So how do you improve your DJ’ing if you can’t even DJ outside of your bedroom?
Well tip number 1 is that you gotta work with what you have which is your bedroom, beginner DJ gear, the time you have and your willingness to work hard.
So when I was starting out, I used all those factors to my advantage and made a ton of content that showcased my abilities as a DJ.
So I made a ton mixes of different genres I could play.
Now you may be wondering, how can a beginner DJ with no money get music for free? Well, here’s tip number 2.
What I did back in the day was rip music from Soundcloud, and CZcams. And I joined a bunch of DJ forums and groups to download music packs.
So speaking of tracks, how do you know which ones to get? Well, here’s tip number 3.
You can watch and listen to mixes from you favorite DJ’s online. And what I did before, was check out the mixes of the DJ’s I admired.
So I looked at their track list, and downloaded the songs I enjoyed them playing. I eventually grew a following and gave an incentive for clubs and events to book me.
So the overall lesson is, if you wanna get gigs, you first have to give people a reason why to book you. Opportunities don’t come from thin air, like everybody in the entertainment industry, you truly have to work and hustle to make things happen.
Now, an additional way to get gigs on top of this is tip number 4. Make friends. Genuine friends. And what I mean by this is - go the clubs or nights you wanna DJ at, and get to know the people there - Like the promoters, DJ’s and even staff.
So By doing those tips, you’ll eventually get offered a gig, and tip number 5 is take it whether or not it’s paid.
I know you guys may get mad, but we all have to start somewhere. The priority now in the beginning is to make connections and get experience. So consider it an investment and a way to practice DJ’ing live.
So now let’s say you just got offered to play a gig but you’re afraid to DJ in front of a crowd. You’re thinking you’ll get nervous, or mess up and not know what to play. So what do you do?
Well there are a couple of things;
tip number 6, Study the DJ who plays on those nights you’re scheduled to play and get to know the vibe and his/her track list.
And finally, tip number 7, Practice, and practice. If you truly wanna get the nerves away. Construct your set, know each songs mix in and out point, and overall structure.
Once you make a potential set that you think is dope. Practice it constantly, record it, and send them to a couple of DJ friends and get their opinion on it, and improve from their on.
So eventually when that day comes to play live. Relish the moment, loosen up, don’t be too serious and just have fun!

“You gotta do what you gotta do”
Damn right
I love your honesty about getting music when starting out. I mean who has never purchased music before even trying to DJ!
Love the tip saying that we should work with what we have. You could have the most expensive equipment on the market, but it doesn't necessarily make you the best DJ. Thanks Carlos😁
I like how u interact with ur fans : likeing ,loving and replying their comments,most djs don't interact with their fans like u....great bro.......
Watching these pushed me to buy my first DJ controller
Me too haha(:
DJ Carlo Atendido it’s goin, slowly but surely😅 still just trying to get into the rhythm
me to
Me too
I actually like the first tip due to how it relates to me. I started off DJing with a crappy laptop and a very cheap controller. I still have a lot to learn, but by watching your awesome videos, it makes things much easier. I look forward to when I first perform because of you....... Keep up the good work.
Great videos Carlo! Keep it up! 💪
I really loved the connections tip. I agree that making connections is the best way to get gigs! Meeting people at clubs in person and attending there gigs and becoming close to them really helps you gain a reputation. Also taking advantage of free gigs! Thank you for those tips!
Already looking forward to your next vid! I loved the tips you gave to be able to get a gig, especially the 'bring a physical usb' one. Didn't think that would make a difference, will definitely try that!
I just love everything. I am just about to start actually. I got inspired when I saw your performance during a world championship. Since then, I've been your subscriber. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow, thanks for making this video. All these tips were great! Im getting my DJ Controller soon and this video really helped me set a basic understanding of what I should do when I do get my controller. Thanks bro!
thankyou man! this video was a great help, ive been watching you for a while and i love the content
All the best!! thank you for the tips DJ Carlo 💯
Bro i look foward to your new videos. Your content is great and always gets me hyped up to mix.
All these tips were my favorite and useful! keep the videos coming they are really helpful!
My favourite tip was "work with what you have". I've been making mixes myself and gained credit for it, I've gained some popularity and it seems that it's likely to continue. Thanks for the tips btw.. keep it up!
One more video with great information en tips! awesome job men!
The tip about making different types of mixes is one of my favorites! I think its super important to showcase diversity in your mixes! Thanks for the tips Carlos!
Hi dj carlo you taught me everything that i know right now, i always watch your video tutorials and now I’m having gigs on my own! And thank you so much, I’m really looking forward to meet you and learn more from you!
Thank you for the help, waited for this video for a long time!! Gig tip was the best one. Love from belgium
Hi Carlo, I followed you for a couple months, and I have to say you are such a big inspiration, you helped me with my technique, I consider you as my teacher for literally EVERYTHING that concerns Djing, keep up the good work✌️
Such a good help and tip from a champ👌‼️‼️
thank you very much bro, and all your tips are always useful and well said
Thank you so much for making this video 💯
You are awesome 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 thank you for the tips 🔥
Thanks Carlo for your advising videos! You inspire me a lot bro!!
And I want to look up to your mixs man! Keep that coming :)
Love the content bro. Getting back into the game after almost a decade. Things have changed a bit to say the least. Thanks for making the switch to digital easy!!
Love your videos man!
Btw best tutorial yet for me is the one about the hidden functions
Thank you for all the tips. I love your advice on taking the first gig no matter what. It is easy to get discouraged when things don’t go your way but every beginner dj goes through this. Could not agree more that practice is the key.
I appreciate that you were candid about having the right attitude of hustling as a brand new inexperienced DJ and getting gigs in anyway shape or form possible. Everybody has to start somewhere.
Great job Dj Carlo Atendido you have great tips and you are right when you first start take all gigs get that experience.
I loved the tips on tone play! I downloaded the 2 songs you used from your link and I've been practicing :) the reason I like that tip is because it really shows live skills in the mix.
Really all tips are top useful thanks DJCARLO 👍✌️
Love your Tips, now make me more confident to djing and learn how to do it for beginer. Thank's for sharing Carlo
I would definitely say practicing with what you have is the best tip here!
I have struggled a lot with my confidence trying to figure out how to become better and im getting there now, ive played a few gigs that were amazing and have one that im really excited about coming up!
I have a long long way to go but these tips in this video are ABSOLUTELY what every dj should do, thanks a lot for the great content Carlo!!💙
your videos are actually so well made, you deserve a lot more subs .
This video show everything that an unexperienced Dj like me needs to know. All the tips you refer were 100% accurate and the one that really caught my attention was the one that talks about receiving no money in your first gigs because what you need to gain in the first gigs is experience and star to build your reputation and really inspired me
Love that you always advice people to start and work with what they have
The entire video was all great tips! Thx u
I loved all the tips!
I'm not kidding when I'm saying that it's your best video!
Great tips!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Work with what you have! I started DJing on my phone lol, now I have the DDJ 400 and I love it. Thank you for your great videos, they're really helping me so far as a beginner.
Keep up the good work!
im 11 years old I've been djing for about a year and i just want to say that your videos have inspired me lots! i practise everyday and have been making progress thanks so much for all your help in creating my future dj courier
That is awesome! Continue to rock on!
Nice tips bro! Love your Video's!🔥👌
Those shirts look amazing! The free music tip was amazing, thanks for making these videos!
I am glad you acknowledged the different ways to get music.
Great advice as always Carlo! I cant say which tip is my favorite cause I agree with all of them 100%. It's all about the hard work that we put into DJing that is what really pays off. You are my Skillshare, I love to learn from the best!💿🎧💿
Awesome video as usual Carlo. Best tip was making friends and connections. Because of making friends and being supportive of their events, I managed to get booked for one of the slots in their events.
Other tips also helped me out in my career. Thank you for sharing the other tips with us!
Very good tips Carlos... thanks bro for sharing your knowledge...👊...saludos amigo from anaheim ca...😎
I appreciate you saying what you said about “swallowing your pride”. That’s so important. Thanks for making this video! I learned some new stuff. :)
Dude, this is awesome advice! I'm actually on track to do this without even knowing, thank you so much for the additional info 😄
Awesome tips my brother!!!
Been DJing for many many many years. Everything you said works to get things going!
4 months ago I started. I got it all. I sent apps for clubs and even got on test gig in one of popular clubs in town. They told me that they are interested and will call me when then need dj.... soo,im waiting :D
Im still practicing 10 h/day 😂
Most my friends and djs I was talking to said to wait cuz Im not ready yet lol I said I am and I went there! 😁Was so nervous and I could do better!
Hey Carlo I really share your thought on making real connections with dj friends and friends while going out on a night. I have been trying to start doing this since I am a beginner dj. This kind of videos are dope! Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
Hey brother, definitely practicing is key as well as taking gigs with zero ego and having fun. Great vid thanks Carlos
Another great tutorial. Tip 3 is my favorite.
Love the honesty in tip 2
My favorite tip is the tip number 2 because i've done it for a year like i had free music by downloading some packs and my friends also supporting me too by giving me some of their songs so i can use it for some gigs. And i really love what djing has done for me because it gives me a lot of ideas like remixing some musics, download some acapellas so that i can use it for my remixes and i had a few remixes that i had made and i share it with my friends. That's all dj carlo thank you so much for this tips and i really appreciated it ❤
I like the tip no.3 . I always watch their mixes and check out their tracks so that I can use it in my mixes using my new ddj sb3. :D
by the way thank you for the tips !!
My favorite is "Check out Dj sets' tracklist" because it's makes me feel good and gives me idea for my mixes But it doesn't mean I don't like other advices I'll use all single one bro because of you!
Awesome helping hand video. Your content are always great. The making a network tip is to me the best one. Ever heard the expression " it's who you know"? That applies to this business. Building a network is a must. The more people and venue owner's you know, the better. Keep up the outstanding job. 💯💯
Your tips helps a lot in real life. All the best for your future bro.
I like the tips about promoting yourself and getting music great tips!
WOW SUPER MOTIVATION AND YOU ARE SO CLEAR AND NICE IN YOUR HEAD...NOT LIKE SOME OTHERS
Love your videos!! My favorite tip is the one about not being scared to rip music when you don’t have any money yet 💰
I got motivated for sure .. thanks man ..
I love your videos and my Favorite tip is the first tip "work with what you have" and I really like that one
Great tips. Practicing on mixing is the best tip to take in mind and focus when being a beginner dj.
I liked, I subbed, my favorite tip was no. 1 because it completely me right now!
Great tips!
Always make the crowd happy and make mixes and content!!
another Great video sir @Dj Carlo Atendido.
All the tips you gave are awesome, my favorite tips is the last one Practice, practice and practice.
Cause even you're a pro or a veterant DJ ,there's still a place to improve your skills. And not all djs hava a same skills and way of djing, so i think practicing is the more important thing of all..
thank you for this video,you are an inspiration to me as a Begginer Dj. 😊
Can't wait to your next video
I liked that you said to give a physical copy of your mixes in the form of a CD, because it shows the DJ actually cares and goes the extra mile.
thank you for your sharing of ideas dj carlo.. mabuhay ka..👌🙌🙌
It doesn't matter how much theory you know about djing, practice and experience are always better imo, keep up the good work man!
Loved the last tip, PRACTISE!
My favorite tip is numer one, it's so inspiring and encouraging! We can't stop practising, we won't stop practising, we won't stop DJing! 🔥🎶
Ya great video love the gig tip
I loved all the tips especially skill share I didn’t know about that it’s pretty interesting
Excellent thank so much
i love ur tutorial
Thank you for making tutorials..😊
My favorite part is the building relationships, building trust. I can't tell you how many times other "dj's" have asked me to help them get gigs. The way you listed was the EXACT way I got started. No one works with strangers in this business. You need a name and/or built trust to go anywhere
Nice video DJ Carlo! My favourite tip was the way we can get gigs!
Going to events where other DJs you admire plays and study the Dj how he plays, what works how the crowd reacts. Learned a ton from this already!
Abang na abang ko upload mo dj carlo btw Im became mobile dj by accident, na irecomend ako nung pinag simulan kong mobile crew lang ako dati pero nirecomenda niya ako sa kakilala niya mag momobile, Im so nervous at that time I dont know how to play but Ive thinking na di naman ako nila kila kila makakalimutan din nila kung pumalpak man ako and now focus ako sa mag karoon ng madami Gigs but Im looking forward to DJing in the club hoping na mapasok ako, anyway my favorite tip is #7 thankyou for your tip i will visit that website tho!
thank you so much dj carlo! another thing! thank you! thamk you!
@@djcarlo big fan. always look up to you.
