In this article, i'm going to tech you how to become a Disk Jockey in Ghana even across the Globe.
Many people asked me and i quote "Hell please I want to become a DJ so how can i go about it." It is just simple but some people thought being a DJ is something big or hard to learn but i'm here now to let you know that being a DJ is just small thing, but you just need to follow the steps i'm coming to list now.
Let me start by
Tools that will be needed as being a DJ
To become a DJ you need some basic tools or Equipment like Laptop & a DJ Software(VirtualDJ, Serato DJ etc).
These two things will help you to become a dj and also we called some Keyboard Mapping, but i want us to start the process with the basic mapping but before we start, with the mapping lets go for the most popular dj software (VirtualDJ).
How do I download & Install the DJ Software?
Download the free version of VirtualDJ software at the official VirtualDJ website Here.
Now after you get the software, run the Setup as Administrator and follow the steps to install it. Open the the software after the installation and do your necessary settings that will feet you in using the App.

Lets start DJing by loading our decks with songs
In VDJ DJing, its as simple as the app name so what you need to do is to be practicing the play and pause every blessed day and you are good to go to become a Pro as people.
How to Mix Like a Pro
In VDJ, we call something
1. CUE
In mixing,this button will help you cut or mark the songs at where you want to start playing the song from and it also help audience enjoy your play style of music.
2. SYNC
This button button also help to match Beat Per Minute (BPM) of the two playing songs to sound as one.
3. CROSSFADER
This also help to move the songs left Deck or to the right Deck
I strongly believe that through all these small steps and everyday practicals, You can become one of the best DJs in the world.
