DJing is a constantly evolving industry. As working DJs, we’re inundated with trends, debates, new software and new equipment.

Faced with all the choices, how can one DJ build a career without going broke or crazy?

Joey Santos over at Digital DJ Tips tried to answer that question recently. Here are his most important points:

  • consider: what kind of DJ do you want to be?
  • become familiar with different software and equipment;
  • consider expanding your brand in other ways, like including video in your performance;
  • let your dreams of the future guide you to the right equipment;
  • consider whether your finances can handle more equipment and software purchases;
  • every software and piece of equipment has its advantages and disadvantages – decide what you can handle and stick with it.
