Once had to to dj for 2hours but 2nd dj forgot his mixer main cable,and got to dj 4 hours for a first ever set! Lucky had 4hours ready! Good tip guys !

[@flipsyder]

Breakdown for TLDW(watch): 1. Be humble professional and easy to work with, always learning MINDSET! 2. Hold back your ego 3. Watch what other Dj's or artists are doing and add YOUR FLAVOR to it. Do what makes you unique. If you can't find it watch others until you mold something into your own. 4. Think about your equipment needed. BACKUP for your gear because the club only provides the equipment sometimes those cables go bad and better to rely on yourself. It shows self care for your career. Back up mixes! or a way to connect your phone or your uploaded mixes to the actual equipment itself. 5. Luck = PREPAREDNESS and OPPORTUNITY meet 6. Go to the venues, to network, with no intention of getting anything out of it other than a social media connection. Do this again over some odd weeks. DON'T be pushy and make yourself known with your community or club or the scene. 7. Who's your audience..... Play to your audience! are they young? are they old ? are they chillen? do they want to go hard? Set time? 8. Plan your set! depending on venue and audience or expected audience. 9. Stay ORGANIZED!! grab a curated playlist... and grab some party stuff 10. Connect with people the right people. DJ's (the right ones) will hit you up for a cover or cause they know you... create that community for yourself and it will grow because DJ's who have been in the scene for a while will know a lot of peoples! 11. You will have to step outside of your comfort zone if you want to progress for a career, but if you are doing it for fun you will most likely do it just for fun. You become the business itself rather than just be a part of it. You will need social media and content and a place where they can contact you. 12. You can charge more if you are bringing in your own gear, but the thing you have to keep in mind is the opportunity that that venue or that gig provides. Sometimes we sacrifice pay for opportunity. Weigh your options! 13. If you have a reliable gig use that to up your game or level up! sometimes its not about the money its about your growth musically and artistically! use that! Amazing stuff guys keep it up!

Those are all great tips, really love your channel, i'm a hobbyist living in Northern Thailand, done a few gig here and there. I've always listened and recenttly started to mix dnb/jungle, however as I'm getting old, i get lost with music genres. And promoters are sometimes very specific about the genre of music they want on a given night. I'd love to have a video from you guys explaining the main and current nightclub genres and their differences. Cheers and always looking forward to your content!

Bpms my man

[@anarchetype1206]

Just do your own Rave and play there. You ll connect to DJs and other Bussiness ppl by nature. Be humble if you re a kind host and its a nice party your network will grow by default. Thats how i had my very first gig and i know Club Owners now where i could play if i wanted to just because they were on my partys connecting with me having a drink when they were a guest or an artist back then :) And btw. the most successfull DJs around me are the humble ones that like to talk with ppl and are not greedy about the money or the fame, they just enjoy doing music for the people and share that feeling ;)

[@deanox3119]

Bang on guys great Advice Thxs. 🔥🔥

[@bbgunsdj]

Thanks ya'll. I've been in a bit of a rut with gigs. It's been feeling like more work than fun. Then I found your channel it switched my mindset to a more fun perspective. Now more gigs are coming in because of just a little change in mindset. Just vibe. Thanks.

I liked the first clip in this ...where can I watch the full video ?

[@LVIS-a]

Thank you

[@Le_Lys_Eclectique]

Hi guys and thank you for the video! Great suggestions! Here in Italy, and especially in the small region where I live in the north, there is a really strange situation in the field of DJ work. Most DJs have their main job elsewhere and only DJ as a second job. This, as you can imagine, creates an imbalance in the field of compensation since very few DJs do it as a job and, as a result, compensation to DJs is much lower than in other countries, as they ask for less money and, therefore, they create imbalance and thus devalue the industry, create unfair competition and often compromised artistic quality. What do you think and what practical advice can you give to those who would like to DJ as a job? Another problem here in Italy is that there is no collaboration, there is an unhealthy competition and you often see DJs stabbing other DJs in the back. A part that here in Italy is very common to smile to you in the front and stab you in the back... We are like at cave man level in the job field... 😓 Do you think this is an attitude that we, as Italians, mainly have, or is it like this everywhere? Please be honest... Thank you guys!!!

i know a few italians, growing up outside of, and now working in, NYC. i wouldnt necessarily say its italian culture, but i wouldnt dismiss it as being italian culture either. however, if there is a music scene that is new to the area and gaining popularity quickly, theres usually a lot of chaos, entitlement, backstabbing and undercharging to get work. i can say this with experience as i was also in a bagpipe band for a time with a band based out of new york city. the bands there had that phase, 40-50 years ago, though not as bad as new jersey, the next state over where i live and grew up, where theres a lot of infighting, backstabbing, trashtalking and stealing members from other local bands because they dont like the leadership of the band they joined, so they create their own. ive played with some of these groups as a couple of parade organizers grew up in NYC so they always hire a couple of nyc pipe bands, so ive seen it with my own eyes. some of these people just outright refuse to perform with certain people, even if their contract tells them to play with them at an afterparty

[@djextrodinare9495]

Hello, I have a question. I’m on a budget, which older Mac Book should I get for DJing ?

[@BigG5]

I love music

[@tumeta]

I dislike suat's style, tiktok djing lmao. do it for the reel or whatever. then again it's just for publicity i think so good for him if it lands him non mobile dj gigs.

[@edermartinez9491]

❤️

[@whatsinaname33]

not the James hype bebebebebe 😂😂😂😂😂

[@e1ectroniKa]

Shame Suat had to start with the wank factor of djing. But all the rest of it was awesome advice. I totally agree with most of it

[@potzenotzen]

Know ur records and play records that u really love, thats it

[@JustinH95]

Play records that the crowd really loves

[@wickedwaiata2939]

Great advice but if I was getting head rubs, I'd go to sleep too!

[@furleysbrain]

1 - Have a good product (your style, skills) 2 - Know the right people (sad but true) 3 - OPTIONAL - Release music that's basically it

Hey, Man I have $1000-1200 USD FOR DJ CONTROLLER can you please suggest me the best pioneer dj controller in 2023

[@Jerryleedlelee]

It isn't a good idea to buy a controller like that for your first one. Start small and work your way up

[@tonyreece9250]

Ddj 400 then buy a flx6 when you learn the 400

[@siddharthgupta6601]

@@Jerryleedlelee I am a music producer and want to make a career in DJing and music production. I want to buy a control that has almost all the features of the DDJ 1000n CDJ type, and I will be playing in clubs, lounges, parties, IG reels and on youtube. So I want controller which has almost all professional features for playing live shows
