Meet Peter
Hi, this is Peter from The DJ Podcast. Yep, that’s me you hear when you watch one of my videos. When I started DJing in 2005 MIDI controllers were almost non-existent, turntables were still being heavily used, and there were no video tutorials online for new DJs to watch. The launch of YouTube changed everything. I started making video tutorials alongside others like Johnathon “The DJ Tutor”, Brian S Redd, and Trevor Nygaard. Unfortunately the screen capture software at the time wasn’t great and the videos were very low quality.
In 2009 I started The DJ Podcast. The timing seemed right as new software and YouTube’s HD video streaming had made it easier than ever to create and share high quality video tutorials. Since then I have created over 200 video tutorials, been interviewed multiple times, and had my videos featured on the front page of a couple company websites. What I enjoy the most about The DJ Podcast is interacting with you, the viewer. Whether you leave a comment or tweet me, you are the reason why I do what I do.
Going forward I want to focus on making The DJ Podcast the best learning experience for DJs of all skill levels. You won’t find the same marketing press releases for the newest piece of DJ gear. Instead you will get tutorials, courses, and training specific to you and your needs. You can learn more about our online DJ education options below. If you have any questions or comments please contact me and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
When I am not working on The DJ Podcast I post my DJ mixes to my DJ website.
