In this class you will learn the fundamentals of contemporary DJ'ing. We will be holding two 70-minute sessions, during which we will cover: a brief history of DJ'ing, counting music, understanding music (tempo, key, rhythm), interface effects, and, most importantly, how to mix!

2:40-4:00 PM: Session 2 (8 slots)
Prerequisites:
