Hey Mr. DJ...
01. The ArmChair DJ
This scary monster is the most prevalent. They are the one's that have asked for the same
requests for the past 2 years. If a DJ were to play something new from one of the lesser
known artists they get huffy and either leave the room or stand against the wall scowling at
the DJ. They proceed to download all of the hits from newsgroups and "mash-up" all of the
songs to the same BPM. Then, pass it off as a masterpiece of musical selection and beat
matching.
02. The DJ Stumper, DJ
This type always invades the booth and closes in on the DJ's personal space. They are always
asking for some wacked out shit from Somalia or the Ukraine and look at the DJ like he has
stabbed their mom when he tells them he doesn't have it in his collection. Their mix usually
sounds like pots and pans being scraped across the road by a hovercraft which is then
recorded by a mini tape recorder.
03. The I Used to DJ at... DJ
This annoying bastard used to DJ back in the day and still thinks that they know what would
make a dance floor packed. Hence, the Front 242 - Headhunter request. Their mix is made with
dated classics that include 80 minutes of non-stop goth/industrial classics that are all
stop/start/stop/start/stop/start...
04. The I'm a DJ at ___, Impress Me
This fuckface comes from some small town and thinks that every city should be exactly like
there night is. They expect the DJ to be doing things exactly like them in terms of tempo
and song selection and are sure to tell the DJ about there club repeatedly through the night.
The funny thing is, no mixes exist for this DJ and if there is one, it is a 13 track
straight burn of stuff you stopped playing 2 years ago.
05. The Nonchalant DJ
This guy is a DJ from another club in a different city and stops into the booth to say hi.
He makes a request and compliments the DJ. He thanks the DJ later for a good set (Even if it
was horrible!) and tells the DJ to stop into his night if they are ever in his town. He may
even leave a mix to listen to. It turns out that guy is a great fucking DJ and was cool as
shit! This species is rare.
And Germans may love this one:
