About Xavier
I've been DJing for 12 years and producing for 8. I'm currently a resident DJ at FOLD Nightclub in London and have played accross the UK: Corsica Studios, Invisible Wind Factory, The White Hotel whilst having international clubbing and festival experience in Berlin (Griessmuehle, Anomalie, QS1) Copenhagen (Den Aden Side), Vilnius & Cambodia playing alongside some of the biggest names in Techno but also in a variety of situations.
I'm also a DJ technician and sound engineer working at FOLD and major festivals across the country and have experience in working in various other rolls across the electronic music scene and of course have my fair share of hours on the dance-floor.

Perfect! Xavier is a great guy and a great tutor. I was mixing by the end of the first lesson and beatmatching by the end of the second. His music knoweledge and the techniques he uses to share this are second to none. Can't recommend him highly enough!
Perfect! Xavier is the perfect mix of a technical teacher and fun person! He made me feel so comfortable as a complete beginner, he was so prepared and organised in his teaching methodology that I was able to start having fun with mixing in the first lesson. His advice on equipment was also invaluable. Thanks Xavi!
Perfect! Knowledge and methodology
Perfect! I had my first DJ lesson with Xavier and it was absolutely amazing! I was watching YouTube tutorials before, trying to learn things on my own, then I booked my first lesson with Xavier and he set me on the right track. In just one lesson, he showed me so many skills that made the hours I spent watching YouTube videos a waste as having Xavier there in person to teach me and correct me live was so much better.
Xavier was also very patient with my learning speed and process, which made the whole learning process really great. He gave me the space to experiment and figure things out on my own, which was exactly what I needed. Also, when I mentioned I'm into minimal/techno music, he came prepared with a bunch of tracks for us to dive into. I really appreciated that!
I couldn't have asked for a better teacher. Thanks a ton, Xavier, for making my first DJ experience so awesome! Can't wait for the next lesson! :)- Very strong understanding of musical timing and took in everything that was said the first time. Practice of beat-matching, downloading own music and applying what was taught in the lesson. Try practicing an hour a day!Xavier's response :
