Eventually you may be able to include your own music in a mix, but having an understanding of how tracks are built and composed definitely helps with making your DJing exciting and artistic.

After completing a course you’ll receive a certificate from London Sound Academy and have the chance to join a network of DJ’s, opening up possibilities for getting gigs honing your skills in the real world and embarking on what can be a very exciting career.
