Rap DJ to EDM DJ
Posted on: 07.05.2013 by Brad Crnkovic
What do I need to know to start being a good EDM DJ? Then what do I need to know to be a great EDM DJ? What's the main different between DJ'ing Rap vs EDM?

I'm looking to step up my game. Help please ;-)

Saw this in another community and thought it was kinda funny. :


Have you ever wanted to be a superstar DJ as quick as possible? Fame, money, hot girls and millions of fans? Look no further! This special guide will show you step by step how to become one.

Step 1.First of all, you need to choose which style of music you want to produce and play. I will make this very simple for you. There are only two routes that you can go: Avicii/Alesso, or Showtek/W&W style. It only depends if you prefer candy sweet melodies or maybe something a little bit harder with a bass drop. There is absolutely no point in being creative and original, most people don

Great answer - seems like it's being forced....DJing should be about playing what you love, and if you love it you will find how to mix it. I was never shown how to mix the styles I do, I just mixed for hours and hours each day until my own way of mixing came.

This, and the cocaine comment.
Haha.

I've DJ'ed techno & house for... shit... longer than I care to state. Next month for the first time ever I'm doing an old school hip hop set.

Step 1) Learn how to DJ hip hop.

But basically the length of the mixes are the main thing. Longer mixes = you must have tighter timing. The breaks can also fuck you if you're not careful.

Back in 1998, me and my brother both said, "We should buy turntables." He was into Hard House at the time, as was I. One day after I bought my first pair of Technics 1200's. My brother told me "You mix Hip-Hop, and I'll mix House." However after about 1 month of practicing, I learned to beat match Hip-hop, that I started to learn to beat match House.
Bottom line is you should mix what you want to mix. I've always catered towards being a House Party Dj, however my love is EDM. The best way to get into mixing EDM is find a few tracks you like, Learn from there and keep going!
Btw... Jackintox gave the best summary!

Longer mixes between songs in edm, as opposed to quick cuts mixing hiphop. Longer intros, longer loops, more blending of songs.

Johnny you're a fool. LOL.

I like rap, RnB but starting to like EDM. I like the energy. I'm just gonna try it and see what happens.
