Nuff said. Unfortunately we do have to work 7-days in a row, including Sunday for the April holiday schedule. I knew there had to be a catch.
There's no way I'm teaching any classes that day.
Instead I'm going to demonstrate how to do DJ mixing on the Ipad. There will be time for practice, ideally one IPad per group.
After that, a student is selected from each group to perform in front of the class. There will be two pre-selected hip hop or techno tracks (the same which they practice with) and the criteria for judgment will be:
-- proper use of the headphones to cue the tracks in advance without the audience hearing.
-- proper volume control between the two tracks.
-- smooth BPM matching between the two tracks
-- originality: use of special effects, looping, cross-fader techniques, or jogging.
There will be a competition with each student and evaluations will be peer-based.
