I got asked to open for Ms. Lauryn Hill’s shows in Alberta this week.
My DJ setup was behind the curtain. I couldn’t see the crowd, so I vibed with whoever was back there.
Thanks to my guy for dropping a little gem on me: “You gotta imagine the crowd.”
I’ve been teaching DJs for over a decade now and yes, I’m still at it.
With new students we always start with one of the most fundamental concepts: how to find the 1.
I’m opening up two more teaching spots for December - DM me if you want in.

You can’t fight your crowd.
When you try to force your sets, you lose them.
DJing is a relationship: not a performance AT the crowd but with the crowd.
I’ve had to learn this lesson the hard way many times.
