DJing Fundamentals with Boom Boom Bean Selecta
Event description
A workshop for any cats who fancy having a go at learning how to DJ, Boom Boom Bean Selecta is leading an introductory session to cover everything you need to know to get started. Expect detail, depth and a passion for musicality. This is your chance to learn about the basics of musical structure, selection and beat matching from a pro. You’ll get to have fun play on a large club setup as well as an all in one DJ system and a laptop and controller setup.
This workshop will also be useful for DJs who might have missed out on the basics like gain staging, red-lining and mixing with musical structure.
