DJ-Workshop
At both festivals and in individual lessons, I offer guidance for new DJs and dancers interested in learning how to DJ - but also offer exchange for DJs who have been in this role for several years and look for new tricks to make dancers really happy. Topics might be
- Equipment: which laptop, which software, how to organize files
- Sources for music
- Styles of tango, composers and orchestras, choice of music
- How to optimize sound and how to cut pieces
- How to build tandas
- Switching between traditional and alternative
- How to react to what happens on the floor
Of course you'll receive ample theoretical material to read through on your own, but most importantly, we will conduct exercises during the workshop, such astesting different DJ software, cutting pieces, equalizing and planning a playlist for a milonga.
