paced stuff it actually stops being
a 10. you need periods of lower energy
so that the audience can actually
recognize when you turn it up this
allows it to deliver its intended impact
at the right moment think of Music
energy like a roller coaster when the
energy is high all the time it's like
being on the main drop for a whole hour
it can be exhilarating at first but over
time it becomes exhausting and loses all
its impact on the other hand when the
energy is varied it keeps the ride
interesting and exciting there are ups
and downs twists and turns and the
audience never knows what to expect the
high points feel even more thrilling
because they're contrasted with lower
energy moments of course when we talk
about music energy we aren't only
talking about getting the crowd hyped it
can actually stir all kinds of other
emotions that DJs can tap into with the
right tracks and energy level you can
influence things like happiness empathy
even memories so how do you know what
kind of energy you need to create if
you're playing in a club one way you can
do this is to understand your purpose in
the lineup for example a warm-up DJ
generally shouldn't play anything that's
higher energy than the headliner would
play I know I've been to plenty of
events where the warm-up DJ has been
absolutely rinsing it out where people
are just trickling in and getting their
night started it's completely the wrong
Vibe let me explain this chart on the
left here we've got energy going from
low to high and then along the bottom
we've got time which represents the time
of your set if you're the opening DJ
generally speaking you want to start a
relatively low energy level and slowly
bring up over the course of your set not
too high though remember you're not the
headliner and the night's only just
getting started one of the trickier
moments to deal with is when you're
taking over from another DJ there are
two main situations you can encounter
this one I call the wok this red line
here represents the previous DJ who's
kept the energy level pretty high they
perhaps rinsed a bit too hard for their
opening set and you want to take over
for them but what you don't want to do
is kill all the energy they created on
the dance floor it's a good idea to try
and maintain that energy level at least
for a little bit before lowering it to a
more appropriate level towards the end
of your set try and raise the energy
level up a little bit more before you
hand over to the next DJ the second
situation is if the crowd is half asleep
when you jump on the decks there's two
approaches you can take here if the DJ
before you has been keeping that energy
level pretty low you want to start a
similar energy level and then slowly
raise it up over the course of your set
very similar to the opener the second
approach I call the water balloon this
one can be a little bit more risky but
it can work really well if it's quite
late on in the night and the DJ before
you is not quite got the energy level up
enough what you can do is instantly
switch it up with your first track this
signals to the crowd though it's time to
wake up and get partying you start your
set at a much higher energy level before
cooling things off a little bit during
the set remember you're still not the
headliner so you don't want to be at Max
Energy by the time you hand over if you
still aren't sure what to do try talking
to the promoters before you're set the
chances are they know what kind of crowd
to expect and what they respond to they
can also give you some Insider info on
the other DJs on the lineup which can be
really helpful you can get familiar with
them and the kind of music and vibe that
they play of course these templates are
just guides and over time you'll learn
to adapt naturally to the situation
you're in DJing is an art not a science
one way to get better at this art is to
become an active Observer if you can
make sure you leave a bit of time before
you're set to go into the club observe
the crowd and the DJ what direction is
the music heading and how are the crowd
responding to it there are four high
level elements I use when planning my
set structures they've really worked for
me in the past and hopefully they will
for you too think of them a bit like
building blocks for your sets you can
use as few or as many of them as you
like this segment I call the maintenance
phase it's basically where you found an
energy level that seems to be working it
doesn't matter if you're coming from a
high medium or low energy place the goal
is just to keep the energy level the
same this segment I call a riser all
you're doing is moving from a lower
energy state to a higher one this
segment can actually last an entire set
in which case it's pretty similar to the
opener that we looked at earlier the
next segment I like to use is a cool
down phase this is simply moving from a
higher energy place to a slightly lower
one if you've been rinsing hard this can
be as easier just letting a breakdown
play from here once the crowds caught
their breath you can either raise the
energy back up try and maintain it or
keep them on a cool down depending what
your goal is this segment is probably
the most fun one to use but use it
sparingly I call it the shock anore and
it's basically moving from a low energy
State straight to a high energy State
the key here is surprising the crowd and
getting that sweet sweet dopamine out of
their brains if you've ever seen people
suddenly hitting the Dance Floor this is
probably what the DJ is doing it's more
effective when you use it from a low
energy state but it can also work if
you're in the medium level of course no
DJs are standing behind their decks
drawing little graphs over time you'll
learn to do it intuitively and your
energy graphs will actually react to the
crowd so how do you actually control the
energy in your sets the two big ways are
transitions and track selection let's
look at transitions first and I'll give
you a few ideas how you can use to raise
the energy up lower it down or keep it
the same one of the first transitions
most DJs learn is to mix an outro with
an intro before you fall asleep on me
it's actually a really good way for a
maintenance phase of a set that is where
you want to keep the energy the same as
it was previously because the
transitions tend to be longer it means
the crowd has less of a surprise when
the new tune drops it can be really
effective on more melodic kinds of music
like trance because the tracks slowly
layer on top of each other which takes
the crowd on a bit of a journey although
Cuts might seem like a bit of a cop-out
mixing wise they're actually one of the
most powerful tools for controlling
energy in your sets surprising people
with something musically is one of the
quickest triggers for dopamine in
people's brains that's the pleasure
chemical but you don't only have to use
cuts for bringing up the energy they're
also really helpful for when you've been
rinsing out bangers and you want to
quickly call the crowd down sometimes I
use them to quickly enter a breakdown
after a period of Hardcore rinsing
another trick that can be really handy
is using loops and acapellas sometimes
all it takes is a well-known sample or
vocal to raise the energy on an
otherwise boring track you can turn a
low or medium energy track into a high
energy track simply by giving the crowd
something to latch onto the tracks you
actually play are going to have a big
impact on the kind of energy you're
creating you might think just sticking
to a similar BPM and genre is going to
maintain a pretty similar energy level
in your set but that would be a mistake
energy level is one of the first tags I
add when I put new music into my library
this really helps me control my sets on
the fly without having to overly plan
them in advance if you haven't got your
tracks tagged by energy level I highly
recommend that you do so if you aren't
sure how to do that I've got a full
video which I'll link to in the
description there's one other part of
this equation and that's you more
accurately your stage presence and how
you interact with the crowd the layout
and size of the club can impact how
important this is if you're in a smaller
Club the crowd is going to be much more
in your face and your energy level is
going to have a bigger impact on them
versus a festival where you might just
be a tiny dot on the horizon but
generally speaking if you look bored
that's going to filter down to the crowd
conversely if you're obviously having a
good time behind the Decks that energy
is going to be transmitted to the crowd
like some sort of infectious disease
there's a lot to unpicker around a DJ's
role as a performer too much for this
video but don't underestimate the impact
that you can have on the energy level of
your sets if you're struggling with this
one tip I have is to record and listen
back to your own sets as you listen to
it try and map your own energy graph you
might be surprised at the energy in your
set EBT and Float of course we're only
just scratching the surface of what can
be done here if you use rekordbox
there's actually a ton of features built
right in that can help you control the
energy of your set but they aren't easy
to find so if you enjoyed this video
check this one out next where I share
five record box features that you may
not know about
