Do some gigs?

Don't quite have the confidence for that yet! Just a bedroom DJ for the time being, maybe sometime in the future if I start taking it more seriously. For now I'm just looking to broaden my skills in terms of mixing and don't know what else there is to learn!

Do some sets for an online net radio station.

Concidering I got accepted when I was absolutely shit (and ahem... there was one being run by the dj tutor community or whatever where they specifically asked to not be sent demos, just to have a try) I'm sure your plenty good enough, and if your good you'll get encouraging feedback too.

So: How about set flow?

practice the pose




it is the best and only form of communication with the crowd. as you can see, the crowd (in the pic) is completely responding to it. it's like an advanced life-form communicating in zeta waves (in the pic, bottom right between the two speakers is a girl, by her face you already know she's thinking "my god is he really hetero?"

normal human beings, cannot understand trance music, therefore the edm culture has evolved to such an advanced position that we communicate in pose. for instance, the pose for "i need my damn blow right now!", is:



the pose for "lol, i know this music is just that majestic", is:



then we have the "lol whats going on guys?":



as you can see, there is another step in being a dj...it's the communication. if you master this you're bound to be top 10 in the dj mag top 100, lickity split no diggity no doubt.

On a serious note, I suggest harmonic mixing. And if you feel EQ'ing are what you say you feel, maybe you should practice that more, because it doesn't make any sense what you say.

That should work the best, but be prepared to take some heavy criticism.

I know what your saying, and yes I am always trying to improve my EQing and it is very far from perfect, and I know thats one thing I can improve my mixing but I am not sure what else there is that I can do.... so thats why I am asking: what else can I learn outside of EQing to improve my mixing?

And in terms of harmonic mixing I dont think I have enough music backgroud to get into that sorta thing... although maybe thats something I can work towards in the future. But I guess they have those programs you can download which automatically detect the key of each song... so maybe that would be possible!

When I'm using two decks I don't touch EQs very much. I just don't find them completely necessary if you program your set properly. Also work on your levels as this is something I find all DJs can work on. You don't want your mix to get louder as you bring in another song or to get softer when you take song out of the mix. You need to keep a consistent level throughout.
