Innovative By Nature - Defining the DMV by the Turntables


Listen Later

The Art of DJing is one that is overlooked and at times undervalued in the realm of the Music Industry. Some tend to see a DJ and think "that guy/girl is just playing a playlist and bobbing to the music", barely acknowledging the artful AND taxing side of the art; beatmatching, feeling the crowd, music fidelity, equipment management, flow state in music, etc.

Presented by Made in the DMV, join us and get blessed with a healthful dose of knowledge and wisdom from this conference's panel; composed of some of the most notable DJs and Event Organizers in the DMV area. In this assembly, watch as they talk on topics such as finding a silverlining amidst the pandemic, how to establish your value as an artist/musician, and the utmost importance of CONSISTENCY in your art. Moreover, we get to learn their stories on the murky parts of the music industry and the culture in it, and the necessity of being able to stand your ground beyond the ever-changing landscape of the scene, especially pertaining to the DMV area. Stories on how to build and define your value, finding positives in the negatives, and how music dictates the culture and how musicians can take advantage of the opportunities arisen. Get treated to a bundle of insight from the masters of both the turntables and music negotiation. Welcome to the DMV Conference!
