A New Respect

February 4th, 2010 by admin

My favorite uncle has been a DJ for as long as I can remember. As a young child, I used to watch him at work and think about what a fun and easy job he had. He got to spend his time at dance clubs, meeting new people and having fun, and all he had to do was turn a couple of knobs. But when I got older, I learned that dj mixing was not quite as easy as that. A person had to have a knowledge of timing and beat patterns, as well as an intuitive sense of what made music sound good. Since I learned this, I have gained a new respect for him.
