Now is the time Night Club/Radio managers, watch DJ's mix's

0:00 Now then, just want to read you an email I had from someone

Alright folks, now then, just want to read you an email I had from someone. Hi Jonathan, you must be getting millions of emails by now, you're a big star. Well I hope this reaches you then. First I'd like to say how your videos have been invaluable to my learning of the craft and you should be very proud of the impact you've made on the world mate. Cool. My name is Something Beck and I'm a house DJ starting out. I live in Sydney, Australia and I want to try... Find work as a DJ. I've recorded some of my work and put it on Myspace. If you could find 30 minutes to spare, I would really, really appreciate some feedback on what you think of my site, mixing, etc. I wanted to make a 10-minute vid for you but have yet to source the camera. My plan is to burn like 50 CDs of the stuff on Myspace with a nice design and mail it to loads of clubs in the city.

0:59 You don't need to anymore, do you?

Just like you suggested. If you could give me some extra guidance in how to get a gig, it would be immensely wicked and cool. Thanks again. As usual, practice and enjoy. Peace. Now then, when I did a video a while ago and I explained to you that you should get a CD, a CV, etc., post it to nightclubs. Well... You don't need to anymore, do you? Not really, not at all. If you remember, I actually said on a video that when you're doing these 10 minute mixes, I know some people it's going to be awkward, but when you're doing these 10 minute mixes, let's see you, okay? Let's try and get a picture of you as well. Well, that is your CV, okay? Maybe you may not have worked in many places, but any nightclub manager out there will see talent straight away,

2:20 By the way, this isn't the big thing, okay?

In a millisecond, alright? Yes, the mixing plays a part. The music plays a part. Because at the end of the day, a DJ, sorry, a manager in a nightclub is not going to employ a turntablist in a house nightclub. They're not going to employ someone who plays top 40 material in a hip-hop club, are they? Exactly, okay? So this is it. Think about it logically, okay? This is so logical. You do your mix. By the way, this isn't the big thing, okay? But this is just... This is a big thing as well, but I can say this to you now, alright? Think about it logically, alright? You do your mix. You get a good mix. Do it professional. I mean, the thing is, is that try and practice your mix first. Get it good, alright? Get it nice. Get it well constructed, alright? Do that mix. Show yourself, alright? You don't have to go, hello, I'm so-and-so and I... Just...

You look good, alright? Smile in front of the camera occasionally. Not a cheesy one, just come over as though you're happy, you're enjoying yourself. The nightclub owners, the radio presenters, if you want to use the microphone, want to see you, okay? As well as listen to the music. And if you can put yourself over correctly and professionally, then I'll tell you what... There will be nightclub owners knocking at your door, okay? Because as soon as word starts to get out, they will be looking for new talent. And I hope the new talent is you. Practice and enjoy.
