January 18, 2018

DJ KNOWLEDGE CRATE

The DJ Knowledge Crate is a new podcast aimed at any level of DJ from those learning to DJ to more advanced DJ techniques, or those simply interested in more tech side of DJ culture in general.

Hosted by Bazza Ranks (Dirty Dubsters) with DJ tech gurus Jay Cunningham & Terry Ryan from On The Rise DJ Academy, this new podcast will fill a much needed void for those looking to keep up with the latest in DJ technology and evolution.

Each month the lads will bring you discussions, news, tips and reviews with facts and banter as well as interviews with some of the key behind the scene players on the latest kit, software, tips and more.

I did a session with Terry to get some new ideas on how to DJ. Having been DJing for about 12 years, it was good to talk to and learn new things from an experienced DJ, including playing with some new equipment. Would definitely go back for another refresher.

The 3 day 1 on 1 course was amazing. A real eye opener on how to fully use my controller (Pioneer DDJ SX2) and Serato DJ. Jay showed me how to use iTunes properly for playlists and how to organise my music, which I was having issues with. I was using Serato crates but after seeing the iTunes side I have changed to this method. Terry was great at showing me how to scratch and was really patient whilst I got the hang of it. Overall a great experience and will definitely book some sessions in the future.

After countless years of playing vinyl I decided it's time to catch up with the digital world and got myself a Traktor s4 controller and Traktor DJ software. It looks quite daunting but after a day with Jay at On The Rise DJ Academy I have a good all round knowledge of the controller and software. More importantly the things I really needed to know he went through with me in depth and I now know inside out. Very knowledgeable crew, very good day, it's good to learn

The 3-day course by OTR is the perfect way to start DJ'ing from scratch. I've always loved music, but had never even touched a pair of decks. After the course though, I have the ability & tools to already create my own mixes with practice. Not only are Jay and Terry so knowledgeable about their craft, and flexible with scheduling, but they are also great fun to spend time with. My advice to anyone wishing to learn - don't waste time looking anywhere else!

I took part in the 8 week DJ course with Jay and Terry. I'm a complete beginner and probably a little older than the average starter to be honest. I picked up far more than I expected to. Both the guys are very experienced and incredibly helpful when it comes to imparting knowledge and even tailoring parts of the course to the requirements of each individual. They touched on much of the core fundamentals and delved into plenty of advanced fields as well. All in all I couldn't be happier, and once I've had time to practise and get myself up to scratch I'll definitely be back to do some one on one classes.

I'd been struggling for years trying to self learn and decided to do one on one course and I can't recommend enough how much I enjoyed learning. The knowledge of equipment is mind blowing from jay and can't recommend them enough, well worth every penny.

Found Jay and the Rise Team to be very professional and knowledgeable in the Field of DJ'ing. During the course they made me felt relaxed & comfortable. They trained me on my own pace. I would definitely recommend any new comer and experienced DJ to train or update them selves. I'm definitely looking forward for my second stint.
