Hey guys,
I've been using Virtual DJ sinse beginning of December now...
I've just registered to get some help from experienced DJs...
I've done some mixes on my YouTube Channel
http://www.youtube.com/samtheelectrofreak (please subscribe :P)
Right now I'm attempting to do mashups,but cant seem to find good songs that go together..
I listen to mostly House,Dubstep and Trance(even though I've never done trance mixes)
Please feel free to criticize my beginner's work..
Thanks,
Sam(DJ Sef)

You need to look into mixing in key (or harmonic mixing)...
Have a search for the Camelot Wheel.
Any two songs which are next to each other on that wheel (except diagonal) will work together in a mix or mashup.
There are several software apps that will scan your songs and determine the key. Some free, some not.
Unfortunately none of them are 100% accurate for various reasons, but it's a very good starting point.

sorry...you mean i can use those for mashups or do my mixes lack harmony and therefore have to use it?

I haven't listened to your mixes, so I can't comment on whether you have a "good ear" or not.
I was just making a suggestion that will help you find songs which "go together" for creating mashups (or mixes if you want).
Using key scanning software usually creates a database that you can search, and thereby find songs which are in the same key/tempo range that you wouldn't normally imagine together.
