DJ Lessons

 

Beat Matching

No one likes train-wrecks, whether in real life or behind the decks. Master the art of getting those songs perfectly in time, allowing you to nail the mix and get it sitting just right.

EQ + FX

When it comes to EQ + FX, less is always more. It’s about the subtle changes and tweaks that can allow your songs to land in the sweet spot and build intensity.

Set Structure

Once you’ve got the technical skills down pat, it’s important to keep the momentum going. Choosing the right songs makes a huge impact on building engagement and enjoyment.

 

Production Lessons

 

Composition

Each genre has its own unique elements that define it. Whether it be the rolling bass lines of tech-house, or the off beat drums of lo-fi hip hop, each have their own key features that make them tick and make them great.

Sampling

Want to chop drums like your favourite rap producers? Want to incorporate that touching gospal vocal into your classic house track? Sampling is one of the best ways to light the fire of inspiration and when done correctly, can even bypass those pesky copyright laws.

Mixing and Mastering

This can often be the most dreaded part of the music making process, but it needn’t be. Mixing is surprisingly easily once you know what you are trying to achieve, and can often end up being one of the most enjoyable parts of the song making process.
