What do all of the famous DJs and big clubs have in common? Each of them has worked hard to establish themselves as an authority or to become, at the very least, a major influencer in the particular niche they’re entertaining.
DJ credentials don’t need to be complicated… more often than not, our minds are overwhelming us with the sheer complexity of all the things we need to do, instead of starting step by step.
Whether you mix analog or delve into the very latest of digital DJing, a logo or trademark DJ text may seem cliche, but everyone has one because of the exclusive sense that is sent out to the existing and future public… this sense of attraction that the DJ creates, depends on how dedicated this person is willing to be in order to repeatedly provide a certain degree of uniqueness with each performance or livestream.
A level of expertise will also be associated with the DJ who makes sure that his or her followers always get new content with the same grade of performance that make up a DJ’s trademark sound and video signature.
The freshly released 1.4 version of future.dj pro already raised our DJs into a frenzy because of the simply way in which you can create advanced video overlays. Images, text and videos can be easily edited and adapted to achieve the desired effect… the video output can be easily extended to any projector, TV or any other secondary screen and there’s nothing stopping you from making your DJ broadcast look like anything from an alien invasion to a live news report.
Provided that each mix retains the subtle yet distinct musical print that sets your sound apart from those that merely play or curate music, the DJ will be perceived as a reliable musical entity.
By coupling this newly added powerful tool with original ideas and your own DJ mixing style and taste, broadcasting your own DJ TV show, even by yourself, is not as far-fetched as it may have been in the past. Now, as a new and sometimes struggling DJ, it’s best to find the proper tools that allow you to have your own take on the sounds you send out.
