Julia is so great! As an adult learner I was worried about not being quick like the kids. Julia is very patient with me and if she's frustrated she never, ever shows it!! Daniel runs an excellent business. Very professional and quick, open communication. 10/10 recommend.

I LOVE Dark Mountain Music! I get to see Julia for voice lessons and she has helped me so much with my confidence and ability to sing again! I had taken a year off from singing due to health related things and I was definitely nervous to start again but she was so kind and encouraging and made it a very fun hobby for me to enjoy again! Thank you Julia!!

WHY LEARN To dj?

Artistic Expression

DJing offers a creative outlet for expressing oneself through music. It allows you to meticulously curate playlists, seamlessly blend tracks, and create distinctive mixes. This artistic medium serves as a gratifying platform to showcase your distinct musical taste and style to a broader audience.

Musical Appreciation

DJing delves deeply into the world of music genres, artists, and tracks. As you become proficient at harmoniously mixing songs, your appreciation for music’s subtleties, such as beatmatching, harmonics, and song structure, deepens. This heightened understanding enhances your musical enjoyment, making it a more gratifying and enriching experience.

Social Interaction

DJing provides a social dimension, serving as a conduit for connecting with others through the universal language of music. Whether you’re spinning tracks at gatherings, clubs, or events, it offers an avenue to engage with diverse audiences. Moreover, DJing can be a gateway to networking opportunities within the music industry, fostering valuable connections and expanding your social circle

Skill Advancement

DJ lessons necessitate the cultivation of multifaceted skills, encompassing multitasking, precise beatmatching, timing, and adept crowd management. As you refine these competencies, their benefits extend beyond the DJ booth.
