Beatport x Elijah: You Don’t Need the Perfect Setup to Start DJing
Elijah and Jubilee join forces in Beatport’s latest “You’re Already a DJ” episode to explore what it really takes to start DJing – no matter where (or when) you begin.

What if we told you that if you love music, you’re already a DJ? That’s the message behind Beatport’s latest campaign with Elijah – artist, writer, and co-founder of Butterz – who’s inviting music lovers of all kinds to rethink what it means to be a DJ in 2025.
In our latest conversation of this ongoing series, Elijah links up with the beloved and bass-driven NYC artist and Magic City label head Jubilee to tackle the question, "is it ever really too late to start DJing?" Together, they discuss their origin stories, the importance of playlist curation, what really matters when getting started and why having a friend by your side can be exactly the inspiration you need. Check it out below.
Each month, we’re teaming up with Elijah (and some special guests) for a new playlist challenge. Make one based on the theme, drop in your details and playlist link, and you’re in the running to win a $1,000 DJ bundle from AlphaTheta/Pioneer DJ. Check out this month's challenge here.
