“This was the most intense and rewarding musical experience I’ve had in years.” — DJ Masters participant, Berlin School of Sound

“By Friday I was on stage at ACUD. I still can’t believe it actually happened.” — DJ Masters participant, Berlin School of Sound

Four days. Four of Berlin’s most respected DJs. On Friday night — you’re on stage.

Most people spend years trying to get here. You’ll get there in four days.

RETHE, Błażej Malinowski, Chica Paula, Hypnotic Black Magic.
Each of them has spent decades shaping this city’s sound. For one week in August, they’re in the same room as you.

📅 25–28 August 2026 · ACUD Club, Berlin-Mitte

BY THE END OF THIS WEEK:

→ You’ll walk into any club booth and know exactly what to do
→ You’ll beatmatch, mix, and read a dancefloor with confidence
→ You’ll have played a real B2B set in front of a real crowd at ACUD Club
→ You’ll have four different DJ philosophies from four artists who shaped Berlin’s scene
→ You’ll talk to other DJs as an equal — not as someone who’s “still learning”

This is not a course. This is the beginning of your DJ identity.

How It Works

Tuesday to Friday, four hours each day with a different instructor at ACUD Club. Each session is a deep dive into their personal approach — technique, selection, reading a room, building a set. Every instructor brings a completely different style and philosophy. By the end of the week you’ll have four perspectives on the same craft.

On Friday evening, the club opens its doors. Students and teachers play together in a B2B format — with a real audience. Friday night is a real gig. A real crowd. That’s not a metaphor.

Who Is This For

This is for people who are serious. You don’t need experience — but you need to want it for real. If you’ve ever stood in a club watching a DJ and thought “I want to be up there” — this is your week.

Berlin’s music scene doesn’t care about your resumé. It cares about what you do behind the decks. After Friday night, you’ll have done it.

FAQ

Do I need DJ experience?
No. All levels welcome. Each instructor adapts to the room. The only requirement is enthusiasm. By Friday, everyone plays.

Will I really play in front of an audience on Friday?
Yes. That’s the whole point. The B2B night is a real event with real people. You’ll play alongside your instructors — but you will be performing. This is where the learning becomes real.

What music should I bring?
Bring what you love. If you’re a beginner and don’t have a collection yet — your instructors will help you prepare during the week. No genre requirement.

Refund policy?
No refunds. If you can’t attend, your payment applies to any future BSoS workshop or course. Spots are transferable at any time.
