DJ Rob Swift Workshop Archives

DJ Rob Swift Workshops is a hub for academic teaching events and lectures that he has hosted. These talks are done in collaboration with other organizations broaching topics that Rob teaches in his courses on the Brolic Army DJ School.

“It’s important to absorb multiple perspectives on the material taught on DJing. From techniques, to history, to making a career of DJing or just expanding your skill and mindset. The more you listen to and absorb, the more well-rounded DJ you will become, carrying the torch into your work, and the next generation.” – DJ Rob Swift

At the Brolic Army we strive to give our soldiers the most in-depth and holistic education on DJing. To achieve our goal, we use a wide range of teaching techniques from Lectures, to specific tutorials to guest teachers.
