Helpful tips for DJs who are looking to expand their career internationally:

Do's:

1. Research the local music scene: Before you travel to a new country, do your research on the local music scene and what kind of music is popular there. This will help you tailor your setlist and better connect with your audience.
2. Network with local DJs and promoters: Building relationships with local DJs and promoters can help you get gigs and gain exposure in new markets.
3. Be respectful of local customs and traditions: When traveling to new countries, it's important to be respectful of local customs and traditions. This includes everything from dress codes to food and drink etiquette.
4. Be flexible and adaptable: Traveling to new countries can be unpredictable, so it's important to be flexible and adaptable in your approach. Be prepared to adjust your setlist, equipment, and performance style as needed to better connect with your audience.
5. Embrace the cultural experience: Traveling to new countries is an opportunity to experience new cultures and connect with people from all over the world. Embrace the cultural experience and learn as much as you can about the local customs, traditions, and music scene.

Don'ts:

1. Assume that the same music works everywhere: Every country and culture has its own unique music preferences and styles, so it's important to do your research and tailor your setlist accordingly.
2. Ignore local DJs and promoters: Building relationships with local DJs and promoters is key to gaining exposure and booking gigs in new markets.
3. Disrespect local customs and traditions: When traveling to new countries, it's important to be respectful of local customs and traditions. Ignoring or disrespecting these customs can result in a negative reception from the local community.
4. Be inflexible or rigid in your approach: Being rigid in your approach can limit your ability to connect with your audience and succeed in new markets. It's important to be flexible and adaptable in your approach.
5. Only focus on the music: While music is a key part of being a DJ, it's important to also focus on building relationships, networking, and embracing the cultural experience. Focusing solely on the music can limit your ability to connect with your audience and succeed in new markets.
