Practice and Prepare
Practice makes for much better DJ sets than a
free-form approach to the craft. Having only a
vague idea of what you are going to play usually
makes for a halfhearted DJ set. You’ll find that
accomplished turntablists and groove-riders alike
have all spent countless hours perfecting their
sets. We don’t necessarily recommend pre-
planning the entire set, either, but you should get
to know your options before you show up to
perform. Spend time to find tracks that mix well
and make playlists of those tunes for future use.
Make different kinds of playlists for different kinds
of gigs. Finding tracks that work well together
takes time and it rarely happens spontaneously at
the gig.
