    90s DJ here. Frantically searching crates of vinyls for the next track. Back in my day there was no looping. Pure adrenaline rush. Learning a lot from Alice. Thanks 👍

    Great lesson, I remember playing a gig one night and the venue owner asked me to let another DJ on the decks to play a few tracks, told me he was a great DJ. When he got on the decks he spent so much time looking for a track that he wasn't paying attention to the track playing coming to the end. I tried to explain to him but he told me he knew what he was doing and didn't need any help. I went to the bar for a drink and waited for the silence. And when the silence came, OMG was he embarrassed. For any young DJ's out there, watch these lessons and learn. Don't be a know it all and don't be cocky, the last thing you want is to be standing there in the silence looking like headless chicken.

      @Digital MarketiiingNot too far off, he was a really close friend of the owner. Every weekend he would spend hours talking into the owners ear. Far too arrogant and certainly far too cocky for a guy with no experience. All he had to do was listen and learn and he would prob been playing fine. Could have even got a few gigs out of it but he blew his chance.

    • @DJTide
      @DJTide Před 3 lety +3

      I wouldn't have even bothered letting him know, I've done that and been blamed that I "distracted" him. Sometimes these cocky DJs gotta learn the hard way.

    Audiotistic 2019 was when you were vibing out to your set and forgot to mix in the next track and i swear thats one of my favorite festival memories ☺️

    hey, I'm having a lot of fun watching these tutorials, which is pretty rare. Don't get me wrong- I love any good quality free tutorial ... but making them fun to watch as well as informative really takes this series to the next level.

    Thank you sm for this !!
    A few ideas for the next video:
    1) How to use effects
    2) More in-depth on EQ's
    3) Scratching basics
    4) Mixing two different genres (maybe rap into dubstep or house?)
    5) More on using the loop button to transition or just to add to songs
    6) Out of curiosity- How do you go about making a mix? Do you practice what you will play before or just have a list of songs that you like and know well enough to choose from and freestyle from that?

    this video series is something I’ve always wanted 😭 can you talk about using the effects on the Mixer? And how / when to use them?
    & maybe cover mixing top 40 songs. Rap music is hard for me to mix cause they don’t stop rapping 😅 lol! Thanks for being awesome. We all luv u🖤
    Or discuss going B2B. Idk i have so many questions. Ily

    • @nevdo_music
      @nevdo_music Před 3 lety +1

      For the rap music, I might suggest to have an instrumental version of that song or an edit, i.e. EDM remix or smth :)

    First of all, you are such a sweetheart for taking your time out to share your gift. You are one of my favorite artists! Providing that I would have been well enough, I was going to be able to see you at Redrock. My Daughter lives in Denver and like me, a big fan. You remind me of her, she is also a musician, but you are so much alike in the fact that you are so down to earth and just play your music being your authentic selves. If I'm better next year, I'll be there to see you!! Love ya Allison ❤

    Hey thanks for making these tutorials! I literally just got my first DJ controller tonight and just have no idea where to start! lol. I've been producing music in Ableton for almost 2 years now and it's all I care about. But I thought it might be a good idea to start learning how to DJ as well. I definitely want to create my live performance sets of my music with Ableton's arrangement view and do live instrumentation or something. But DJing looks fun as hell. And it seems like an awesome outlet to focus on during times of writers block or just times when you want to step away from production (which isn't often) But anyway, thanks for making these. I now have a place to start with this and your personality also makes this very enjoyable!

    And gonna just have fun DJing in my room, hoping to record something soon to share.
    Pretty cool setup for a serious noob.
