Colm O'Regan: Let's hear it for all the DJs bringing us together
Colm O'Regan: 'What I like is seeing people hang out online in a non-weird way and getting on great because one person’s favourite love song appears in another person’s favourite US House/UK Garage Live DJ Set From 2003.'
This column goes out to the DJs. Not the wedding DJs this time. Though they too deserve praise for their ability to fill a floor, get a rock-the-boat-going, listen to drunken requests, drunken propositions, people shouting ONE MORE TUNE, pack everything up at 2am and not lose a single lead while a fight breaks out between cousins.
No this is for the mixing DJs, the samplers, the painstaking creators of dance music out of bits of other dance music and unlikely or obscure bits of not-dance music.
