How To DJ

0

From club to radio and every other music DJ in between; Chris warms up his guests before asking them to pick a set of 5 questions from a box of 45. There are anecdotes aplenty, essential do's & don'ts, as well as gear recommendations, PLUS there's always an apocalyptic set closer too!

    How to DJ podcast
    I’ve listened to Chris Hawkins on BBC6MUSIC for about 7 or 8 years now. Love his show and his passion is unequal. I usually listen on Sounds the next morning given that his show is live from midnight to 2:30am on the US east coast where I live. A recent project of his is a podcast wherein he interviews his piers on ‘how to DJ’. Very insightful. I did a couple of guest shows on a community radio station in Chester two years ago and the prep time for me was enormous. I have a lot of admiration especially for those who have a daily show. Of course, one cannot rave about this podcast without a shoutout for producer Simon Ritchie.
