Can you get famous by just mixing downloaded tracks? Posted on: 15.02.2013 by Jaunita Herren Hi everyone,Pretty much all really famous DJ's in the EDM scene are producing their own tracks, so I was wondering how far - do you believe - can someone who just mixes downloaded tracks get really famous? I can't even get into a club yet (officially), so I don't know how hard it is to get well known. I am 15 years old now, and if I want to make it as a DJ (or at least earn some money with it twice a month,) should I really start producing, or can I just continue developing more mixing skills and get famous by just mixing tracks I get off Beatport?

| Ulysses Okelly 15.02.2013 | you can get famous if you pay a load of ghost writers to produce for you, but i don't believe there will be many to any "big name dj's" upcoming that don't produce there own music, apart from the scratch dj's and the likes of paris hilton and the guy from jersey shore. |
| Linda Chavda 15.02.2013 | The OP used the word 'famous' what on earth are you talking about? |
| Jaunita Herren 15.02.2013 | I understand Deadmau5 there, but I believe DJ'ing is about making the crowd happy, yourself happy, and the owner of the place happy. |
