r/djing

Hi all, /r/vjing mod here:

I'm trying something new to spur some creative collaborations across reddit music production subs and visual art / creative coding / new media subreddits.

Now that Reddit supports video comments / replies, I thought it could be a fun opportunity to a collaboration call / response format.

The idea:

Musicians, dj's, producers or anyone musically inclined: post a link to a track or mix that you have rights to and are open to having visual accompaniment to.

VJs / live visualists / creative coders: post a response to a track that inspired you with a video comment, or link to an interactive experiment you made!

If you are an AV Act that makes your own music or video, feel free to post here too for inspiration.

All genre's, styles, techniques, skill levels are welcome.

This isnt a contest!

There's nothing to win (unless anyone knows sponsors haha) other than learning of new musical or visual act, meeting a potential collaborator and making awesome stuff and having a good time:

Stay curious and creative!

Below are some subs I'll be cross posting / sharing this with - feel free to cross post to any i've missed:

Music Subs:

• /r/Songwriting/
• /r/djing/
• /r/musicproduction
• /r/edmproduction/
• /r/beatmakers/
• /r/shareyourmusic

Visual Subs:

• /r/vjing
• /r/creativecoding/
• /r/videosynthesis/
• /r/TouchDesigner/
• /r/maxmsp/
• /r/video_mapping/

Mod's of any of the above subs - sorry if this comes across as spammy!

I thought about asking permission from each of ya'll but that felt onerous and slow (ask forgiveness etc etc). If you have suggestions or any feedback do not hesitate to reach out! Was thinking of something like this monthly pinned on /r/vjing where i have video comments enabled - would love if yall could help spread the word!

Looking for a dj for any socials, house parties or any type of party hmu. Djing since last 5 years.
Dm for more details.

Hi - I’m making a 1-hour, ‘kid friendly’ (aka no cursing, bad behavior promoted, etc) DJ mix. This will be played at an outdoor event. I want every generation to hear a song, sound or lyrics they recognize. So I’m pulling hits from the 50s-2010s.

When I look up recognizable songs for Gen alpha, I get coco melon or imagine dragons. Idk if they would think it’s cringe if I mix in ‘sixseven’ audio clips.

What music do they listen to? What sound or song would they dance to at a party? I want every opinion!

Hey everyone! I recently got a DDJ FLX4 as my first DJ controller and I'm super excited to start my DJ journey. This is my first ever experience with DJing and I'd love some guidance on how to progress.

I mainly want to play Afro-House beats and Hiphop — would anyone be willing to give me some tips and advice on:
\- How to get started and build a solid foundation
\- How to develop my mixing skills for specific genres
\- Any recommendations on where to go from here

Is there anyone here who could guide me or point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🎧

My friend has learned the DJ and is now looking for a gig in Hyderabad any cafe/ restaurant who is willing to work as per your guidelines and customer happiness for free of cost and have own dj equipment. If any cafe owners/ restaurant owner interested reach out me.

I’m 16m living in Belfast I’ve been using flx 4s for around six months now but I don’t know I just feel stuck I’ve been watching YouTube tutorials and stuff, but I don’t feel like I’m getting anywhere all I really know right now is phrasing, beatmatching and a handful of simple transitions any advice is appreciated

Edit: thank you all who replied seriously, I’ve been dying to make progress with music for a while now and I’m starting to feel like things are going in my favour now, anyway thanks again for all the advice it means a lot to me

Genre - Bolly/punjabi/house/afro/techno
