    what equipment do you have?
    what kind of music do you like to play?
    I have an S4 and two PAs I have gotten from playing in my band throughout the years

    I love electronic music but i just got into it, I'm not very familiar with the different names but I listen to Daft Punk, Deadmau5, The Glitch Mob, Xaphoon Jones, Pretty Lights, Girl Talk and Super Mash Bros

    Yes im defiantly about the practicing, I'm also going to stay very connected to the community because along with great ideas its a place that supports new DJ's

    im in franklin (exit 16 on 495) and do gigs around here pretty regularly.

    join the FB chatroom.. that should help you a bunch with random questions.

    feel free to hit me up too if you need anything

    only advice would be dont use itunes anymore, and mix your music while you listen to it... thats how i learned how to do everything i know (plus hours of watching mixes on youtube and emulating different techniques)

    1. find the records you think should be mixed together
    2. buy them in which ever format suits you and your immediate skills
    3. try to mix them together (refine your search and purchasing accordingly)
    4. learn to use FX if you want to get stupid with it
    5. mix those records together
    6. repeat until the needle hits the paper

    That, was a very good start.

    I'd be happy to help if there's anyway I can.

    I sent a request for the facebook group, it's this kind of friendliness that I want to be a part of. Hopefully someday I can pass it along.
