different djs


Different dj’s

There are many different types of dj’s in the industry and all have their own way of performing. For example if your a club dj you can more or less play what they like, although they usually have a bpm to stick to more commonly around 120bpm-150bpm but other than that you’ll have a blank canvas to create your set. Djing this way really gives you freedom to express yourself and create a enjoyable atmosphere within the club. The club dj is probably the most glamorous of positions, the resident dj will usually have there name plastered all over the place and have the club owners bending over backwards to keep them happy. That is providing the dj in question is of top quality.

Another path to take is the radio dj. This can either be heaven or hell, for example if your working for a good radio station then you will have more freedom to play what you like, make a name for yourself and if your really good have people tuning in and switching over just to listen to your show. This will also make you more relaxed and give you the opportunity to perform to the highest of your ability. On the other side of that if your working for a radio station your not particularly fond of say for me a classical station, then the job isn’t going to be as enjoyable, you won’t be able to play music you want and you’ll more than likely be sat in your both all day bored, however every job in the music can be considered as a stepping stone and even something like that could lead to better career prospects.
