Phil Morse, Digital DJ Tips School Founder
HOW I DISCOVERED THE FIVE-STEP FORMULA...
In my career as a pro DJ, I played 1000s of gigs, including for U2 in Dublin, at Privilege in Ibiza (at the time the world's biggest club) and for Ministry of Sound. Throughout, I always puzzled why some DJs "made it", and some didn't.
I saw DJs with awesome music who just couldn't master mixing. DJs who had all the tricks, but who bored the hell out of their dancefloors. And DJs who I honestly thought were brilliant, but who got overlooked for "lesser" DJs.
When I compared those DJs with myself, and with other successful DJs, I started to realise that there were five big areas that DJs had to succeed in - and that if they neglected just one, it was game over before they'd even begun!
But most interestingly, I also discovered that a DJ doesn't need to be AMAZING in all of the areas to succeed - just knowing what they are and working deliberately on them is enough to improve, rapidly!
When I first revealed all of this in my book Rock the Dancefloor! in 2016, it was all very new, but it’s since helped 1000s of DJs understand what they really need to do to improve.
FROM BOOK TO COURSE...
As soon as we published the book and saw its runaway success, I knew I needed to do more - that a book was actually only the start. People started to ask me if there was a course to teach them the steps in the book, to help them to implement them.
People wanted to be able to work through the steps with me, to be shown them as if they were looking over my shoulder, to be able to ask questions directly to me - in other words, to actually be TAUGHT how to do this stuff by me, instead of just reading about it.
Launched back in 2016, The Complete DJ Course was our answer, and it changed forever how DJing is taught. Its enduring formula "just works", and it has since helped many thousands of DJs to play like the pros. Maybe it's no surprise how many others have tried to copy it.
But now it's back, completely remade, updated and improved for 2024, alongside the already global bestselling second edition of my book. This is your chance to own the All-New Complete DJ Course, the definitive guide to how DJing is done today.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN...
The All-New Complete DJ Course brings to life, expands upon and demonstrates in brand-new ways the five-step formula for DJing like a pro, as used by thousands of DJs already to learn to DJ or to build on the skills they already have. Here are some highlights...
- In Step 1, The Gear, you learn how DJ gear and software work, from entry-level controllers to standalone systems and pro gear, featuring all the major hardware and software brands - you'll see names like AlphaTheta, Pioneer DJ, Serato, Traktor, Denon DJ, Rane, Reloop, VirtualDJ, Numark, Technics, Rekordbox, Djay Pro...
- The best DJs can play on any gear, and I'll teach you the four things you need to know so you can play on ANY set-up too. This will also help you to avoid making expensive mistakes when starting out or updating your gear
-
Step 2 is The Music. Firstly, this course works whatever music you're into - just like it works with any DJ gear. Now, here's a BIG myth: Some people will tell you that you need a huge record collection to DJ with. Not only are they wrong, it turns out that's actually the LAST thing you need - and if you believe this, you're holding yourself back
- Instead, using our proven "Playlist Pyramid" method, I'll show you how to discover, shortlist, organise and prepare a lean, mean music library, so you can always get your hands on exactly the right track to play next, at any DJ gig. I'll help you incorporate music subscription services into your workflow, and fix your messy music collection
-
Step 3, Mixing, is a big one (it gets two full modules). First, I teach you the timeless techniques that all good DJs need to know whatever their gear. Many DJs neglect these - but without them, you'll never progress. You'll master music structure, counting & timing, jogwheel control, mixer skills and manual beatmixing
- Then I reveal the features and tricks of the latest digital systems - think the most up-to-date info on cues, loops, FX, key sync, live remixing and so on, including cutting edge ways to effortlessly switch between genres and BPMs in your DJing
-
Playing DJ sets in public is very different from practising in your bedroom. So Step 4, Performing, shows you what to expect in venues nowadays, how to set up, how to read a crowd, how to deal with requests, how to fill dancefloors (and keep them full) - and the one secret that ensures promoters and venue owners will remember you and want to book YOU again, not some other DJ
- Confidence and nerves are very real obstacles for many DJs - but drawing on my own experiences (they aren't pretty!) I share with you how to conquer "imposter syndrome" so you can enjoy your DJ sets and do the best job
-
Trust me, once you've followed the first four steps and successfully played in front of others, you'll want more. So Step 5, Success, helps you decide where to take your DJing hobby next. It'll show you how to get regular bookings, build a vibrant online profile, become known and respected in your town, throw your own parties, even start a mobile DJ business
- Like the idea of making DJ mixes, producing your own music, or even livestreaming your DJ sets? All of these things are also covered in this final module, as I help you to make DJing a long-term part of your life, just like you've always dreamed it could be, and just as it has become for thousands of students before you

Inside The Course - Full Curriculum
Module 1: "Getting Started"
You're making an awesome commitment in learning to DJ the right way, and the rewards are huge. This module makes sure you've put enough time aside to make this happen, you're clear about why you're doing this, your goals are clear, you're properly set up with everything you need, and that you've surrounded yourself with the right people and things to have the best chance of succeeding.
Module 2: "Gear"
The first step of the five-step formula is "Gear" (which includes software). It is the "geeky" side of DJing - understanding the equipment, the connections, why stuff works, what to do when it doesn't, and so on. This step is vital so that you are confident around setting up and using DJ systems of all types, and this module is also a lot of fun, as you'll get to see all kinds of cool tech!
Module 3: "Music"
A DJ is nothing without their music, of course. But too few people have a thought-through system for immersing themselves in, discovering, shortlisting, buying, preparing and organising their music. Smart DJs realise that a good music system that stays with them for life is vital, as is constantly tending and improving their knowledge of their music library. This module will make sure YOU are one of those DJs.
Module 4: "Mixing Part 1"
Mixing is the third step, and because it's a big one, we've divided it into two modules. In this Mixing Part 1 module, you'll learn the universal skills of DJ mixing - timeless skills that whether you're DJing on old-fashioned turntables (which indeed, we start with), a modern phone app, a controller, pro club gear, or anything else, you will always be calling on, and that will make sure you do a good job.
Module 5: "Mixing Part 2"
Module 6: "Performing"
The fourth step is "Performing". It's a big leap from practice to public, yet regularly "doing" DJing rather than just messing around at home is the single best way to improve. But with so many "gig" options, how do you do it? Here you'll learn about how it's done in bars, clubs and at mobile DJ events, with advice on preparing, dealing with the inevitable nerves, taking requests, reading the crowd, and much more.
Module 7: "Success"
More than ever, success means different things to different DJs nowadays. But getting regular bookings, having a vibrant online profile, being known and respected in your town, even throwing your own parties or running your own DJ business - these are all things that feature in many DJs' definitions of success. For others its about making DJ mixes, producing tracks, or even building a global audience livestreaming. That's why all of these things are covered in this module.
BONUS: "Real-World Gig Setups"
Gain some valuable behind the scenes intel in this mini-bonus module showing you two real world DJ set ups! Firstly you'll follow me as I set up for a real gig in a chilled beach bar location. Then we move on to getting VIP access to the DJ booth in a high-end nightclub, where the sound engineer shares tons of priceless tips for you if you land this type of gig.
And more...
There's direct access to your tutor at every step of the course's eight modules and 70+ video lessons, so you can get personal help when you need it, to speed up your learning.
We've created a special set of handouts, worksheets and checklists for you to download and print if you wish, to help you grasp key concepts and map your goals.

You're returning to DJing after a break, or you've always wanted to do this but somehow never got around to it, or you're already DJing but you want to make sure you're doing it right, it's perfect for you. You're going to improve so much by applying these steps in your DJing.

Of course it goes without saying too, if you're completely new to DJing, and have no idea where to start? Stop looking! This is the course you need.
The course works with ANY software and ANY hardware - again, doesn't matter if you're using Serato, Rekordbox, Traktor, VirtualDJ or any other software platform, and whether you're using a controller, a standalone system, pro gear or even record decks. It's for all brands, including AlphaTheta, Pioneer DJ, Denon DJ, Rane, Numark... and all the others. (Not even got a clue what to use yet? No problem - we'll show you.)

YOUR BIGGEST QUESTIONS ANSWERED...
"I'm sure this has worked and will work for some people, but I've tried to learn so many times before - how can you be so sure it'll work for me?
As with our other successful courses, The All-New Complete DJ Course has three crucial elements. Firstly, it is 100% practical: You'll be doing stuff right from the off, and by the end of the course, you WILL have all the skills you need to DJ to pro level.
Secondly, it is structured to take the pain out of learning - we worry about the learning, you just worry about doing what we say! Our methods are worlds apart from dry, flat, pointlessly complicated training of the type that never seems to get results.
And thirdly - and most importantly - it is a FORMULA. This unique method has taken years to figure out and perfect. It may surprise you. It may even go against what you currently think about how DJing is done. But it works - and the end result will be that finally, you're DJing to pro standard, and making real, joyful progress.
"Can't I just find out all of this on YouTube?"
TLDR: No. But let me answer this one at some length, as we've existed almost as long as YouTube, and so we and our 40,000 students know very clearly the difference.
YouTube is great for being shown how to clean your sneakers, or mend your coffee machine. But for the big things you've wanted to do half your life but not managed to so far? Not so good.
How much time have you got? Who should you trust? How will you know it's working? When you've finished one "TO BE A PRO DJ DO THIS!!!" YouTube video, which one should you watch next? And next?
And if you have any questions, who should you ask? How quickly will they get back to you? Do you honestly think they will?
The All-New Complete DJ Course isn't just a load of YouTube videos behind a paywall. Instead, it is a structured course following a proven framework. Everything you need, nothing you don't. Our student community and live online training sessions are an integral part of this, and unique to how we train. You're joining a school that just happens to be online. We use video - true. That's where the comparison completely and definitively ends.
"Who specifically is it for? I want to make sure it's a good fit for me..."
The course is designed for busy people who aren't sure where to start or who feel "stuck", who feel overwhelmed by the choices out there for learning to DJ, and who may have tried (possibly even several times) to learn before, but have not done as well as they'd hoped.
If you're returning to DJing after a break, have always wanted to give it a go, are a musician wanting to learn to DJ, feel you're not improving despite having done it for many years, or even (especially!) if you're completely new to this, it's 100% for you.
You will start getting results immediately, and you'll feel sure you're on the right path from the off. It takes all the guesswork and worry away, especially if you're not sure you're "doing it right" or you think you're missing important elements in what you're learning - that you're not quite "getting it".
"How is this different from your other courses?"
This is the definitive single course on how DJing is done today - everything you need, and nothing you don't. However you choose to continue to learn from here on in, you will find yourself coming back to The All-New Complete DJ Course again and again.
It complements perfectly our other courses, because they build on the timeless lessons contained here, and to an extent our further courses assume you know and understand the five steps for DJing like a pro that The All-New Complete DJ Course teaches.
Remember too that The All-New Complete DJ Course is constantly updated, and all owners receive all new versions of the course, so you should think of it as an always up-to-date companion to your DJing, for as long as this incredible hobby matters at all to you.
Just as if you are serious about learning how DJing is done today you ought to own a copy of our book, owning a copy of our course will repay your investment many times over in the years to come - it will become your "bible of DJing" and you quickly won't want to be without it.
