DIY Saturday mit Gîn Bali: Mommy, I just wanna be a DJ! | Ruhrtriennale 2025

In the organizer's words:

Whether you're just starting out or already have some experience: if you want to try out DJing in a group, this workshop is for you! Together with Gîn Bali, we'll look at the basics: How do I find suitable tracks? How do I bring them together? What is music theory? And what's beatmatching, mixing and all those buttons all about?

In this workshop, you'll get an insight into the technology, get to use professional controllers and software yourself and, above all, try things out together, practise, make mistakes, laugh and get better! Whether you just want to get a taste of it or are thinking of becoming part of club culture as a DJ: There's room here for you, your questions and your music.

And finally, you can put what you've learned to the test in front of a small, cool audience, without any pressure, but with lots of support. Cause at the end of the day you'll sure say: Mommy, I just wanna be a DJ!

For everyone aged 13 and over
