Alright folks, what we're looking for is we're looking for DJs to compile a little mix and then we're going to bung it on DJTutor.com. This is what I would like you to do. Logically you've got to have a camcorder and be able to upload it onto YouTube. Okay, give us your name, your age if you want to and where you're from. Not a basic house number, just if you live in Wales, fine. If you live in England, fine. If you live in China, fine, no worries. That's all. And then what I want you to do is... Tell us the sort of music you're going to be playing. House, soul, hip-hop, R&B, reggae, techno, trance, electro, gabber, drum and bass, doesn't matter, OK? Then what I'd like to do is just pan through, use a camcorder and just pan through all your gear so everyone out there can see if you're using PC, turntables, mix models. People like to see what mixer you're using, all that sort of stuff. Even show your PA and that kind of thing.

Then, which is very important to track listing, we would like to know the songs you're playing. So just give us the song title and the artist. Then do a mix. Ideally the mix three to four minutes, maybe less, maybe more if you want to. It doesn't really matter, but try and make sure you've got a mix in there, OK? And then at the end of it, say practice and enjoy because it's pretty cool. Now for everyone who has already done that, filled in a form and sent the mix in, all I can ask you now, if possible please, is just to email me... With the track listings and also I'd like to know, yes or no, do you mind if we give your username up on DJTutor.com? Basically put your username up on there. Right, this is what's going to happen. This week all the people who have actually already submitted the mixes, they will be put on a separate page on www.DJTutor.com.
Okay, everyone who would like to submit a mix, what you have to do is stick to that format I've explained. Okay, put your mix on YouTube, then go to www.djtutor.com, go to the DJ mixes page, fill in the information there. It'll basically, it's quite self-explanatory and then we will have that. And what we will do, we will then go to your mix that you put on YouTube and have a link straight to djtutor.com. Now then, why are we doing this? Well, at the end of the day, there are thousands of DJs with thousands of mixes on YouTube and it's quite often very difficult to choose and to find them. Now then, look at it from this point of view. With all your mixes on DJTutor.com, it means that they're all together and people can click on the thumbnail on DJTutor.com, they can look at your video on YouTube and they can just...

Press backspace, go straight back and look at the next video. So it's back forwards, back forwards. So there's more chance of people actually seeing you. Plus the fact, isn't it a nice idea to think you're possibly not the only person... In the world, who uses Technics turntables with a Vestac mixer who likes to play hip-hop? Because there's probably a load of other people out there. So once you realise there's two or three people using the same equipment as you, then you can start to exchange comments. Likewise, maybe there is someone halfway around the world using exactly the same PC program as you and they like soul. So there you go, you've got a buddy straight away. Likewise with CDs or anything, OK?
Initially, we will have all of the DJ mixes on one page. As we start getting more, then we will format them into a section of house, a section of hip-hop, a section of R&B, a section of techno. Then when we start getting more again, we will have techno on turntables, techno on PC, techno on CD. We'll have hardcore, etc., etc., as follows. And then we may even have to go one step further if we get more, and we will end up having them in countries. So the possibilities are endless. So this is all you've got to do. Do your mix. Once you've done your mix, put it on YouTube. Go to www.djtutor.com, click on the DJ mix selection, and then fill in all the relevant information. Then we will get in touch and we will put your mix...
On to DJTutor.com. My goodness, I'm now going to stop talking. Thank you and practice and enjoy. Bye bye.
