UK garage?

Right if u want to mix uk garage it a little bit difficult to start off, this is what would recomend u do. Start trying to mix 4/4 garage this is a little more difficult than house but not much due to samples used. The timing isn't perfect its hard if u don't know even my long term dj friends have problems playing my tunes :(
1st get a mixing good at 4/4 then every now and again drop in a two step tune with a strong beat see how it fits, once u've mastered playing 4/4 with two step the its the next level 2step with 2step.
This requires lots of practise maybe 6-9 months before u start sound good on the breakbeat garage, then if u want start droping in old skool tune with in a uk garage mix.
:) hope this helps
PS a Lot UK garage Dj's have jumped on the bandwagon some of them are useless
