In Western music, there are only 24 possible keys. So why don't duets like these work in a club, but succeed in the music studio? They perform a duet - Madonna sings in a low voice and Kylie sings in a high voice, but in the same key, perhaps D major. Imagine that Kylie and Madonna are recording together in the same studio. Most people can often tell when something is out of tune, especially if it's two singers. Madonna's vocal is not in the same key as Kylie Minogue. When you play a Madonna vocal in D major on top of a Kylie Minogue vocal in B major, this could get a little sour. When you play the same song back-to-back, the mix will always sound pleasant because the key and the tempo are the same. Harmonic mixing is a process of mixing between harmonically compatible songs. Although harmonic mixing seems complicated at first, it is actually very simple. Many famous DJs currently use harmonic mixing to supplement their beatmatching technique. I learned this technique from watching DJ Sasha, Armin Van Buuren and Miguel Migs. Harmonic Mixing is a technique that I use to transition between songs while I am DJ'ing.
