How to... Perform Live/DJ

02ÌýThe Basics
A mix tape doesn't have to be a tape it can be a CD as well, it's just what deejays call their demo.

How to... Make a killer mix tape
Make your mix tape last somewhere between 45 minutes and the full 74 you can fit on a CD.

Remember, it's your chance to show people how hevvy you are on the tables that turn!

It's important not to blatantly copy other deejays' selection and mixes.

Obviously certain tunes go well together and if a tune's smashin' it, you should play it but try to think of a fresh angle.

Hunt down those exclusives and make a point of knowing who the up and coming talent is in your scene.

It's worth doing because if you can get a dubplate from a hot new artist with your name in it that can make all the difference.

A lot of promoters' big complaint is that the mix tapes they receive are too similar to name-brand deejays sets they already hire.
