Definitely subscribed to one of those DJ Pools, when “certain genre” gets hyped up, most of the new releases will carry that “certain genre”, like how its happening with Future House now, all the new releases carry the Future House influences, be it new original mix, or remixes of latest Top 40, just like how it happened with Beatport Top 100, all the top 10 crowded with Future House type
Granted just like Melbourne Bounce, Future House doesnt have its own Sub-Genre section at the Beatport, they do however at the DJ Pools, labeled under genre “Future House”
April 8, 2016 at 4:47 am in reply to: Problem: 3 DJs playing B2B across 3 software platforms – how to do it? #2381281Lamid45GParticipantSimple question is why ? why b2b with 3 DJ’s at the same time ?
Cant you guys just simply do the 1-2 hours shift instead ?
Lamid45GParticipantIf you worried that no one will listen to what you specialize, how about moving toward to stuff that folks will listen ?
You can start out that way at first without being “sold-out”, after you get recognized and getting more gigs, THEN you can start infuse it with yur own styleAt least that’s what I did …
ANd yes friends is important, who else would come to see your show if it aint your friends?
Annnd DJ friends is important also…
So start making that connection !Lamid45GParticipant1. Forget harmonic mixing,
Its just a tools, if you did prepared your set, use your ears its your DJ best buddy !
PS: to beable to keymixing you not neccessary depends on the traffic mixing, use keymixing software aka Mixed-in-key, keyfinder, those software will tagged your songs with the keys, for example, you analyzed a song Justin Bieber “Sorry”, once the software done anlayzed it will tagged the file with this format 06A-Justin Beiber “Sorry”, it will show up in your cdj 2000 screen, in the file name and in the upper right corner2. Being a “Closing DJ” sometimes just have to dealt with that kind of situation, folks started leaving home, just a few peeps dancing, because the event almost over
Ask your fellow DJ’s see if you can have the “prime-time slot” aka around anything above 12 midnite, like 1 am, or 2 am slotLamid45GParticipantA lot of beginner DJ’s use the kill the bass EQ trick to hide their train-wrecked mixing, use it wisely ^_^
Lamid45GParticipant1.Which technique has been the most difficult to learn in your experience
Turntablism,
But then again this is not essential in DJing, unless you put on a solo show featuring yourself showcasing your turntablism skills and such, or if you participating in DJ Battle2. Which technique (if any) is the most important in your experience to keep the crowd happy
Reading the crowd,
Like most said above me is one of the key elements in DJ ingTiming,
combined this with “Reading the Crowd”, you have the know the timing of when to drop that special music, or timing in this case is to keep the flow not losing the momentumLamid45GParticipantBeing A DJ, I put myself in the middle of the battlefield
I know exactly which part of the music I play that will shake the crowd in front of me, and I know which one I have to avoid
Lamid45GParticipantFolks must be bored lol
Lamid45GParticipant@titan the OP asking about mixtape not for a production, which is completely different ball game
Lamid45GParticipantAs a wedding DJ, mixing its not really your first priority
Lamid45GParticipantAre you gettin paid for this or some kind of compensation ?
Lamid45GParticipantMy advice would be start saving up from now, that way you have cash already piled up somewhere once the courses opened, ad keep in my mind once you pay for the courses its yours forever
Lamid45GParticipant@deathy Its a great course, and I think you can do an installment plan, I believe if Im not mistaken
Lamid45GParticipant*sad panda -_-
Lamid45GParticipantA good time to dropped a sample is for me is … hardly none lol
If u spin rnb and such, you heard most rnb dj’s drop one of those super annoying and overrated fog horn, I do that myself just to annoyed myself lol
Or if you spin Trap, you can hear the famously sample, “Damn Son, whered you find this?”, they dropped it most of the time after the signature melody pops in
