You’re truly here to help these new artists and djs, you’re the man
Andrew, you should be proud of yourself bc this is so sweet. Thanks for putting in all of the hard work for this
Think of it this way: to be a part of the "scene" you need to be "seen." Show up, genuinely meet people to meet people, and show up some more.
This is actually brilliant. I can see this blowing up once clubs are opened up again. Great work!
I know this video is older but I just wanted to say I have been watching your videos since buying my controller a good few months ago and wanted to thank you for helping people who have the same love and passion for music that you do!
Please keep up the videos and hopefully you can see this as I know I speak for many others! 🎶
Your passion shines right through and your energy is so contagious! This is the best trait you got and makes you stand out. Great content as always!
I appreciate this so much! Thank you for always taking your time to show everyone your lessons and not only that but showing us how to reach out for opportunities!
man you can really feel how you care about bringing your students forward! You’re a true inspiration and can be proud of your work😎
I will gladly take your advice on this!

Andrew greetings from Amsterdam, your doing a great Job :) Keep it up like that and Many Thanks
Best online dj school out there, so glad I discovered this channel
This is a brilliant idea! Your videos are super informative and it’s great to hear tips about things past the point of just learning to do a transition, thanks a ton 🙏🏻
Incredible that you are doing this for us for free knowing that it cost you so much. I'll be doing my page later today!
Thank you! You should be proud. I’m taking notes
Hi Andrew, I picked up a DDJ400 last year and taught myself how to DJ and your videos were really helpful, they helped me get better. I got a couple of chances this year and it really blew up and in a couple of months I have already played with some of the best INTERNATIONAL acts in the world and the best djs in my country at the best venues. Wanted to thank you sincerely. Not only your tips about DJing were helpful but also your attitude in life. Cheers 🥂
With which international act did you play?
My partner and I here at The Decadez have just begun our DJ journey a year ago. We have just started the next page of our journey in now simply networking and passing business cards to the local bars in our area. What you’ve shared is going to help tremendously and I will be back to share an update when we manifest this first gig of ours by the end of 2021 🤞🏽thank you so much
Absolute legend for making this video, it’s so true!
Ive recently started watching your materials. You are such an inspiration for me to keep pushing myself to get out there and do things!
Great content as usual Andrew!
Came at the right time! Been wondering about this for a few weeks!
Great advice! I'm a college student that's been practicing DJing since the start of the pandemic, and I'm hoping to get enough experience to play some clubs when I get back to campus. I have literally zero knowledge about getting into the club scene as a DJ and this video explained everything in detail
This is amazing Andrew. We're still in full lockdown over here in the Netherlands, so this might the perfect time to get started on the course! Been putting it off for a while but I think the time is near ;) thanks for the video and for all you do!
Awesome tips man! 100%, first give a lot, give and give, help people and then take, thats the Best way to create great relationships 👌
Very good and true video message. I'm a celebrity photographer and told one of my PR friends I wanted to DJ in clubs again. With that request I was signing a Promoter agreement with a rooftop club in NYC to host/DJ a weekly Celebrity Happy Hour and just like that, I became a Promoter. It was an awesome experience and I can't wait to do it again. It wasn't easy but it was rewarding and what you've explained in this message is spot on!
This was golden. Thank you!
Really cool you're putting this out there! Fortunately enough, I have multiple friends with releases on various labels: Andhera Records, Rawsome Deep, Whoyostro. Two of them are on the lineup for a festival called Elements Lakewood. I'm lucky to have so much first hand insight into music production and the business side of things. I'm not sure why asking them for help brushing up on my DJ'ing is so anxiety inducing, but I'm okay with everything else 😂 I'm glad you're here, man. Will be purchasing soon.
Appreciated that you touched on the social aspects and the importance of building relationships and broke it down from a promoters perspective that was dope! Thanks 🙏
Absolutely!
Im finding your videos in perfect order. 🥰 its like right when I am in a certain stage of this journey, in these difficult times, i find the perfect content from you that tells me exactly what I need to know in the time. New vids and old vids alike. Truly amazing. Thank you!
Wonderful!
I agree so much man. I am thinking similarly and gonna do just these as soon as I can
Brother . As we speak I have a message saying "please send a link to your mixes for consideration" .. I dont wanna fall in that trap.. I'm going to start using your angle cos it just makes so much sense and will start first thing in the morning.
You're such a blessing
Awesome Video, Andrew. Warm vibes man!
Great video as always,thanks Andrew 💙
Love it! Given the opportunity I’ll play for a couple of beers!😅👌
Thank you for the awesome class and continued work you do.......legend!
Much appreciated!
Andrew thanks for all this tips & iv learnt slots of thing from watching you're video's a lot of time, have learned to play the way You mixed, thanks a ton, love from Goa, India❣️
Without you the idea of becoming a dj would’ve been too distant and when I was needing the last few steps you swoop in again🙌 thnx teach 🔥
Thanks so much man. Your information is invaluable to a beginning DJ like myself. I now feel as if i can stand out above the crowd of other DJ's at local venues. I feel like this is similar to the way i used to have to conduct myself during over the phone sales I did in New Zealand. Its never about you its about the customer and their emotions and interests. And connecting yourself with the customer on a personal level. Anybody can hop in a club and mix a simple transition. But not everyone can connect with individuals on a personal and professional level, and be personally interested and invested in other individuals unselfishly.
You totally get it, thanks for sharing :)
Awesome DJ tips buddy. I might join your school once I get some time. I love Newtown will definitely check the blue fig out next time I'm there. Cheers ta
Hi Andrew, stumbled on your video randomly.. enjoyed watching this because as a dj who played and ran events in sydney for more than 10 years I was interested to hear what you thought were good idea on approaches for aspiring djs. Have to agree 100% with these tips. Its so crucial to be able to build rapport with promoters. One thing I used to do ALOT was I would always club hop thur/fri/sat and get down to alot of different crews events. I think the concept of not pressuring for them to check your mixes etc or direct asking for gis... my best line was always "this party is great! really great.. let me know if you ever want any help with it. (this way im keeping the invitation open as to what i would do... promo etc .. setup/door etc) this always lead to enquirers to them for gigs. Another good tip is to rock up with lots of people and if a guy, it helps if you have a ratio thats good and balanced - not just all guys) Im actually surprised we havent met yet!! anyways great channel will check out your bio building.. because even after all this time I hate doing those things.. =) cheers
How good is this 👏🏻👏🏻....great insight into promoting yourself and how promoters work don’t think I’ve seen anything on RUclips with this content a course to help promote yourself ....great work Andrew I’ll be on this tonight 👍
Brilliant approach my man. Sometimes a bit of thought goes a long way. Thank you
Wise words from a wise man great advice big up
Congrats man ! For the DJ Bios 👌🏽 Looks very good 👌🏽
Thank you 🙌
Amazing! ❤️🔥🫶
The timing of this video is scary, I just went to a festival in nz and was wondering how the heck can I play at this festival called splore! Thanks for the info!
Thank you im so glad I found you as a teacher. You made me realise that my dreams of playing at a Show/club are more than possible
Thank you I really appreciate comments like this!
This is the best channel when it comes to DJing
This is just great life advice. If you want someone to invest in you, invest in them
Yup. Absolutely true, and be prepared for not getting an opportunity even after supporting the scene/club for a long time. It’s all part of the process and it’s important to not be bitter about it.
@@ashleyjames8722 I didn’t mean to say that one should work for free. I just meant that since rejection is a part of this journey for most of us, it’s important to not take it to heart :)
Another great helpful video Andrew. As a student can't wait to delve deeper and further into ALL the Top content through CRDJ.
Woo hooo you've got this Craig!!
Really interested in contributing to the techno scene in San Francisco in any way that I can and this has been really great advice. It’s great to know how things should go especially once we reach post-Covid. 🙏🏼
Its fair to say you are the best dj doing tutorials
learned a lot in this video. Thank you, Andrew!
My pleasure!
Top guy Andrew! I'm actually glad you mentioned you could hook up students if ever in the area, I'm from the UK but traveling oz next year hopefully so ill be sure to bring my usb ;)
Loved your video. I wish I was more convinced by your message, though. Let me explain - I’ve known so many people who are really good DJs, and they do what you’re saying - they go out to gigs, bring friends along, spend money, dance, support the scene...and they never get asked to play a gig. Whereas I did the opposite - I basically NEVER went to gigs, but I didn’t wait for someone else’s approval either. I just made my own gigs. And when those went well, people started booking me. Anyway, cheers for the video. I’ll check out more of your stuff.
Valuable info man!
Thank you for the great information. I have bought your complete package. I’ve been djing for a year and now I’m ready to take my skills further
Great to hear, thanks for always showing up and for your support Toni
@@ClubReadyDJSchool your course is exactly what I needed thanks again.
just confirmed that all the stuff i did before I tried djing was correct as in I was already promoting venus exactly the way you said and all ways trying to improve on each venue and what can do i for you
Thank you for this
This is insanely awesome 👏 thank you Andrew you just keep giving. Best course ever .
Hopefully over Easter break I will have my mix ready to upload for review. Any tips on how long it should be ?
Also to add I was actually thinking when I start out this winter coming is to play for free at venues and there happy come back again . For me it’s not the money just the buzz playing live to a crowd
Can't argue with that. Very much a sink or swim scene. But you are pretty gentle with your delivery of advise. I know your kind, lol, you're a beast and you are a efficient businessman. I've been on the receiving end of guys like you when I was a lot younger. HEY, great videos bruh.aloha🤙🏻🌴🎧❤🌈🌊🕛🌆
Super useful!🚀🚀 Thank you
Thank you !!!
Excellent Tips!
Some great advice here - cheers
your content is quality
Bro I just wanna thank u so much for ur help I’m actually going to a small house party I know it isn’t a club but still gotta start somewhere ❤️
Let me know how it goes!!! Tear it up
thank you!
This is great
Awesome 😀
Great Tips Mate
you love the students and i love the teatcher and i will make the page from the cource
(FiveBpmz)
Great video I haven't thought about approaching venues like that.
One thing I'm still stuck on is how much content should i already have on soundcloud and youtube normally before networking with these people at these venues to get to that point.
great tips mate - hope you're doing alright with all the flooding over there!
Thanks, it's a little further in land, so yes I am ok :)
Great info
Thanks for watching!
Love how this guy promotes the bio builder but says it doesn’t mean too much, you should take note of that, he is a master promoter
Haha ;)
Cool vid dood
I love your content I never played in Sydney I guess I can say because I don't know any contacts there
Hi Andrew. Am so humbled and have learned a ton. Thank you so much. Would love to be one of your students...
Never been a better time my friend as I have sale that should end today on my course: www.clubreadydjschool.com/controller-to-club/
Since following your channel I have found great benefit in our profession. Can you change some ways of thinking, in short, you open my mind. In the past I was also manager of a club and actually I had never thought about how I behaved with other DJs. I have been a DJ for over ten years but the first five I was resident in a nightclub and the other five I spent playing in the middle of the ocean on cruise ships. Today I am on the ground and I am starting again from scratch, I also decided to use my real name and not a pseudonym but I have problems, having been out for a long time I have lost all the friends and acquaintances I had and I am also a person very reserved, and following a personal trauma I developed a small form of social phobia that turns into shyness in the eyes of others and I no longer go to nightclubs, so I am practically unable to promote an event. How could I go about intriguing an owner or promoter at this point. So is my second career over before I start if I can't contribute to an event format in this sense?
HERO!
Thank you!!!!
Andrew is the 🐐
geez. you're doin a great thing for the students, i love it.. Sadly im from EU, and i actually am about to graduate to EU and International law Master's degree.. In free time I make music, but I also love djayin. Im not so good in it, I'd say juust about ok :D but if i had more time, I'd love to dj more, and have more time to actually live the nightlife.. I am not so active in it because well so much stress rn in life and yeah livin at my mums, she does not believe in going out without 'partying'... just moved back from abroad where i was more familiar with the nightlife scene. Here in my hometown Helsinki, i actually dont know much at all :p In the future whenever i have more time to dj, I will likely become a student because I am down to support your project further and also would just freaking love to play because djaying, only by myself already is something that is extremely cool and dope and lovely and just would freak to play in a nightclub. I admire Djays, and whenever I see one jamming, i'm like, that is pure exactasy.. if i left in sydney I would have maybe joined already cauz it would probably allow to meet up with other alikes more easier in real life ^^ and that would be nice not to feel so distance :O i dunno, maybe corona doin its thing but yeah, love the video, keep it up, always enjoying the positive energy
Thanks for sharing :) I am sure you'd love the course, but everything at the right time I am sure :)
@@ClubReadyDJSchool 🔥🔥💖🙏🏻🤠
I went Up to a dj last night at Area 15 in Las Vegas and asked him how he got booked. He told me he works for a company that plays at a bunch of venues in LV and told me to contact him. How do I go about building a good relationship with this dj? Should I meet in person and see if he’s willing to mentor me? Do I ask him for advice to start as a new dj? Do I shadow him during a set? Please help! Thank you!
I did see this part of the site the other day when i was watching some of the course, looks good. The finished article looks banging. Would this replace the press kit that it's advised to produce?
Yes it's the vision I initially had for the press kit at last bought to life through attention :)
Hey! The ''on site approach'' only really work when you have no gigs. Once you enter the scene you're out there playing most weekends, in other venues in other cities. To be part of the local club like a hangaround doesn't work for pro DJ's. Being a pro DJ does NOT mean that you're famous, but rather known in the venues and maybe the cities you play in.
When approaching a new club, exploring new territories, that will only happen mid week, and in my case by phone presenting myself asking for a minute or two. That short intro will give me a hint if this promoter recognize me, and worst case, I'll get a scheduled time to make the next phone call. When I get the 2 minutes, I don't push for gigs, just telling what I can do for them as a DJ and offer my services, and of course I'm updated on the events happening so I can pitch that and show my interest that way. When I get the 2 minutes, and get to listen for 10, that's the best start of new relationships.
That's why it's so important to ask for the time and not push for it. You want the promoter to talk about the stuff they have going on, and they are like everyone else, they love confirmation. I never expect bookings to happen after the first contact, but rather down the line after a few more calls, and those calls are all about asking how things are and get them talking about the events you talked about last time, and if asked, tell about a gig or two where you've had a great time. Just to show that you're still there in the game. In rare occasions I've actually visited in person. If I've had an early night and are passing close enough, I take the time to try get a handshake and present myself in person. That shows that I'm prepared to assign time for this venue even when I'm at the end of a full day and on my way home.
As a full time DJ, I'm mostly booked at least 3 months ahead or more, so if I get an unexpected free weekend day off, I don't stay home. Those are the times I actually go somewhere to either visit a DJ colleague, or offer a free warmup set to a promoter I've been in contact with. In those rare occasions I don't see that as a freebe, but an investment for the future. I never ask for anything else but a warmup set, because It's a rare day off, and I want to be able to stay and spend some money in the bar after my set, and of course, check the venue out as the night goes on. These rare nights are usually the only time I can listen to other DJ's performing live. Just my 2 cents.
Well said :)
True life lessons in here, always a good policy to help others first and then ask for something :)
Hi Andrew, great video! What advice would you have for getting a gig at a venue that doesn’t normally have a DJ? I think one of my local bars could benefit from having a DJ (me haha) play at their outdoor terrace.
Talk to their benefits, not yours :)
💘
Sound advice
ANDREW!! What a great tool!! I am currently a hobby DJ so I don't have gig photos or videos. I do want to take my DJing to the next level and start playing live. So, I want to put a bio together using your new tool. Without any gig photos or videos, though, what would you suggest I add into my bio?
This is tough, the goal: try to build content and make constant and never ending improvements. Perhaps start with images of you playing at home, or to friends. If you see the other BIOS in the Tribe talk area of my site, I'd check them out and simply aim to do better! You've got this! AD
Is it necessary to have a dj certificate from a DJ school to get shows?
Hi Andrew love your channel fella, I need some advice I've analyzed my house tunes on rekord box but the bpm's still keep moving up and down how do i rectify this?
you might be analysing your tracks in dynamic mode
@@michaelafaras8055 thanks for the help fella 😎
Hey Andrew, what you think about mixes made in DAW can they be included in self promotion ? I understand it's not live mixing but to put mix together it can take weeks to mix it and it takes hours and hours spending on Beatport pre-listening hundreds of tracks just to find next perfect track.
@@Ninja_Gaijin I don't plan to publish mixes mixed in DAW as live it's complete cheating it's maybe good todo for David Guetta or paris Hilton :) About the timing it takes lot of time not to mix but it takes time to find tracks in Beatport or Traxsource it takes hours and need prelisten hundreds of tracks and since it's not my main job so i do it in free time. Unless I put tracks from Top100 which would take few hours to complete and which I would say it's same cheating as call premixed mix as live mix.
And if Dj's like John Digweed is not treated seriously than I don't know who it is then as many producers and dj's use DAW to prerecord they mixes for compilations or radio shows www.ableton.com/en/pages/artists/john_digweed/ . For me mixes made in DAW is not about showing my live mixing it's more about show my music selection.
I like that picture bro where did you get it
20 years ago at some random place in Newtown Sydney
good video!
is that a DDJ 400 hooked to an external mixer? I thought I might actuly be the only person on earth doing that lol
100%
How long do you get access to these profiles after you’ve signed up? Is it an annual renewal?
Lifetime access
I own a venue just outside of Nashville, how do I find club style Dj's ? I have a Karaoke DJ service that we use for Karaoke nights, but they don't know how to mix or play the type of music you hear in a Nashville Club... Please help as we are opening a 2nd bar and will be running a club DJ night every weekend. Thanks!
I can post in our Club Ready Tribe groups but we need to take this to email. Please email me venue, address, any info to help sell this and your contact details and I'll post in my group for you and see if we have any takers: andrew@clubreadydjschool.com
Whats the going rate for opening djs?
Maybe $50 - $100 for the hour
Actually, just be an interesting person ;) Everything else is just manipulation, if everything you do is still just geared towards one goal. I think it should be like: be cool, support other people, have things to talk about, pay attention to other people, don’t only think about yourself - and then gigs will turn up.
