Feeling a little confident, I started thinking about how to start landing gigs. I figured it would be hard for promoters to trust a new DJ so I figured my first step would be to get my name on a few flyers first (as social proof). I saw that El Real Under made an Instagram post about their open deck nights on Thursdays so I sent them a DM from my personal account. They replied a couple weeks later, asked for my DJ name, and where I was from. They sent over the flyer a day or two later while I prepped. + +I used to go to a club with a similar vibe back in NY, and I figured industrial, EBM, and darker stuff would be acceptable. I ended up playing some trancey stuff as well from Viper Diva which I’d probably avoid doing now even though it was well recieved that night. + +Anyways, I showed up and saw that the gear was older and far more worn out than I had expected. I had been watching a bunch of YouTube videos just in case something like this were to happen. The biggest issue was that I didn’t have an adapter for my 3.5mm headphone jack. Luckily they had some very decent spare headphones which I used for the next 2 hours. I was scheduled for only 1 hour, but because the next 2 DJs got there a bit late I got to play longer (which is when I started reaching towards stuff Viper Diva because my library was pathetically small).Diff truncated (37 lines total).
