I learnt using second hand rubbish belt drive turntables with Drum & Bass and Garage vinyls. It’s also a skill that you have to learn and practice thoroughly. Impressive! How Can I Learn to DJ?ĭJing is an art. I’ve heard of DJs such as DJ Marky play gigs for up to 5 hours without taking a toilet break. Usually a typical mix can last anywhere between 30 mins, if you’re recording a small set to put on YouTube or Mixcloud, and from 60 minutes to 120 minutes if your playing out at a gig somewhere. Note that if you are an expert in your genre you can certainly make a good impression on your audience, whether it be at a club or on the radio.įinally DJing is about crafting a journey of many song tracks for your listeners. Pick whatever is natural and works for you. So for example I started DJing a bit of Garage music and Drum & Bass, but turns I built a whole music collection around the faster BPM of the two as I’m naturally wired for that rhythm. The reason that this is important is to do with knowing your audience but most importantly keeping it in line with your passion for music. Whether it be using CDJs, DJ controller, vinyl players or even an iPad, it doesn’t matter, the outcome and goal is the same.Īn important factor in DJing is choosing a genre or not as the case may be. DJing is using a mixer and two turntables to mix two songs together in time, with a seemless blending of the two songs being in time together. Here are some insights into both topics for you to understand the differences between mixing and making music. I want to share with you some insights into what actually DJing and producing music is all about. DJs blend existing music together whereas music producers create and compose individual songs using instruments, music production hardware and computer software known as a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). What’s the Difference between DJing and Producing? DJs mix music songs together by using a DJ mixer and two or more turntables. So I enrolled in course for producing music. I had no clue what producing was and how to do it.
Ever since I started DJing with second hand turntables and mixer, I was fascinated by music production and all the equipment.
