So here are 5 easy steps you need to keep in mind before choosing to join a DJ School or a school that teaches Music Production.
#1 Faculty
It is very important to know who will be teaching you Music Production or Pro DJ Course. Make sure to know that the faculty is still working behind the deck or making music that releases. This will always give you a fresh perspective from the faculty from their live gig experience. This way the faculty will also be updated with their music and the latest technologies in the music industry. DJing & Music Production is knowledge for sure, but knowledge without experience is no good. You can speak with our faculty directly on our Facebook or Instagram handle.
#2 Course Curriculum
Your music school should have a proper curriculum that takes you from the basic to an advance level, step-by-stem in an easy & understandable manner. One topic missing or not in the right place might lead to a lack of interest in students. So make sure that you are advised about the curriculum and process that will cover basic & advance skills to help you build a strong foundation through your DJ & Music Production training.
#3 Equipment & Software
If you gotta be the best, you need to train on the best as well. Your choice of music school should have the latest equipment and technology to impart in you the knowledge & experience that will help you stay ahead from others. Your music school should be equipped with updated CDJ players, Turntables and DJ controller to give you the skills you need to perform professionally in front of a small or a big crowd with your choice of equipment.

If you do not get a chance to be behind the deck in front of a crowd, then what’s the point of learning the skill. Is your music school, promoting you anywhere? Are you getting a chance to perform somewhere? Do you get club connections? If No, then you have missed on a lot. Your music school should be able to help you with gigs or set you up as a resident DJ to get on the job experience. Look for an Alumni Network of your DJ School. A good Alumni Network will help you create your own network, keep you updated with the latest industry news, helps you share music and get you gigs in your locality.
