As a DJ this is rule number 1: DO NEVER USE WIFI, ONLY USE USB KEYS AND ALSO HAVE ALWAYS ANOTHER USB AS A BACKUP PLAN!

You didnt learn how to dj in 10 days, you learned that with yours friends you can do anything in 10 days

That crowd simulator was so real💀 the amount of times I’ve been asked for bad bunny at an edm event 😭

As a veteran of over 30 years this video made me so happy, and took me back to the days I started in school with two of my mates doing house parties. If you love it, keep doing it... Be patient, practice practice practice... Don't depend on just the tech... Learn to use your ears and your body's inner clock. It takes practise. Sync can help, there's nothing wrong in using it... Don't let anyone tell you it's not DJing. But don't rely on it. DJing is 90% song selection and reading the crowd. Transition techniques is not as important as most people think. Half of the time the audience won't even notice the tricks you do.

Bro went all out getting the flx-6, if you ever stop DJing I'll happily take it of your hands

If you plan on DJing again for a club or party or something, I would STRONGLY recommend that you make a few 10 minute pre recorded mixes JUST IN CASE you need to walk away from the board for a while.

having friends to show you the ropes will make the learning process 10000x faster. you are blessed bro.  1 day with friends /mentors is = to 1 yr of learning for most

This is me! I just accepted a 4 months job as a resident dj at a touristic resort that will start a month from now and I never djed my entire life! Wish me luck! :D

prime example why you never rely in streaming....always bring a USB +1

Brrrrrrooooooo.....as a fellow DJ there is something rather warming about this video....there is a lot of side eye and hate in our biz.....but after watching your video I am sure you have some takeaways but if there is something I can offer from my experience DJing it would be this

1 - don't rely on SoundCloud for your tracks, have a drive with your music on it for moments like no wifi
2 - prepare for worst case scenarios  - is your software up to date in terms of firmware updates for the decks etc
3 - don't be afraid to say no but say it in a way that doesn't say no (I'll play it if there is time, sure I have that track if I can mix it in I will etc)
4 - get some business cards and have them by your decks to hand out
5 - share your set, if the night was rockin' people will want to know what you played

I mean there is a load more I could say but I don't want to be that guy.......welcome to the club my brother!

Take Care

im a wedding dj, and unfortunately the best mixer in my office. The sheer amount of time, study and practice i had to do one my own to get to the point i am was crazy because i didnt have anyone to explain things. I wanted to teach others what i know soo bad but most of the other djs just dont care about it as an art. Its easier to play full songs for them and simple slider transitions. I tried to host "classes" a few times but when no one shows up that breaks you a little inside. There are 7 other djs in my company who just go out there practically pretending to be Spotify and an mc. They really dont have any respect for the craft. even my boss was like, im happy we have you, i certainly couldnt do what you do. all of this to say, you are so blessed to have a group of friends excited to teach and work with you. I hope you keep learning.

FLX6 as ur first controller is crazy... lol.

thought this was a large channel for the first 18 minutes, only noticed when i went to subscribe. really well made video, youre going to go far.

"I don't know what else to say other than you just gotta do it" after a 15-20 minute teaching rant is the essence of teaching somebody to DJ. It must happen.

The internet issues really demonstrated why you should never rely on streaming music - it's not reliable. Audio quality is also a thing (especially with Soundcloud), but I can see the audience not really caring, so there's that.

Anyway, good job learning it in 10 days!

I've been a dj for 24 years and this made me smile the entire video. Congratulations brother, welcome to the party.

Are we not gonna talk about this part? 3:16 😂😂

Q: "You know someone that can DJ my party?"
A: "My friend, Kyle is a DJ"

"Just remember to have fun because these kids wont give a fuck about your transitions"....best advice right here...and of course always bring a USB backup!

It’s easy to be a great party DJ.  First rule is to not charge anything. Everyone loves that.
