DJ Talk-Up Studio

Talk over the ramp and hit the post!

Your Talk-Up Goal: Listen to this song intro (called the "ramp") by clicking Audition Ramp. Notice where the vocals start. Your goal is to provide a "talk-up," speaking over the ramp and stopping right before where the vocals start (called the "post").

Be sure to wear headphones so that you can hear the song's ramp while you record your talk-up, and to help you judge how to pace yourself to "hit the post."
🎧 Headphone Monitoring Active: Always wear headphones so you can clearly hear the ramp while you talk without creating room echo.

Usually IncludeThe artist and song title
Could IncludeYour air name, show name, time, temperature, year the song charted, its top chart position, a piece of music trivia, or a clever lyric reference.
