in order to be a dj, you MUST, i mean MUST have music experience for at least 10 years. if not, your wasting your time. you need to know the exact bpm with every song within a couple of seconds, and know what key the song is in. so if you havent any sort of experience, dont do it. your just wasting your time and money.

Just get a free mixing program and mix some mp3s, or crack one!

just press the auto bpm button at first and work on other things like fading and stuff

Soon after you will get better and better
