DUBAI DJ ACADEMY VIDEO 3 interview and information

0:00 To people the importance of

Right, here we are at the Dubai DJ Academy and I'm with, what's your name? DJ Daniela Royale. Alright, now we discussed, well you told me something earlier on about your image which I think is wonderful, your attitude towards your image. So can you explain to people the importance of an image if you want to become a professional DJ? Well, in my view it's very important to behave in a certain way. For example, I don't go clubbing, I don't go party unless I'm working. I believe that the professional should be seen as someone that's reserved and if I'm out every night drinking, partying, white people pay me. Another thing I do not do and I recommend, do not drink while you're DJing. Ever. Because if there's anything can go wrong or anything sometimes can be wrong, nobody can blame if you're drunk. Exactly. So I think good behavior and no politeness and be reserved and never drunk. Okay. I'm sure there are going to be many lady DJs who watch this video. Or should I say ladies who would like to be a DJ? Yes. What advice can you give them?

2:05 You must keep learning because

First, the true passion for music because it's a lot of hard work. People think I'm a DJ because I have 100 songs and I like the 100 songs and get a good instructor. I'm glad that I've been learning with you because every time you get someone that knows more than you do, you take a step further. So always be your worst critical. Don't let people come to you and say you're lacking this, you're lacking that. So if you want to be a professional DJ, be realistic. Believe in your talent but also to have the skills, you must have... You must keep learning because... It's different angles, isn't it? Yes. It's getting information from different angles because you can get very stagnant if you just do it your own way. Absolutely. And it's very important to have someone that's been around for many years to pinpoint where you're getting wrong because, you know, some people they get offended. To me, when someone like you or someone that's been around for many years comes and says, Daniela, are you good?

But you can improve A or B. And then I think for the people out there looking to be a professional DJ, first, it's not all glamour. It's a lot of hard work too. Through passion, it has to be true. It's not about the money. It's not about the fame. It's about the music. The fame, the money comes after. And always, always seek professional help to improve these kids. It's very important. If I can recommend. Alright, thank you very much.
