1. Play a house party for free before you charge for club gigs. Drunk friends are the harshest crowd. No vibe lighting, no sound system forgiveness, just your track selection and timing.

2. Record every single set, even the s**t ones. Listen back sober. You’ll hear every trainwreck you thought you got away with. It’s humbling as f*ck but you’ll improve 10x faster than just “practicing.”

3. Show up to venues on nights you’re NOT playing. See what works. What bombs. How other DJs recover. The room teaches you what YouTube tutorials can’t

4. Spend 1 hour organising your library for every 3 hours you practice mixing. You can’t perform if you’re scrolling through 47 versions of the same track mid-set. Preparation is everything.

5. Stand in the crowd during someone else’s set and watch the crowd, not the DJ. You’ll see exactly when energy shifts, when people check out, when they lean in. The crowd tells you everything if you actually look.

Save this for later 💾

This is about to split the DJ industry in half.
Anyma at the Sphere wasn’t a set. It was an experience. And AI is about to make this accessible to everyone.

The DJs who figure this out first won’t be fighting for club slots. What’s your 2026 prediction? ⬇️

👇🏼 30 things to do so you don’t waste another year as a DJ / Producer in 2026:
1. Pick one genre lane and own it for 12 months
2. Your DJ name should work as an Instagram handle
3. Define your sound in 5 words or less
4. Stop calling yourself a DJ. Call yourself what you actually do.
5. Archive old content that doesn’t match your current direction
6. Film every gig. Even the s**t ones.
7. Post the moment, not the memory (24hr rule)
8. Your grid should tell a story, not just show gigs
9. Turn videos from one set into 10+ pieces of content
10. Create content for non-DJs (they book DJs, DJs don’t)
11. Stop asking “should I post this?” Just post it.
12. Release a Mixtape, Remix, or Original every quarter (MRO Method)
13. Make edits and mashups for OTHER DJs to play
14. Your unreleased music is worthless. Release it.
15. Stop perfectionism. Finished beats perfect.
16. Connect before you pitch. Never cold pitch.
17. Help 3 DJs bigger than you before asking for anything
18. Build relationships with promoters, not just venues
19. Your network is built in DMs, not comment sections
20. Say no to gigs that don’t move you forward
21. Set your rate. Learn to negotiate.
22. Venues buy certainty, not talent. Prove demand.
23. Track every gig (date, venue, rate, crowd size)
24. Build a simple booking system (inquiry form, contracts, invoices)
25. Follow on Instagram
26. Treat this like a business, not a hobby. Or it’ll stay a hobby.
