    Re: any openings

    Sorry, but first, I'd say get a clue.

    I know DJs that are a hell of a lot better than 'good', that still aren't 'big' at all.
    Takes a hell of a lot of hard work, persistency and time.

    One thing I would recommend is putting your own night on. Does get your name out there a bit, and can be a big help.
    Otherwise, a lot of stuff is through who you know, not how good you are. Try talking to DJs n stuff when you go out, can help a lot :)
    As well as sending mixes to promoters (quarterly or montly), try sending 'em to some DJs too, feedback can be helpful.

    Good luck :)

    Or produce some good stuff, get it signed and make your name that way. You'll always get djing work of the back of the production.

    Do it for the love not the fame

    Sometimes its not what u know its who u know !

    I would say that i am a good few years off becoming a DJ and have only recently done a Minidisc for me g/f which ill openly admit that i lost a few mixes on it - practise makes perfect really and with me chopping and changing my decks alot in the last 1 1/2 then i have had to get used to them !

    With my setup now im more than happy so can only get better which hopefully i will - if i do become a DJ one day then fair enough but if not its still gonna be my hobbie !

    :D :D

    One way of getting your name around is by posting regularly on this board! Worked for others.
