About the event
On The Trainwreck, mistakes are ENCOURAGED!
Is there a genre, technique, skill, or piece of equipment that you've always wanted to learn or try, but you've felt intimidated to do so?
The TrainWreck aims to help you get out of your comfort zone and try something brand new. Oftentimes my biggest growth has been when I held my feet to the fire and put myself out there.
Here are a few examples of what a possible Trainwreck set could look like:
- Mixing a new genre (doesn't have to be electronic)
- Mixing on DJ equipment you've never used before:
- CDJs
- The cheapest controller ever
- Virtual Reality
- Vinyl
- Vintage equipment
- Incorporating a new trick into your routine:
- Using a third/fourth deck
- Scratching
- Mixing ear-only
- Teaching someone new how to DJ in real-time
- Trying to DJ whilst wearing an inflatable dino suit
- Blindfolded
Seasoned DJs: Think outside the box; if you've "been there done that", is there something else you could do that could present a challenge? Maybe a limitation of some sort?
If you are participating and can't think of anything you'd like to try, please reach out on Discord so we can brainstorm some ideas.
