DJ Gig Log | The ULTIMATE Guide for School Dances + Proms

I designed the ultimate guide video on how I DJ School Dances and Proms! Get ready to witness tons of pro tips and advice (39 total pro tips in this video) on how I DJ a Prom in 2024.
In this video I will be taking you behind the scenes on one of the most high energy proms I did the season, Shakers Junior Prom. Not only that but Cody (DJ Gigabit) wanted to shadow me on a prom to see how he can improve his skills or what he can learn from me.
Also sadly all my cameras ran out of storage within hour 1 so to make it up to you I have not only posted the full mix, but you can get the FULL TRACKLIST from this prom for free using the link below. If you like the tips that I gave in this video and the music in the tracklist I HIGHLY suggest buying my crates as this just scratches the surface on the music prep that I have for all my school events.

Great gig log man! Tip #29 is solid!
Keep referencing 9:35 and now we are even messing up each other’s transitions! 😂
Appreciate you and all the love keep up the great work! 🫡🙏🏻

[@Djgigabit_518]

Thanks for having me shadow! Nick really knows how to interact with the kids and get them to be in the moment with him all night! Don’t sleep on these tips! Thanks for having me there!

[@bboymac84]

I need to join your DJ team 💪🏽😁

[@jtm71]

Good job young man. Put Solstice in his place.

[@djnvision]

Me and him have such a back and forth battle about hollaback x unwritten its lowkey so funny. Finally got him to come to DJX this year though ;)

Nick, as usual always a pleasure to watch your videos! Thank you for taking the time to record and share your journey with us! Sitting down here at home working and as soon as your energy started, you got me all hyped and pumped! Sorry, the Prom Season is over for you, I know how much you enjoy sharing your passion for Music with the schools you perform at. Looking forward to your next video! Once again Thanks Brotha! "The Freight Elevator Dance Floor" is sick!

[@djnvision]

Thank you so much! Looking forward to next season already even though its so far away. Got some great weddings in the next coming months to share. And yeah I was not expecting that freight elevator dance floor

I hate line dances but yes they do work at school dances and it's another way to open dance floor

[@StevieRayEntertainme]

[@bboymac84]
