I got into the whole DJ thing in November 2010, starting with a Hercules RMX and VirtualDJ. Now, I use CDJ 1000s and am at the point where I can beatmatch a song in fifteen seconds. I'm a happy hardcore/UK hardcore DJ, used to do drum and bass although I'm getting back into liquid stuff. When I mix happy hardcore, I usually do typical intro/outro mixing, but I have an absolute blast with it. With drum and bass I've noticed you can do more intricate double drop stuff and other techniques simply because the music isn't as "full," you can do three deck mixing and the like a lot more easily because two drum and bass songs can often complement themselves quite nicely.
Here's what I'm getting at. I can do intro/outro mixing all day, but that's not what DJing is all about. I really can't figure out what other stuff I should be trying. With happy/UK hardcore it seems like this is about all I can do. Any suggestions?
