Advanced DJ Learning Pathway
This learning pathway will help Advanced DJs navigate our courses and find the best learning pathway to suit their needs.
We consider advanced DJs to be those with solid foundational skills in mixing, set building, fundamental scratching.
Where to start?
We recommend browsing over the Basic Scratching course to ensure that you do cover the scratching bases in terms of skills, technique and undoing any bad habits that self-taught DJs may have encountered.
We assume that an advanced DJ is set on mixing by ear, dropping on beat, set arrangement and hand alignment and mechanics.
What course should I begin with?
