DJing for Dummies - John Wiley and Sons Ltd

A fun-to-read guide that shows would-be disc jockeys how to mix and scratch their way to nightclub fame From hip-hop and house music to trance and techno, DJs are stars-the people who match beats, create sonic textures and effects, and keep the crowds dancing. This fun and easy guide gives novice DJs the know-how they need to start mixing, create a personal style, put together mix tapes, and land gigs at parties and clubs. It covers basic and better-than-basic equipment (from turntables and headphones to amplifiers and mixers), mixing techniques for vinyl and CDs, the art of matching musical keys and tempos, and special effects like scratching. John Steventon (London, UK) is a semi-professional DJ who runs the DJing Web site Recess.co.uk, one of the leading online resources for learning how to DJ.
