here is a free tip in case you accidentally stop the music: start singing happy birthday- it is always someones birthday :-P
Haha I will try this out the next time I screw up 😂
that's a good one
Haha, that's brilliant
hahahahaha yesss
And if it's not, who tf is supposed to know that?! xD
"A DJ who doesn't dance to his own music is kind of suspicious" 😂 so true!
Kinda like a chef who doesn't eat their own food ...
Hold my beer -Salvatore ganacci
@@Car_Mo they don't eat but still they taste it ;)
I injured my knee so sit a lot but I am working at standing longer it does seem to help
I saw Tiesto himself mess up and use sync to catch up and it made me feel a little better about not being perfect lol
also saw him mess up 3 weeks ago :) happens everyone
There is nothing wrong with using the tools available to you to save yourself or even just help yourself
felt the same way better, getting that literally everyone got fucked up and I no one will kill you if you will :)
"8 beat loop", that's what I use to transition into a new track.
The "cue cue cue cue play" method has screwed me over a lot.
I start an 8 beat loop on the INCOMING TRACK at least 2 minutes 30 SECONDS before the Playing track is about to end. This way I have enough time to beat match.
I just release the 8 beat loop at the proper time and mix into the Incoming Track nice and slow.
This method helped me a lot...
Every dj's worst nightmare:
Getting off beat and having it be totally noticeable and everyone staring at you like u have 5 heads.
Played a show last night and accidentally hit the hotcue on the song that was playing instead of the next track. Went back to the start of the verse instead of drop, literally no one noticed
alex rose literally laughed out loud lmao
they noticed.
they were prob just a humble crowd
They noticed your career is over
That happend to me once jaja
You should have a DJ setup at home as well. Even if you play in clubs every weekend there is always room to improve your DJ game. I DJ a lot at nightclubs but I still have a set-up at home, and although I don't use it quite as much as before I started playing in clubs it's still really useful for practice and also a lot of fun especially if you have a party at home.
Don't say sorry. Shot your hands up and start clapping, whilst seriously laughing at your self. Rescues it every time.
that's also a good one
All amazing tips. I wish I had UA-cam when I started 23 years ago.
I wish I started few years back
Love the vid; I never say sorry no matter how hard I trainwreck.
can tell you have a lot of experience! thank you for sharing!
Really really great informtion and video brother -- absolutely love it and appreciate it!!!! THANK YOU
Dope tips, bro!!! You gave me at least 3-5 pure gems that I did not think about prior to this video. GREAT INFO!!! LOVE IT!!!
Hi Jon. Thank you for making this video. 'Hope we can have more videos about CDJs. More power to you!
Really nice vid! Great tips and even pretty good production value! Very authentic as well.
Good stuff! I'm hoping to start playing shows this year, so this is all good to know and learn.
Absolutely agree with every tip on here haha. Have fallen for all of these pitfalls at some stage over the years so it's a good list to watch out for!
Great video maaan.
Hello from Greece.
Very GOOD advices man!!! Especially that one with the dj table high... which is so under estimated!!!
I love how forward and to the point you are. Great videos
Really good video mate, good beginner stuff. Top work!
Really good advice, I'd love to see more videos like this.
Thank you so much. This video was awesome to watch. 🥇🥇🥇🤙🤙💯 very useful tips.
Only 5 minutes in and honestly, this deserves waaaaay more views... Great vid!
Thanks Mate amazing tips
Amazing tips! My friend DJ Omari from Disc Jockey Boston suggested me all these tips that are mentioned in this video. To be an expert in anything, there is a need for special skills. Learn and experiments with those special skills are the key point.
I remember having listen to the music on the mainfloor because the monitor speaker stopped working. Just keep playing through ~ Corey Miller
Great video man! Subbed instantly.
Very useful Video Jon! You got my like and abo :-) keep on like this
Thank you for sharing your experience... Nice tips 👏🏼
My dj tip: if you have to make jog adjustments on track that is playing on PA, make sure you do it on track that is not containing some kind of long pads. It is far more noticeable when you shift song with those sounds.
Thank you very much!
I think that 'not buying high end equipment" was the most useful, I now think that investing in production is much better at the early stages after mastering the basics of this art.
So down to earth, love you bro, for such honest tips
A good tip is to match the volume levels of the two tracks in the headphones so that when you mix the next track it is around the same volume, slightly louder can be good if you reduce the volume after the initial impact. Then use the bass mid and treble all of the time to listen to the sound in the room and try to make each track sound nice in the room on that particular system. If you wanted to get a really good sound you could even add a parametric eq.
Otherwise it can be worth it having a good sound guy who will regulate the sound all through the night. As if he was mixing for a band.
Some good tips great video!
Nice, upfront and honest advice Mr Sine, cheers!
Awesome man! Keep it up!
Amazing tips, I am a beginner dj from Kenya. The tips are very helpful.
Greetings to Kenya :)
One of the better videos I've watched on youtube. thank you
Thank you for this! Just hopped on cdjs at my local club last month and this should help awesomely!

Great Tips! Thank You
Thanks I like your videos
very good tips dude well done !!! 🙌🏻
A lot of good tips there, thanks
I’m a new subscriber Your channel helps me a lot thanks for your dj tips. Cause every dj i see they make pressing stuff useless now i see on your channel you teach the right way the right timing right position without using or pressing things i learn that you have to be focus of what track of music you play and keep the music playing and be relax sometimes when i’m on gig i always getting nervous specially those crowds i learn that you have to keep relax enjoy your playing your track and always be alert 🚨 cause i i missed 1 track t totally ruin all my playlist track donno what to do next i learn that if you don’t fo mistakes your not a real dj. thnks your channel helps me a lot sir ☺️🙏🏻
Tip 21.
Keep your cables tidy and sorted, If your Power & Audio cables mix they will mess with your audio and it also makes packing up Easyer
This also helps when your setting up as there sorted and tidy and you don't need to untangle them.
Here another tipp for all controller DJs who DJ with a controller and a DJ Software at home: If you go to a club or any other gig where they have the CDJs, you can take your laptop with you and conect it to the CDJs and the mixer using USB and then use them in "HID mode". So you can use these CDJ/DJM setup as a controller for the software you are used to. And also you have got all of the music on your laptop which you can then play with the CDJs.
Und natürlich wieder mal super Video Jon! Diese Tipps sind sicherlich hilfreich für JEDEN DJ!
Some good new stuff thanx
dang that was super helpful! thanks
i enjoyed this video, congratulations
good video man, you say everything I learned on dj course in 15 minutes kkkk great work

You are helping me so much plz dont stop
Nice tips, bro! I've started to play two months ago and your video definitely helped me! Peace, Jah blesss
This is an awesome video, and I'm subbing for it
Welcome to the channel
Thanks for the tips
That helped me a lot man, thanks.
Loved the vlog...tell about rekordbox software coz with Pioneer is the best...!!!
Amazing !!
I agree with most of the tips. but I really love to own my equipment. It makes me feel a real DJ....not saying that if you rent you are not, but its just a feeling, thanks
thanks for the tips :D
Good advice I am new and have had some issues because I didn’t know this
very good tips .....
Good info. Bro. On the last tip I have a couple 3 song mixes I use for that same purpose.
great advice... cheers
Great video
top one bro!
9:33 forgot my adapter at the first event I ever mixed. Trying to beat match with the monitor going about 20% then dropping the bass when I move it up to 100. It was a huge whoops, but luckily, it ended well :) Good video, very insightful.
Thanks 😊
great video,
nice tips
love your channel bro. thanks for putting out this very valuable content. Starting off as a complete novice how do you feel about Pioneer Controller like the DDJ-RB vs picking up the XDJ-700's to start off?
the just announced (or maybe it was released?) DDJ-400 would be an inexpensive way to go --AND-- the -400 is designed to be very similar in workflow to the Pioneer CDJ setups. you can learn how to DJ, how to use Rekordbox and do it on a setup that is very close to what you'd find in a club.
to my way of thinking going the XDJ route is kind of self-defeating. you eliminate the laptop but still have to have one to prep music on??? and boy are the XDJs expensive.
you say you are a complete novice? save the cash, buy a DDJ-400 and invest the money you save over an XDJ unit in good music and work on your skills. at some later point you will want to buy something else anyway and might as well save some cash up front while learning...
Fanatic vlog Jon. I am not a dj but enjoyed it
We love you man
Always have your own gear, preferably the one you prefer to use. As a full time DJ I play 170-180 days/year. Around 40 of those are gigs where I'm required to bring my own gear and in one year, for the extra I charge, those gigs pay for a NXS2 setup, that will last for several years to come. I can charge half of what the renting company's do, and after a year when the gear is paid, that extra adds to my income instead. Don't miss that opportunity of extra income, or let the rentals have it. I always have a setup available so I can make promotional recordings or just have a go when I want to. If you need to unpack and setup your gear, not to mention rent it, the chance are slim that you will ever use any gear outside the club. Not too funny getting there discovering that your updated usb-device doesn't work. That should always be tested before leaving for the club. If you're several hours away from home and don't have access to your computer, your night just became a nightmare. All depends on your unique situation, but for me who travels a lot and play in very different venues and also do gigs lasting a week or more on huge party cruisers, coming home, resetting and prepare for the next round of gigs would not be possible without my own gear.
extremely good tip thank you
really good tips-regarding the pee track-I always choose the extended mix version of a big track-you have that with 80's songs in particular like Voyage Voyage by Desireless or Blue Monday by New Order,
Love these dj tuts! Keep it up :)
good tips bro @dj youngrich from kenya
Today we have the DDJ1000 that is really close to a full NXS setup for a fraction of the price... the cost is around 50% of a single CDJ and allows you to practice/bring the kit to parties/club and for me the weight of the equipment (6kg) is another awesome point... i am enjoying a lot the kit and between the DDJ 1000 and XDJ XZ i will still keep the DDJ 1000... the XDJ is BETTER in effects but for me portability and weight is more important

My audience calls me DJ Trainwreck.
Hey jon, usually i change the track with the drop, when it comes the drop, i change the track, do you think that is good?
using sync for matching the BPM perfectly and then beat match by ear.
Hey man, been watching your videos, what equipment do you recommend to start learning? Will a budget controller do?
Which controller/mixer is good to use for beginners?
Thanks dear thanks
13:38, in your friend's studio I noticed VPR bass traps, no?, those type of bass trapping I use extensively in my studio; they really perform great, especially if you have full range monitoring, where bass is huge (I run PMC IB1, those are bad boys for bass freq:)
Great tips matee
Do you mix vinyl too👍
Sehr gute Tipps! Direkt mal abonniert 😁 ich habe mir zum üben nen Traktor s2 zugelegt weil ich ein großer native Instruments Fan bin. wäre Pioneer die bessere wahl gewesen weil alle Pioneer benutzen?
hey danke! zum üben geht alles solltest dann auch im club schnell mit pioneer klar kommen
Später vielleicht Nachdem man sich sicher ist das man es länger machen möchte. Für mich ist Standalone Hardware immer besser.
Ich brauche meinen eigenen Kontroller. Gibt nichts mühsameres, als wenn an den vorhandenen Decks was nicht stimmt. Z.B. nicht synchron laufen, was ich auch schon erlebt habe.
i like the way you explain your dj experience !!!! dj roby
danke für den tip bei 1:49
einer der gründe wieso ich tierische angst vor einem auftritt habe :D
Das wird besser je öfters dus machst ;) Hattest du schon ein paar Gigs?
@@robinpfeiffer3814 Genau, nach ein paar Malen verschwindet das Lampenfieber :-)
Hey Jon, I have to Dj a birthday party soon and I was wondering in your opinion, should I take song requests or stick to the list they gave me?
'pee' track/song was my fav tip!:) I know what it is when you go to toilet and there is a long queue and you have only few minutes to get back behind the desk...
most time toilet is line up .ha ha ha
3:15 I usually tap next to the play button then tap play on the beat. I'm always synced up anyway so it's pretty much just a little flick of the jog wheel from there.
Hey, I am using vestax and serato to train since 1 year. Used it couple of times on Bday parties. Want to buy some intermediate equipment to perfect my beatmatching and get ready to my first future gig. What kind of pioneer hardware do you suggest? I need 2 CDJs and 1 Mixer. It shouldnt destroy my wallet tho. Maybe around 2k in total?
