Pepperink 0 Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Hi. I have just started to DJ. I dont have any equipment of my own right now but I go with a friend and have done a few parties. I really like it and say this site and wanted to hang out here and learn some more stuff about DJing. My dad was a radio dj for 25 years and a party DJ for 5 years so I guess im following him.

ChrisPointon 0 Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Nice to see another DJ Chat Member from the U.S, Pepperink http://www.chrispointon.f2s.com/Forum/html/emoticons/042.gif , is there a lot of demand for Mobile disco's in your local area?, or are your looking to follow your Father into a career in Radio. I have friends who work in radio here in the UK, and it is a really difficult industry to get into, mainly because over here they tend to limit the number of licences issued to new stations, so technically there is only one or two stations per area, and I believe that in the U.S there are a lot more stations which also specialise in certain area's of music such as Jazz, Rap, Country, 80's, Rock etc??. I've always been fascinated by radio, (Dare I add even presented on a 28 day Youth & Community radio during the 90's, for my sins!) but I don't think that I could ever get used to the work, I'm so used to working with a visable audience rather than sitting in a studio http://www.chrispointon.f2s.com/Forum/html/emoticons/smile.gif . Are you looking to work in Radio, Pepperink? Link to post Share on other sites
Pepperink 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Im just getting into the field. I have more of a passion to start mobile dj for parties and stuff and maybe later pursue a career in the radio aspect. see another part of that is that if i walk into any radio station in this city and just ask for an application, when they hear my last name i can pretty much have a job no questions asked. I dont want that. I am an independant person and want to make it at stuff I like to do on my own steam and not thorugh what my father did. I will pursue a radio job later in life but I really am starting up and more interested in the mobile dj aspect of it. Link to post Share on other sites
Pepperink 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 sorry I forgot to answer your other question! no there are no radio station limits and the demand for both mobile dj and radio is very high in my area. Link to post Share on other sites
