Who is this online course for?
This course is aimed at anyone who likes music and is interested in creating musical sets, either to share them on social media or to liven up a meeting or party with friends. From the party to your professional debut, you decide where to stop!
Requirements and materials
You need passion for music and little else. The musical concepts shared in this course are very basic, so anyone can quickly understand the technical base.
The practice is divided into two options: In the first, Alex teaches you to mix with a computer, where he also advises adding a controller and/or audio card. With the second option, you can learn to play from a tablet (in this case iPad).
The software chosen for the course is Traktor DJ for PC and Djay 2 for iPad. Once you have learned the basics, you will have no problem adapting to other similar software.
Reviews
His taste for good house has led him to be one of the most recognized DJs with the best projection in Spain. His roots? The 90s and the mythical Pacha Santander club, which later catapulted him to settle in Madrid, where little by little he found a place in some of what have ended up being the most outstanding events in the country.
Alex DC alternates monthly residences and a tour of large venues such as Pacha Madrid, Olivia Valere (Marbella), Liberata, Musée, New Garamond, Kapital, Moma, and Florida, among others. Apart from being a professional DJ, Alex also works as a producer and remixer.
You can listen to his mixes on Soundcloud
