Disc Jockey = A person who plays records. Simple and done. Now DJs that go hybrid with their gear on stage like Carl Cox are bringing musicianship to the artform.     See Less

1:14 he is right. when you're on the floor jamming hard, it's a "new song" to you the listener. it's     See More t;remix", or a "mash-up" because logic & science and music design doesn't exist on the dance floor, it's an entirely new experience that takes you to dimensions you have never experienced before. we need to understand all music is the same, the difference is how each song makes us feel. so yeah, when the DJ is transitioning, the listener is hearing a new song...    See Less

Hi, just got on my screen this video and was interested in the subject. I will challenge all of you with my view without the intention to disrespect no-one.
First thing first on any discu     See More ersation, define the therms.

What is a song? A song is a short piece of music, usually with words, that combines melody and vocals to create a powerful emotional experience. It encompasses the storytelling aspect of lyrics and the intricate interplay between melody, harmony, rhythm, and structure. From traditional folk songs to contemporary rock and pop anthems, every song has its unique flavor that has a lasting impact on our hearts and minds.

What is a DJ?,a DJ is used as an all-encompassing term to also describe persons who mix music from other recording media. DJs may adopt the title "DJ" in front of their real names, adopted pseudonyms, or stage names.

what is a Producer? A music producer oversees music-making. Music producers are creative minds who manage a song or album’s recording and production. They work closely with artists to bring their musical vision to life. Behind the scenes, they call the shots on arrangements, instrumentation, and musical direction.

What is a composer? A composer is a person who writes music. Many composers are, or were, also skilled performers/artists of music

what is a musician/Artist? someone who is skilled in playing music, usually as a job.

With all of this then I can say that a DJ who mixes and recreates music is a musician, since he is blending sound and at that moment he is composing. I think it is right for a DJ to say I’m a Musician DJ

If the DJ is waiting for the one music to end and then start a new one from scratch without blending he is a Disc Jokey on the pure therm.

The same concept applies to Producer, since in todays world of electronic music a music is created with different elements same are loops created by someone, others are played by the producer, but I dare to say that a Producer is not being a composer/musician 100% of the time.

We could explore more the subject but would be better to be a conversation since it would allow each one to challenge the idea being presented.

Dj's aren't a 'spotify playlist live on decks'. It's more than that. The one skill of being a DJ is knowing how to read a crowd. You have to know what to play, where to p     See More o to play it for and at what time to play it at. Yeah, all these small tricks are cool, and youre really tight when you mix, but being able to play the right stuff transcends all that cool shit.    See Less

I think my take it on it is if you get a vocal of one song and match it to a certain part of another song, that is mixing, since mixing is blending two or more tracks in part or in full toge     See More a different one that makes musical sense. Remixing is where you take an element of one track and change it some way to make it different from how the original artist had it, then you can mix it with another beat or instrumental etc. You take a vocal from a track and leave it as it is and play it trmporarily over something else thats mixing. Remixing is when you take that vocal and you change the pitch or you chop it up and do stutter effects or make it more or you maybe have the voice changed to a vocoder effect etc. playing a vocal over another song isnt the same as changing the original then mixing it, therefore remixing. I havent dj’d for years so im not sure whats possible now compared with what could be done ten years ago when i was doing it. When i say 10, i mean more 😂    See Less
