Did you ever wonder…
…how to expand your artistic approach in DJing? …how to refine and enhance your DJing skills? …how to expand your set-up and use it as a creative instrument? …to build an accurate artist profile and communicate your vision? …about the ideas behind innovative approaches of renowned DJs?
DJing has become a valid art-form with specific aesthetics, methods, and artistic potential. It has not only changed the way of music production and reception in popular culture, but also instigated experimentation due to innovative approaches of (mis-)applying sound technologies. Cultural theory has described the DJ as providing a new ideal of author who selects, mixes, and combines existing material in real time and, in doing so, introduces a new logic of creation.
This series of Masterclasses offers exclusive insights of renowned artists to expand and enhance your artistic practice. Besides advanced concepts of DJing (e.g., selecting, mixing, dramaturgy) neighbouring fields, like remixing, producing, or curating will be touched, focusing on artistic and aesthetic aspects. Broaden your practice, find and realize your individual artistic way.
