3. Get out there…

When you have covered the above tasks as a DJ, you should “get out”. What I mean by this is that you need to record a DJ set and paste it onto tape, CD or whatever platform you want to use. The reason for this is that you now have a product where you can promote your crowd/audience or a Radio DJ or Club Promoter. These are the contacts you need to aim and hunt, so to speak.

For example, if you play Hip-hop music, then you need to go to the hip-hop clubs in your area and “give away” free CDs to the promoters of the club, punters who are in the club, etc… not everyone. he’ll hear your mix, but if you’re persistent, which you have to be… your luck will kick in and at some point you’ll have a chance to play to a crowd.
