About John-Luis
A DJ for over a decade, I've played college student nights, Rock N Roll dive bars, house parties and weddings. I've run my own events such as a disco night called Nutbush, a 60's psychedelic night called Helter Skelter and an indie night called Mirror Kisses.
I don't believe in gatekeeping, I want to share my knowledge so more people can get behind the decks and share the music they love!

Beginners classes in how to DJ
Whether you have dreams of playing night clubs, or just want to host a party to 5 friends, I can get you started on your DJ journey.
LGBTQ+ friendly.
All genres welcome!
I’ll teach you the basics of DJ-ing in a friendly, non-judgmental environment so you can move at your own pace.
I’ll demystify the gear and get you mixing tracks in your first lesson!
From there we will build up your skills adding complexity until you’re ready to fly on your own.
I have DJ gear at my house in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn but if you have your own gear feel free to bring it along and I can teach you on yours.
Send me 15 songs you want in your dream DJ set and we can go from there!
I'm inspired to give people the skills they need to play the music that they love and get their party or event pumping!
I can even give advice on how to put on your own events, from logistics, promotion, and more!

Details
Get your first lesson for free just to dip your toes in and see if you want to do more. I'll have music ready to go to demonstrate what you'll be learning and get you on the decks mixing tracks immediately! We can chat about any goals you have, and work towards that. Or if you're just interested to learn and do something fun, then that's great! I have a lesson plan ready to go that we can jump right into.
Send me a playlist of tracks you want to learn to put into a DJ set and we can go from there!
Each lesson we'll build up your skill levels so you'll go from transitioning between songs to beat mixing and adding some flair!
I'll go through all the DJ gear and what it all does too. No button is too scary!
Got your own gear? I can help you get the most out of it. Bring it along!
If you just want some one-off lessons to help with some areas you're having trouble with, I'll be happy to help! We can go through your set, work on transitions, go over anything you're unsure of with the gear or anything else. Maybe you just need someone to be there to troubleshoot when things go pair shaped?! I'm here for you!
And if you need advice on putting on events I'm your guy! I've worked for years as a music publicist and event promoter so can help with everything from a house party to a festival!
