Overcoming DJing Hurdles Then and Now
Coach Hapa breaks down the biggest barriers he faced when he started DJing in the ‘90s, spoiler alert: vinyl wasn’t cheap. But he also draws a sharp contrast with today’s DJ world, where the challenge isn’t gear or music, it’s clarity and guidance. With thousands of tutorials and tools at your fingertips, it’s easy to get lost in the noise. This episode is a reminder that building a strong foundation is everything, especially if you’re serious about turning your passion into something bigger.
