Becoming a better DJ - improving one's skills. Hello. I've already read some threads here about what makes a good DJ, and some of the technical skill-sets that one requires. This is my current process - Track selection (usually takes a few hours for me to find the right tracks that sound good together to go into a set) based on harmonic-mixing. Find the best transition points between tracks and make cue-points where required. Phrase-matching (connected to transition points). Beat-matching. EQ levels when transitioning. And if need be, the odd sample and effect mixed in the right place. Also record practice sets with the intention of making them flawless. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but what other technical or non-technical aspects do you recommend from experience in order to improve? | |
