It is amazing just how many things fall into the 3rd category until you reach mastery level in a skill, more specifically, the proportion of things in the first vs second categories once you're at that point. It is too difficult to understand the overarching concepts as a beginner to even grasp the mastery-level concepts.
Sadly, this is probably even not a mastery-level concept... but just keep moving things from the bottom of the list to the top and you'll get there some day ♪♫♪
those are some really wise words, you guys are making me even more excited then i already was to get deeper and deeper into the theory of DJing but this guy has to go to sleep :p do you guys know if there are any books about basicly everything u need to know about DJ/Music theory?
That would be a huge book considering some DJs do any of the following things which all require a different subset of skills:Quote:

Any of those could be their own book, or series of books. Additionally, there is the broader topic of music theory.
WAY too much for one book. You're trying to figure out what is in that 3rd category all at once ;)
Start off with smaller, easy topics and research them yourself. The Internet is a wonderful thing.
Haha alright thanks :) i think that as i move on i will discover things i didnt know and learn them and so on glad im still young :p
