    Hey DJcRave. Try and negotiate a deal were you name a reasonable price to play and the bar or club profits from alcohol sales. tell them you’ll promote it yourself and get flyers made up and hand them out at the colleges a few weeks in advance. Make sure you have a link to some of your mixes on your flyers so people can check out your work leading up to the gig and even hand out some mix cd’s. Those that like your style of play will spread the word on your behalf. Advertise your gig on your social network sites aswell. Its a bit of work to land a gig i know but if you pull a good crowd and the bar makes alot of money from sales, you can be sure they’ll ask you back.
    Thats how alot of dj’s operate where im from.
    Just my 2cents

    Banging mix from the start man. 4 tracks in by 9mins is better than i can manage. Great energy level throughout the mix and seemless transitions. Really enjoyed it

Ive been networking all day and found a DJ Academy not far from where i live. They run weekend classes for digital dj’s. The futures bright my friend 🙂

    Hey man, thanks for the reply. I hear what your saying. Its important for me to make myself different in some way though. Alot of the local dj’s in my area all play the same kinda music as me. Trance, House, Electro and Techno and i feel i need to set myself apart from them somehow, even if its just a name. Im nothing special at the minute cuz i aint been playing long but i know i can be over time.
    Your right though about getting out there, only so much you can learn at home.

    ps. id love to play in my living room but i have to keep my better half happy 🙂
