Do you have a soft spot for electronic music and have always wondered what exactly happens in the DJ booth? All those buttons, knobs, and flashing lights – and how do they all come together to create the perfect transition? Then this workshop with DJ BiMän in Berlin is just right for you!
In this compact, hands-on workshop, you'll get a comprehensive introduction to the world of DJing – no prior knowledge required. After a quick get-to-know-you session, you'll head straight to the DJ booth, where a professional setup awaits you: You'll work on Pioneer CDJ 2000 Nexus players and a DJM 900 mixer – the same equipment used in clubs around the world. High-quality headsets will also be provided. You don't need to bring anything with you – not even your own music – I've got everything ready.
In the workshop, you'll learn the theoretical basics: How are electronic tracks structured? What do BPM and key mean – and why are they important for good transitions? Step by step, I'll show you how to select, analyse, and combine songs. The goal is to be able to beatmatch independently and create your own transitions – while developing a feel for flow, rhythm, and timing.
A special extra: While you're at the decks, photos will be taken of you – so at the end, you'll not only have new skills, but also your first professional DJ photos!
Whether you're just curious, have always wanted to try your hand at the decks, or dream of DJing yourself – here you'll learn all the basics in a relaxed atmosphere so you can get started right away.
The workshop takes place in a real club setting in Berlin – right where electronic music is at home. Look forward to hands-on learning, individual tips, great music, and lots of fun.
Just vibes & curiosity – let's go!
