Easy to Grasp Tips For Learning How To DJ
So, you want to be a DJ? Welcome to a very exclusive club of individuals. Nobody better understands a DJ like another DJ. We have our own language and way of expressing ourselves. Having said that, we’re not against picking up a few tips and pointers that will help along the way. In this article, I’m going to identify a few of those tips that you might want to take to heart.
At the very top of my list is what I call to “be geared up.” This doesn’t mean to have all the equipment that you need. It means to have backups, just in case. For example, when you go out on a gig, make sure you carry a spare needle with you. How come? What happens if the only one you have goes south on you? Then what? Always hope for the best and expect the worst. That way, if something DOES go wrong, you’ll be ready for it.
As far as the actual gig itself, there are loads of tips I could give but this one is probably the most important…keep them dancing. You DON’T want to have any down time of silence whatsoever. Obviously, in order to do this, you need to have everything planned from the outset. There is no time for thinking in between tracks. If you get requests, comply with them ONLY if doing so isn’t going to meddle with your set. Nobody is going to expect you to have every song created, though a good-sized collection is not a bad idea.
Finally, don’t annihilate your sound system. I understand that the music has to be loud, but you don’t want to play things at a volume that blows every speaker in the setup. Having to fill the night with beat boxing is not a very good idea. So pick a level that is going to get the job done without turning the event into a nightmare. I’ll leave the level itself up to YOUR good judgment. I trust that you’ll know just where to leave the volume at.
There is a fine art to being a DJ. It isn’t just about spinning records and scratching. It’s about bringing an object to life. You want to keep things bouncing and make people feel the energy. You want them to go home, in the end, having had a good time. That’s the end goal.
In my signature, you’ll find a review of a great resource that will turn you into a dope DJ in record time.
