Carl Cox has been DJing for 50+ years, he ran Space Ibiza for 16 years, and he still plays 9-hour sets with zero setlist. After my video on James Hype, you all told me to go try mixing like Carl Cox instead. So I did, and it did not go as planned. In this video I test the three things that actually make Carl Cox a legend: reading the room instead of planning a set, his famous three-deck mixing technique, and how he manages a night by staying genre fluid instead of genre loyal. I try each one live (including a train wreck on deck three), and find out if a DJ style built in 90s warehouses is secretly the smartest way to DJ in 2026. Follow along with me as I learn DJing in public, one chaotic experiment at a time. #CarlCox #DJTips #Techno #HouseMusic #DJMixing #ThreeDeckMixing #TechHouse #DJTutorial #IbizaDJ WATCH NEXT:    • I Tried James Hype's Mixing Course...   MY SECOND CHANNEL FOR EXPERIMENTS/MIXES:    / @lavondarocksstreaming   DJ GEAR I USE: ►OPUS QUAD: https://amzn.to/4nCOYih ►Best Affordable Speakers I Use: https://amzn.to/3VZqEvj ►Best Headphones I Use: https://amzn.to/4mwxymK EQUIPMENT I USE FOR YOUTUBE & TWITCH 👉🏼Sony ZV-1 Camera - https://amzn.to/3EH0cS6 👉🏼DJI Osmo Pocket 3 - https://amzn.to/4aVRR9n 👉🏼Hollyland Lark M2 Wireless Lavalier Microphone - https://amzn.to/4iV583N 👉🏼Shure MV7+ Mic - https://amzn.to/4lVhzzB 👉🏼GVM Desk Mount LED Video Light - https://amzn.to/4jRuvEJ SOFTWARE THAT HELPS ME MAKE VIDEOS 🎥 Riverside - riverside.sjv.io/MA9qKq 🎥 VidIQ - https://vidiq.com/lavondarocks 🎧 Epidemic Sound - https://share.epidemicsound.com/578vwr By using the affiliate links above, I may earn a small commission if you decide to purchase anything.
