FULL OVERVIEW:
M 202 meets once a week (60 minutes per day) for six weeks.
Mixing music allows the DJ to control the energy of the audience. When a DJ’s mixes are truly seamless, there are no uncomfortable pauses or harsh changes in tempo. The music never breaks and the party never stops. M 202 breaks down the fundamentals and the techniques as well as the art of mixing.
Large portions of the course are dedicated to honing your mixing skills. Your instructors will work with you on beatmatching, transitioning records, cross-genre mixing (mixing tracks from different genres), and more. In addition we’ll also teach you the art of mixing: you’ll learn about the history of mixing in DJ culture, optimal mixing points within tracks, transition tricks to accentuate your set, the art of building a set, and more.
By the end of this six-week course, you will put together a six song mixing set.
And don’t forget, M 202 teaches the intermediate principles of mixing, no matter what genre or music you want to spin. Whether you like house, rock, hip-hop, dub, or any other type of music (or all the above), we will teach you how to mix it.
Skills Required
Those who take M 202 should have an understanding of the DJ fundamentals. You do not need to be an expert, but you should have some experience with beatmatching. It is recommended that all those who take M 202 have completed DJ 101 or already be familiar with the concepts covered in DJ 101.
AFTER THIS COURSE:
Once you’ve completed M 202, you will have a strong comprehension of beatmatching and mixing techniques as well as the experience and knowledge to mix almost any track.
To continue developing your mixing, check out M 303, Advanced Mixing. You can also check out one of our scratching courses (S 202 or S 303) to learn about turntablism.
