About this Event
The DJ 101 and 201 workshops are intended to provide an overview of the craft with DJ Del Pilar!
- DJ 101 is for you if you have little to no experience with DJing, and is hands-off.
- DJ 201 is for those who have attended DJ 101 to get some hands on experience with the gear!
You must purchase a ticket to both DJ 101 and 201 if you plan on attending both!
We won't be able to cover everything, but hopefully this will help you start your DJing journey.
You’re welcome to attend the 101 and 201 classes as many times as you like!
DJ 101
Want to learn how to DJ, but not sure where to start? Sign up for this 101 course for an introduction to DJing with DJ del Pilar!
What to expect?
This is a hands-off course for those with no experience to familiarize themselves with definitions, gear and where to find music. You’ll be encouraged to think about what you want to get out of DJing and how that might shape what you need to learn. You’ll also meet others who are interested in DJing!
Takeaways
You’ll go home with some resources for learning more about DJing including sites where you can learn to beat match using your computer and buy music. You can also sign up to attend our 201 class that begins shortly after the 101 is over.
DJ 101 is PWYC with a suggested donation of $5-20 to help cover the cost of equipment, planning & space.
Live Stream
DJ Del Pilar will show you how to connect a live stream on Mixcloud and then perform a set from start to finish (folks can ask questions throughout). Free with ticket to either 101 or 201!
