DJs track down greatness in music and squeeze it together. Like a master chef who picks just one perfect cherry from each tree to make his pie, a DJ condenses the work and talent of hundreds of musicians into a single concentrated performance. DJs bring all the right things together - that’s why we love them so much. And they make it to measure. None of this off-the-rack, one-size-fits-all rubbish; when you hear a DJ play, you’re getting a unique performance, exactly suited to the moment. Proper DJs don’t just trot out a load of nice tunes, they think carefully about the time, the place, and the people in front of them, and choose something that’s perfect. This is the real skill of DJing, and it doesn’t come easily. Knowing music, finding music, understanding music is something that takes years. And once they’ve started, there’s no end. The real work of a DJ happens behind the scenes - searching dark record stores, devouring endless lists and daunting stacks of vinyl, and sniffing out the wonders they contain. Playing records is rarely hard work, but doing the research and amassing the knowlege to do it well is a full-time job.
