About this class
Curious about DJing and ready to try it yourself?
The teaching happens live from behind the DJ decks. You can follow from your seat or gather around and watch up close. CZECH STRINGS demonstrates everything on electronic music, but can switch to any other genre on request. The techniques taught apply to all rhythmic music.
Details to remember
What to bring to the class
If you'd like to bring your own music on a USB stick, you're welcome to, but it will only work if the stick is formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) / FAT32 and the tracks have been analysed in Rekordbox beforehand.

The session starts with the essentials: what a DJ actually does, what their role is, and how it all comes together. From there, CZECH STRINGS explains the gear using the decks available at the spot as a live example, applicable to any DJ setup you might encounter in the future.
