admin — Thu, 12 May 2011 05:32:38 +0000

This one's a short video I did that shows you how to create a DJ-style edit using Ableton's Live software. The clip also shows you how to use Ableton's warp markers to create a tempo-map for an entire song.

Enjoy!

Adele vs Daft Punk - Rolling Deep In The High Life (Marcus McBride Remix) by MarcusMcBride

Okay... so here's a little mash/remix I did earlier this week. Completely random idea. I absolutely love the originals of these two songs and thought they might sound pretty dope if put together. Couple of hours in the lab and here's what I came up with. Comments & feedback are always welcome & appreciated!

Thanks!

LA Style - James Brown Is Dead (Marcus McBride Remix) by MarcusMcBride

New remix for you up now on Soundcloud. This one's a modern day take on LA Style's "James Brown Is Dead", one of my favorite old school pop/rave tracks from the early 90's. It's coming up on its 20th anniversary so I figured an update on this little gem couldn't hurt.

Free download! Enjoy

Short clip of DJ Davey Dave's performance @ the Pioneer Pro DJ booth at the Winter NAMM 2011 show in Anaheim. Lil' bit of "Apache" & some Muse in the set. Began his routine with an improv'd remix of the Imperial Death March. Top notch stuff.

Vestax VCM-600 demo | Ableton Live MIDI Controller | Winter NAMM 2011

admin — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 01:33:16 +0000

A quick clip of Vestax's VCM-600 MIDI controller for Ableton Live in action @ the Winter NAMM 2011 show in Anaheim. This controller's been on the market for a bit and while the video doesn't really do it proper justice I was really impressed by the live sets the guys from Vestax came up with using this gear. Definitely worth checking out!
