Is The Art of DJing Dead? ☠️
In this episode of The Get Down, Cream & Gary Duscuss:
The importance of DJ skills has decreased in the current DJ landscape, with venue owners and bookers prioritizing factors such as ticket sales and bottle service.The rise of house DJs and the popularity of EDM have shifted the focus away from technical skills and towards other aspects of DJing.While technical skills are still valued in certain markets and DJ cultures, they are less important in mainstream venues and festivals.The financial challenges of booking high-profile DJs and the high artist fees make it difficult for venues to make a profit.The value of different DJs varies depending on the market and the specific needs of the venue or event. The DJ market is highly competitive, and DJs need to navigate pricing and talent selection carefully to succeed.Nightclubs face significant challenges due to high overhead costs and tough economic conditions, especially in major markets.To succeed in the nightclub industry, it is important to focus on local and regional DJs, try new strategies, and stay at the forefront of the market.Country music is becoming more mainstream, and DJs may need to incorporate country remixes into their sets to cater to a wider audience.The sale of music rights, such as Michael Jackson's, highlights the changing landscape of the music industry and the value of catalogs.Taylor Swift is currently one of the biggest pop stars, with widespread popularity and a strong presence in the industry.Support the show
