Join Phil Morse on this special podcast miniseries, as he discusses his proven five-step formula for DJing like a pro, first popularised in our Amazon best-selling book Rock The Dancefloor!
EPISODE NOTES
So you want to be able to DJ like a pro, but it’s hard to know where to start, it’s hard to know what to practise, and it’s hard to know if you’re getting better.
This proven five-step formula, first popularised in our book Rock The Dancefloor! (which has now reached its second edition and is a global bestseller), is your answer.
Each of the five steps in this teaching method identifies an area to work on. When you work in all areas, it has a “multiplier effect”. By approaching your DJing hobby this way, you’ll get noticeably better – fast – and you’ll have more fun doing so. You’ll find you’re never stuck for something to do, and your progress will be obvious, not least to you!
Here we’re going to look at step two, which is the music, before moving on to look at the next three steps in order (the order is important).
Hopefully, this is why you got into this. Finding, choosing, buying, organising, and learning the tracks and songs you’ll be dealing with is obviously an integral part of DJing. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. And indeed, with today’s abundance of digital music and the necessity to use computers to organise that music, this is a huge pain point for many DJs.
This episode covers three big steps that will help you master this area of DJing. Enjoy the show!
