    Do you live stream on Twitch or UA-cam - do you have a twitch channel? 👇🏼

      Was streaming simultaneously on Twitch and UA-cam, but kept getting stupid strikes on UA-cam. I am a music producer as well, but simply do not have the library of my own tracks to not play other tracks. We are DJ's for goodness sake. To get strikes for playing other's music is a bit fucked off for me. I got way more followers, viewers, and interaction on UA-cam, but I had to stop because I didn't want my channel shut down. On Twitch, I've grown very little, and it's frustrating as hell. Any advice, or other avenues to stream on would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for what you do. Cheers!

      I steam on UA-cam sometimes TikTok and I had tried twitch, but I had a bad experience on twitch do to muted parts of my play back clips also numerous emails from twitch about possible banned or strikes , I would love to try again, but I don’t want a banned or remove from any platform. I heard you state so many times on your video on how it’s so great to Dj on twitch, please if there is any way that you can help, I’ll take it, but for now I just stay on UA-cam, so far so good for this very very small starting Dj, I would love to expand and I can humble myself to try again

      Having the same problems as other people in this feed. I'm a music producer / DJ and as a DJ I love to share songs that I love, right? As an artist I can assure u I love when DJs play my music, we make music to be shared!! So I feel like they are killing the scene with all these strikes ... Do u have advice for how to safely share other peoples music? There are loads of DJs who do it, how do they do it? Would a program like Snip work if the songs are clearly labelled? Thou I don't DJ from Spotify or iTunes .. is there another program I could try to title songs clearly? All advice appreciated ...

    Thanks great video. I've got a strategy for Twitch vs UA-cam now. Livestream and more mainstream for Twitch, with my more underground for DJ mix videos on UA-cam. At least so far I've had difficulty finding the underground streams and audiences.

    Hey, I was listening to your video, but I have not received the right answer for my question, how to have at least 500 followers in order to stream on UA-cam. I have just started mixing mostly Latin Techno, Afro House and Cumbia music. My goal is to stream live on YT but it is not easy to start with it as an unknown DJ. I have had some streaming on Twitch just for having fun and practicing.

      Yeah I wouldn’t stream that much we’ve done 1000 hours over 3 years, we went heavy at the start cos twitch was paying me to stream so did 60 hours a month. But DJs id just do one or two streams a week and do 2 hours cos you build a good audience over the 2 hours.
