This is hands down the best beginner dj video I've found on TH-cam!!! I've been watching so many for about a month now, and none broke down the basics like you did. I feel confident and excited going into practice, rather than overwhelmed and lost. Thank you so much!! Would love to see more from ya. -4our
I agree, this is bringing it back to basics. We all need to crawl before we can run. Look into Music Theory and also Song Structures. I found these very handy in understanding how music works and how songs are structured. And don't forget to Practice Practice Practice.
This tutorial is great because he supplies the example tracks as well, which ensures that everyone can follow this tutorial and match everything that he does. For absolute beginners this learning material is foundational. Something that might be super obvious to experts isn't necessarily known by everyone, like the counting of bars.
I did do some old school mixing on my mates vinyl decks in the 80's and have just bought my first digital DJ controller, Numark Mixtrack Pro2. Looking forward to getting stuck into a journey learning with your help at the ripe old age of 64. About time someone talked in lay mans terms.

Yo! I appreciate what you said in the intro! often times we think we need the best and most expensive equipment to get started or be good at it but that isn't the case and this applies to so many situations in life. As a guitarist who wants to get into DJing I really want the least expensive way to get in so that I can experience and see if i really enjoy it or is it just another fad i have.
I think the thing is that the equipment is already at a high standard. Eg if you wanted to recommend an acoustic instrument, you may have a list of things to avoid when buying! Eg for flute, we have to buy or rent a 'student flute'. Not a flute from a music shop.... a flute from a flute shop. A guitar from a guitar shop...not a guitar from a generic music shop.
You explained this perfectly for me a total beginner and stranger to the equipment. Thank you I was able to mix my first song. The follow along download and count was exactly what I needed. Thanks again. (YES) for the part 2 💯
Yes! Yes! I’m getting it! I’m almost an old timer and just started doing this just for fun. I got into a bit of inexpensive gear and your video has really gotten me in my way! Wish I could have a video like this everyday to practice and advance my skills. Thanks!!
Question I was able to get the 1st side of the disc to work and play sound, but for some reason I can’t get any sound on my second 1, mad confused right now
Thank you sooo much for this! Incredibly helpful- this video is one of the best I’ve seen hands down for learning how to dj. I’m buying my controller tomorrow and can’t wait to continue learning with you!
This is really well done. The UI elements to circle things and such help a lot. The extra effort to include those is appreciated. Your general approach is great, man. 👍
You are awsome bro. You make it so much better then anyone on youtube. Your baby steps us what I need. Please make a complete set of lessons in a same teaching pattern nice and slow using the entire same setup or same controller. I went and bought same controller with Dell laptop. What's your input on windows vs Mac? I really appreciate it. 🙏🏾
I would love additional tutorials since I am new to it and I have the DDJ-Rev1 I specifically would like help with simple scratch technique like transformer and where to get good samples like drum kit etc….
Thanks so much this is better than others tutorials that i have watched this one is top im sure keen to learning from you for my because i have a brain of a child i put the number in a new document folder so i can repeat it
This is amazingly covered and works for other controllers too by just philosophy. You cut out a lot of the fluff that other tutorials seem to bog down with and get the basics rolling for getting your first two songs mixed. Keep it up!
The most luckiest thing I've always take it on the go that I have the most, Pioneer DDJ 400, HP 14 laptop, JBL Xtreme 2 and a pioneer DJ headphones. How lucky i am. 😎🔥🎉🎉🎉💯💯💯
You are so much better at explaining things than people in other videos I’ve watched - thank you!
Does this model have a 4 deck option please
OMG I just mixed my first song with you! This is so exciting!
I’m glad!
