I’ve always found it difficult to put into words exactly what it is electronic dance music DJs are doing and how exactly to do it. From the terminology to figuring out where to start. When doing research for a previous Disc Jockey News Show I came across these 3 perfectly explained videos from a few different business professionals.

DJ TML has a wonderfully, helpful channel for DJs and lays out the beats, bars and phrases right here.
Step 2 – Beat matching and mixing by ear
Christian Jackson did a simplified video of how to DJ by ear that I think you’ll really enjoy.
Step 3 – Eqing
