equating sweating to hard, skillful work though extremely limited anecdotal evidence just isn't credible. i'm sure most people have seen a dj sweating and that has no regard on whether or not they are skilled or working hard. i'm sure most people have also seen orchestras performing at the top of their game without breaking a sweat at all. those things are not mutually exclusive.

DJing is not always about performance, it's about moving the crowd. Dance music DJing started with disco. The DJ was in a little booth where no one could see him. The music was what moved you all evening long. If I close my eyes it should sound good. A lot of performance DJ's are fun to watch but their soundtrack is wack. It takes talent to carry a dancefloor, that's what Jay Lumen does.

I am glad you ears don't process the percussion instruments and the syncopated samples between the 4/4 beat. In fact, house music is based around the discipline of the 4/4. The 4/4 is the constant. It's what you do around it that defines house music.

06.07.2012		Notice I said " a lot of performance DJ's" not "All performance DJ's" this guy Z-Trip (like Girl Talk) put some thought into his mix. He's not scratching every 10 seconds and he actually let's the crowd dig into the beat before cutting to the next track. Now if can only stay off the microphone he would be 10% better.

Ardell Lafranchi
04.07.2012		goes from like a minimal/progressive to a deep house.... bad call on the last djs part if anything he should have been the first dj
Cole Maroto
04.07.2012		of course the first guy killed it. did you see those wrist bands he's rockin?!?!
Jerica Salava
04.07.2012		The first two DJ's get the place rockin' and then the third guy euthanizes the dancefloor and the last guy (believes he's a superstar) freezes it.
