SOME OF THE NEW SKILLS YOU’LL LEARN…
•How I set up my gear, and the functions that really matter to me – It’s crucial to have your gear set up the right way if you want to DJ like I do. Once I show you the features and functions that really matter, and how I use them, you’ll immediately begin to understand how I DJ. Soon you’ll be using YOUR gear in new, exciting ways too
•The secrets behind all of my best-known transitions – I’ll show you EXACTLY how to perform my best-known tricks, including never-before revealed breakdowns of signature routines such as my famous Daft Punk “One More Time” vs FISHER “Losing It” (over 2m views on YouTube) and many more
•The individual skills you need to move your DJing to the next level – How to master loops, hot cues, keymixing, quantize, filters, spinbacks, pitch & tempo, “fader dexterity” and other features and functions of your gear, to move WAY beyond beatmixing
•How to create incredible, mind-blowing build-ups – Learn how to use every feature of your gear to make your crowds “scream for the drop”. Learn how to push your gear to the limits, using wild pitch changes, crazy crossfader action, even your start/stop buttons, to add tension and excitement… before finally letting them have it when YOU choose to!
•The way I build my exciting live mashups and remixes – Just like in gaming, it’s the killer “combos” that move you away from the rest, and put the real power in your hands. I’ll show you how to combine the individual tricks and skills that I teach you, so you can easily create live mashups and remixes of your own, that blow your crowds away
•The easy way to DJ using four decks – Most modern DJ systems have four decks, but few DJs use them all. I’ll show and teach you my “four deck system”, explaining how I use the “extra” decks (if you want to play exciting, dynamic sets, you NEED to start doing this)
•The unique ways I use acapellas in my sets – I’m famous for my creative use of acapellas – for me they are the “glue” that holds together my transitions. From start to end I’ll reveal to you how I find, prepare and incorporate acapellas in my sets, including my method for making “problem acapellas” work. Soon you’ll be able to use your favourite acapellas exactly how I use mine
•How to use effects to add excitement to your DJing – Whether it’s using echo to make things sound epic, or using the “noise” effect to build tension, you’ll learn exactly where, why and how to incorporate effects
•My “track elements” approach to DJing – I do not see songs as “complete things” when it comes to DJing. Instead, I approach them as containing “elements”, which I can pick and choose from to create my sets. I’ll teach you this method, which is a big break from how some DJs play, but is key to my style of DJing
•How to perform like me on any DJ controller – The way I perform does NOT need four pro decks and a pro mixer. I’ll show you how to use any controller to get results like mine, even the smallest controllers, with tricks and workarounds for when you don’t have access to the same features. DO NOT let your gear hold you back!
