Why do you need to learn so fast? - Really good?
There are courses you can take and you tube to watch but untimely the tracks come from you and your creativity.
Like anything worth doing in this world it takes time.
I saw your other post about tracks to get gigs. How long have you been DJing?
There is no time limit on becoming good. Some people take a lot longer then others to create something. Just start somewhere and learn everything you can. Create as many song as possible. Your first one most likely isn’t going to be any good. Just learn from everything you do. With that, you will become better.
I just think at the age of 37 is a bit late lol i don't want to be dj grandpa hahaQuote:

Ya think 37 is LATE???😄 I STARTED after I retired and have been DJing for nearly 5 years. People only call you DJ Grandpa if you act like DJ Grandpa.😄 However, I don’t do teen events because I do think having a DJ old enough to be their grandpa is a little creepy.😄Quote:

But unless you are a genius it will probably be a year or 2 before everyone will say wow you are "really good."
There are 2 things to learn, the software and also training your mind to create music. So it also depends on your general software skills and natural music ability.
I would start with Youtube. There may be some good courses but a lot might not be and they can also cost a lot.
It didn't take that long as my natural musical skills were very high. I had my abilities intagrated by birth.
