Sorry if this has been posted already - I've not read the thread 'cos I'm not a DJ, but here's one (best suited to techno DJs).
Get the beat of the record that you are mixing to on the off-beat of the record that you are mixing from - so it goes doof-doof-doof-doof (as opposed to doof-pause-doof).
Put the crossfader hard left or right. Let the track play for a bit, then (on the beat of the record you are playing), push the crossfader to the other side, then back again.
Its a cool effect if you can do it well - its not too hard either, I can't DJ for shit and I can do it... I think its called double-beating - it creates a kind of skipping sound, good way to break up the repeditivness of a loop.
