0:00 That in a minute, into three

Alright folks, class this as vlog number 12 if you want it, but talk a little bit really about DJTutor.com and our new people on board, which of course is Rick Remix, Big Milan and Brian S Redd. Now then, what we're going to be doing is splitting these people up and more, I'll explain that in a minute, into three sections. One section is going to be tutors like myself, the other one... The DJ Tutor is going to be bedroom DJs, and then the other one is going to be club DJs. Now then, at the moment, Big Milan really, we don't know whether to put him in the tutor section or the bedroom DJ section because the guy's doing a bit of both really. But then, the likes of Brian S. Redd, he'll be a tutor simply because he is teaching people out there like myself.

1:56 A young lady called the Subliminal Kit

We're going to put him in the club section because he used to be a club DJ, he still does occasional working clubs and I can promise you this, as soon as his daughter is in school etc. then he has more time for himself, he's going to be back on top. But at the moment the guy is still there, he's still working hard and he's on the ball. So big shout out to you Remix. DJ tutorial by Ellaskins, The DJ Tutor. the crossfader and loopers. A young lady called the Subliminal Kit. Now then, we're going to class her as a bedroom DJ. Now this girl, just there's a spark about her. She's fun, she's exciting, she's new, she's enthusiastic and the reason I'm giving her a page on DJTutor.com is because there's something about it that I hope will inspire other lady DJs which is what we need.

DJing isn't just a bloke thing, alright? It's not. It's not at all. It's not a bloke thing. At the end of the day, music is universal. If you hear music through these guys here, then I don't care if you're a 70-year-old lady in a wheelchair, there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to appreciate music and maybe do a bit of DJing. And then also, there's a young lad called Alex Hain. Hayden. I'll spell his out for you. It's A-L-E-X-H-A-N-D-Y-E. Now then, this guy, he made me think. I thought, I like this guy. He emailed me a while ago saying, look, I'm totally new. I've never DJed in my life. I wouldn't know one turntable from the next. Can you help me buy some gear? Because he wants to buy some gear because he's possibly been inspired by my videos and by other DJs, etc.

3:46 I'm still looking for a load more club DJs as well, okay?

But there was something about the guy, there was something that I looked and I thought, yeah, I like this guy. The guy has got something. So what I've asked him to do is I've asked him to play a part in ddatutor.com simply because I want other people in his position to look at this guy, to look at him and think, yeah, I can familiarise myself with this young lad. And I've asked him that, you know, when he gets his turntables and his mixer etc. to make a video of him opening the boxes, to make a video of him plugging them in for the first time, doing his first mix, to show it how it is, how real this is, because this guy is new, just the same as people watching this video now who may be inspired by this guy, watching him.

There are other people I've got in mind as well, so there's plenty more avenue, plenty more scope. I'm still looking for a load more club DJs as well, okay? Because we want lots of input, alright? Again, it's like I said, I mean, I will always play a part in DJTutor.com, I'll always be bunging videos out there, but I only know a certain amount. What we need to do, we need to get a nucleus, we need to get a pool of people, professional and unprofessional, who can share their experiences and share their knowledge to everyone else, okay? This is what it's all about. Thank you for watching and please, as always, practice and enjoy. And this is another one of my cats. This is Buggalugs. At least a cute cat, aren't you babes? You watch that. He'll just lie there now. You're going to go to sleep.
