Nice t-shirt. Next step; custom V-moda headphones with the "Jon Sine" logo on the cups ;-)

[@Koohlim]

hey man, thanks a lot for sharing! Inspired me a lot! I keep watching your video hahaha! I do love make people dance, and right now im just finished my dj class (and about going to make the 1st gig in my friend wedding)!

[@danecustance2734]

Your channel is a treasure trove of info dude thanks.

[@kaylzuccherino384]

make a video on How To Promote your song

[@abrahamrodriguezpineda1848]

majority of the time but my friend promoted everything himself and he got his track to #7 on the Electro chart on Beatport on top of Skrillex and Afrojack

[@amex4453]

wow...that's interesting

[@marlon-cu3xn]

[@aborajah1541]

Is there ways for younger djs to get more exposure and actually play out. Also what are some ways that we can get DJ sets that we record heard? Thanks so much love from Canada!

[@amex4453]

upload good mixes on mixcloud, and share on social media with all the good djs of your city

[@anand10ful]

Awesome one

How old were you when you got your first gig?

[@EbbesMedia]

Nice story Jon! But I have a question. What if the clubs you're trying to reach out to only have mainstream artists with mainstream music? Mostly I produce Hardstyle, which in my country isn't that big. What would you recommend? I switch up my type of music and get recognized first or?

[@amex4453]

i think it's better that you play the music which the crowd enjoys and suits the style of the club , if the people like mainstream music there's no way you're going to get away by playing hardstyle , you could always throw in a few tracks here and there but mainly stick to the music which the people enjoy or could enjoy, you must remember that you're djing for them and not for yourself . Hope this helps :)

Can a 14 yr old get a gig because i am 14 and i dont think any one would like watching kid djying?

[@robinpfeiffer3814]

I started playing my first gigs at the age of 14 or 15. I got to know older DJs and was able to show them that I was really able to dj and that I'm ready to take this more seriously. They invited me to their shows and let me do a few transitions. As I got older and gained some more experience some of them let me do their warm-up. In the meantime, I played at my friends partys and when i turned 17 I was ready for my first "real gigs". People still ask me how old I am whenever I dj somewhere but most people sounded more positively surprised about my age. Looking back I had only one gig where the promoter was very skeptical about my age but I was able to convince him at the end of the night. Hope I could help you ;)

[@ayhantirpanli7601]

wait till 18 dude

[@lightfx6545]

i'm 11

[@abrahamrodriguezpineda1848]

Do re-search lots of places don't allow underage kids due to strict laws

[@slidice9293]

hy bro, i´m 15 now and i had my first GIG at 14, in a restaurant in a friend birthday party but i didn´t get more until now

[@kade1671]

"HABT IHR NOCH BURGER???"

[@paramountmotivations2976]

Man, DJ'ing was soooooooooo FUN. I know for starting out years ago, I did many gigs for FREE

[@Clacksper]

Is the light done by someone else or is this the job of a dj too?

[@Jonsine]

There should be always a light guy I never had to take care of it

[@amex4453]

it's called a vj

[@jannickrybtke3779]

I have to choose a artist name. My current thought is Jannick T.R (My real name is Jannick Theil Rybtke). Do you have any good ideas?

[@kaylzuccherino384]

Janny rybtke

[@jannickrybtke3779]

Thanks for your suggestion :) I will consider it :)

[@kaylzuccherino384]

musicbyjan, jannix,?? :)

[@jannickrybtke3779]

Jannix that's kinda cool! I will definetly consider it! thanks :D

[@robinpfeiffer3814]

What kind of music do you play / produce? The name DEATHK!LL0AR69 wouldn't fit to a singer/songwriter ;) I think you get what i'm trying to say

I need a DJ-Name so could someone please help me with a DJ-Name, my real name is Julian Bates.

[@amex4453]

i think it's better if you come up with it yourself , just make sure that it's something which is meaningful to you

[@lightfx6545]

DJ AMAN Yeah, but it's hard.

[@mariovinci8573]

What's wrong with Julian Bates?

[@lightfx6545]

Mario Vinci Do u think it's good?

[@OoMrBixooO]

It's good but there are already a lot of Julian's out there. :)

I love producing, but I hate DJing. It's so boring and lame. All you do is just stand there, make a list, use harmonic mixing and sync every song. Then stand there some more.

[@amex4453]

it's definitely not boring or lame....seems like you've had a bad experience with it or are struggling

[@zeroempathy5194]

man, if you become a bigger artist, and you have to go to play, like seriously let me be the dj performs under your name, that way you have to take care of producing only!:D

[@ex-muslimlibertarianatheis9008]

Zero Empathy Lol sounds good to me 😂

[@zeroempathy5194]

Ex-Muslim Libertarian Atheist greag, we made the deal!;D

[@ahmeditron4440]

Honestly its the feeling u get when you make alot of people happy and go crazy for the music ur and being in controll of that creates a speciall vibe thats my motive of djing i hve been doing it for 9 years now and i never felt bored of djing !!!
