Reading new music is hard. Learning new songs takes time. And whenever you ask for help on how to read faster, people say “just practice” – and they’re absolutely right, except for one thing… For a student of mine, this one thing made the difference between learning something in 5 hours versus 5 minutes. For many students learning to play online, this is the #1 mistake when it comes to learning piano and playing new songs. And this one thing is something that over 60+ of my private students have used to make consistent progress learning to play piano… It’s not just “if you practice,” it’s also “how you practice”
All you need to get from complete beginner to your first DJ gig in just a few weeks, using any DJ controller. It assumes you know nothing about DJing – music, gear, mixing, performing, setting up in a venue – and shows you just the important stuff you need to know to get that first gig under your belt. Imagine yourself fading out the final song at the end of your first DJ set. The silence as you cut the music lasts only as long as it takes the crowd to realise the night’s over, and roars its approval in your direction! Imagine the feeling. If you’ve stared at your DJ controller not knowing where to start for weeks, months, even years, this is the course for you.
