Open tinytunes DJ

Transition 1: Short blend (when songs match)

Use when:

  • Similar vibe and speed
  • No obvious vocal clash

How:

  1. Start B quietly.
  2. Short overlap (a few beats).
  3. Commit to B.

Transition 2: Quick cut (when overlap sounds messy)

Use when:

  • Songs clash
  • Vocals overlap
  • You want a clean swap

How:

  1. Start B on a beat.
  2. Move crossfader quickly to B.

Transition 3: Intro/outro swap (avoid vocal overlap)

Use when:

  • A has a simple outro
  • B has a simple intro

How:

  1. Start B during its intro.
  2. Short blend or quick cut at the hand-off.

Transition 4: Energy lift (optional)

Use when:

  • You want to raise energy cleanly

How:

  1. Pick B that is "same vibe, slightly more energy."
  2. Use a quick cut on a beat at a natural section change.

Do it in tinytunes DJ

  1. Pick two tracks that match well and practice Transition 1 three times.
  2. Pick two tracks that clash and practice Transition 2 three times.
  3. Record one 30-second attempt and listen back once.

Common issues + fixes

  • Blend sounds messy: shorten overlap and commit to B.
  • Beats feel off: start B on a clear beat.
  • Vocal clash: use intro/outro swap or quick cut.
  • Volume jumps: lower deck levels and keep overlap short.
  • You overthink: pick one transition and repeat it 5 times.
  • Lag: close tabs/apps and restart the browser.
