    but i have a problem in the mix i playing the song

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwQbPgouUYo"]House Of pain - Jump Around Music Video - YouTube[/ame]

    and after this i wanna start with all the dance song.

    but i can`t find any way or effect or a song that can mix with that and give me a nice smooth

    transition to the dance part

    any idea?

    Forgot all that hip-hop and dance nonsense and play this instead:
    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjrvEeQowRk"]Bob & Earl - Harlem Shuffle - YouTube[/ame]
    ...then launch into a soul set

    u simply need to practice with the fx, depending on the intro of your next song u can use a delay, or ratchet it up usin the beatslicer and add a splash hit from a sample or many other things..

    just experiment, its where the fun (and experience) comes from

    @lethal.. thanks for the dredge from the past!..like it

    geez, jump around has such a long instru intro... you should really get sth going with picking that loop... put delay fx on it or beatmasher, but have the master tempo set to the tempo of the NEW track (if you're planning on a tempo break here).

    May be that`s will help you understand me:

    in the next link i have a first song then "Jumping around" and after this I`v tried to mix the next song, after you lesson tell me, is that look ok or should i mix after the jumping around another song that closer in the bpm ("jumping around"=107; i mix it with "we found love" BPM 127 but the song start very slow so mant it is fit. )

    Do not pay attention to the skipping I did it so you can hear the part that it hard to me in the original it`s obiesly without skipping.:

    the next song doesnt start "slow", the tempo is just as 127 as throughout the track, it's just that there is no beat in the intro. with the fanfare part of jump around you can mix it without letting it sound like sneakers in the dryer BUT the intros do have a steady tempo and the tempi of these two intros do NOT match.

    anyways. personally, i either make a REAL break (e.g. turntable stop) between tracks with such a huge tempo difference (plus the style difference in this case) or i raise the tempo gradually over at least 3-5 tracks.

    Or use a bridging song like BEP -Just Can't get enough.

    I could but I won't. ;)
    Anyway just an example of how to drastically change BPM.
