    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 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!

  • @yasaduana9523
    @yasaduana9523 5 лет назад

    My fave tip is Work with what you have. I don't opt for expensive gears/studios I started producing music and practice djing inside bedroom with low spec laptop. Motivation is what gets me started and strong determination is what keeps me going.

  • @deezyrides

  • @richardgrant8634
    @richardgrant8634 5 лет назад

    My favourite tip was the one about DJ packs because RUclips suggestions can only get you so far, a playlist already prepared by another DJ would save lots of time

  • @BenOnFifa
    @BenOnFifa 5 лет назад

    Tip 1 has to be the best. I’ve played some poor controllers before working my way up and you can always make it sound good if you work hard enough.

  • @purestaxentertainment
    @purestaxentertainment 5 лет назад

    Working with what you have is very important- you can constantly learn and master your craft so you are somewhat prepared and that can take you far

  • @Мемерони
    @Мемерони 5 лет назад +6

    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.

  • @DJSHTEEX
    @DJSHTEEX 5 лет назад +2

    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!

  • @ghostqueen2463
    @ghostqueen2463 5 лет назад

    My favourite tip is number #3. The advise I took from it was to consistently make content and put the mixes out there.

  • @kristofferwilliams9776
    @kristofferwilliams9776 5 лет назад

    Tip #5: Making friends I think is the most helpful for me currently... I never thought of being an attendant/fan before being a dj... Very good advice!

  • @jonmacdonald5944
    @jonmacdonald5944 5 лет назад

    My favorite tips is networking. Get to know the promoters, staff and djs at your local clubs. Offer to help, free of charge of course. Do promotions, hype events, bring friends out with you and eventually you'll get your chance to shine!!

  • @hharvey3
    @hharvey3 5 лет назад

    I agree with providing mixes to multiple sources. I place my music on mixcloud, soundcloud, Hearthis, plus; I drive uber and stream mixes in my car and provide the mixes to the passengers.

  • @dipeshgurung3298
    @dipeshgurung3298 5 лет назад

    @gaaron73 5 лет назад

    My favorite tip was the RekordBox Settings You’ve Never Used. And this is because I’ve been wanting to scratch on my ddj 400 and didn’t know how to change cross fader setting and you helped me so much. Now I can scratch on my Ddj 400

  • @maribrinas

  • @chipko
    @chipko 5 лет назад

    I just got back from my 3rd ever gig (but first one with a DDJ-400) playing to people who flew in from Berlin. I am beaming and I pushed the notion of wanting to do it again -wooop, I can!!! :D
    The experience itself is priceless, I dont mind doing this for free when I can enjoy when people dance to the tunes I'm playing! Small intimate gigs are fun and rewarding, if you can't find one, start one!

  • @Yojindo
    @Yojindo 5 лет назад

    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.

  • @danpinuela2079

    @jakubwiderynski8420 5 лет назад

    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.

  • @TeaBagginsMcGee
    @TeaBagginsMcGee 5 лет назад

    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

  • @deepanshu__sahu
    @deepanshu__sahu 5 лет назад

    Yep that's right" you have to take that first gig" whatever happens, whether you like it or not, whether the crowd is your type or not u
    have to take that first chance bcuz it brings you a confidence and the test of ur skills that what u have improve...

  • @djduartehenriques7961
    @djduartehenriques7961 5 лет назад

    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

  • @Peaky17

    Wanna win that shirt. My favourite tip was no. 5 because taking that first gig helps get you the connections and allows you to prove yourself to get booked again!

  • @LaDiscoGuishbac
    @LaDiscoGuishbac 5 лет назад

    My favorite tip is to use what ever you have. I started off with old equipment and would record music off the radio with cassette tapes and transfer them into CDs. Now I pay for music but we all have to start from somewhere.

  • @davidiakobidze2093
    @davidiakobidze2093 5 лет назад

  • @alessandromarino9075

  • @Jafurr
    @Jafurr 5 лет назад

    My favorite tip is the first one, cuz i keep finding excuses and saying okay when i get this or that I'll be good, and hearing that i just gotta use what i have and just practice was beautiful

  • @FZKsk8
    @FZKsk8 5 лет назад +1

    My favourite is about free music.
    I always try to make it legal way.
    The main reason is not to stealing from our brothers in arms.
    Second one is the quality. When you're ripping tracks from social media and/or SoundCloud you got to worry about how crappy it sounds on large speaker systems.

  • @yuvaltalmor8962
    @yuvaltalmor8962 5 лет назад

    my favorite tip is joining the a dj group. that way, you can get a lot of music, and it also onnects with your first point which what to do if you dont have connections. so this way, you will build connections, and your Dj career can get a lot better!

  • @marvinmarcos8424
    @marvinmarcos8424 5 лет назад

    Nice tips...i do a lot of the tips you have said from music to going out in events djing for free and promoting myself doing some mixes and distributing it to my friends... its a tough world out here to have a club gigs or event but as long as i love what i am doing i dont care about the compensation its the joy of seeing people enjoy mt stuff that is whats more important to me... hope you still remember me bro, my sister got the bag allready and its on its way here now in paris thanks a lot and godbless.

  • @RandomGuy-tf9im
    @RandomGuy-tf9im 5 лет назад

    Love the tip saying that we should work with what we have and also make some genuine friends. This has affected me a lot well I haven't started djing I am a producer. I have some old equipment that my dad had and worked with what i had which was @the time to me not much but now it is a lot of equipment, the problem was software but i got it sorted it out, I got some record deal offers and opportunities. Friends also help to get o places where you couldn't on your own. Thanks Carlos

  • @christiancanseco8579
    @christiancanseco8579 5 лет назад

    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 ❤

    Just had my first gig last night and I gotta say it was interesting. I was happy with how well I did mixing-wise but couldn’t read the crowd too well. Given that they were a lot of foreign exchange students new to the US party scene, I wish I could’ve done a better job. Friends were telling me my mixing was great but I now think I need to network more.

    Hey Carlo, I have a request. Could you do a video showing how to transition in cool ways between songs with vocals? For example reggeton. I would also like you to do a video explaining how to mix edm genres like progressive house, big room etc (not techno pleas, this is much easyer, it never has vocals or harmony, its just drums). I mean, I can do the normal transitions and some tricks you showed in some videos, but I would like to learn more. In addition, you normally focus your videos in beats wich are not similar to this style. Music that they usually play in Ultra, Tomorrowland and this festivals. Thanks man, keep it up!
