Beginner’s Guide to DJing eBook

I’m stoked to release the first edition of my Beginner’s Guide to DJing eBook! I’ve been putting this together over the past year and a half so I’m really happy to have it available and I hope it brings a lot of value to those starting out on their DJ journey.

I’m giving away 100 copies of the eBook for free to celebrate the launch. Just enter the code ‘KAIYOFREE’ at checkout to grab it for free. After these are gone, it will be available for a small fee of £5. It will remain free to access for any of my students who have taken a lesson with me. Anyone grabbing a copy of the eBook will have lifetime access to any future updates.

The eBook was designed to be a portable reference guide that’s easily accessible wherever you are. It contains 105 pages of content explaining the core concepts and techniques behind DJing.

The first edition covers general info on DJ equipment setup and where to find and download music, as well as having a dedicated drum & bass chapter covering the following areas:

  • Track Structure

  • Beatmatching

  • Mixing

  • Harmonic Mixing

  • Preparing Sets

  • Creative Mixing

  • Looping

  • FX

  • Recording Mixes

Although this edition is tailored towards drum & bass, the majority of concepts can be applied across all electronic music genres.

The next step for me is turning the content into an online DJ course and other free DJ tutorials to provide a more visual resource as I know how helpful video content can be for learning to DJ. Stay tuned for news on that, but for now, I hope you enjoy the eBook!
