DJ Music

The initials 'DJ' stand for 'disc jockey'. Originally DJs only played recorded music to audiences eg through radio stations, at music events. Now, DJs use a combination of pre-recorded music and original electronic music to create long compositions  that use a timeline structure. 

In DJ compositions, pre-recorded music is presented in several ways:
- samples
- loops
- covers
- remixes

A lot of the music we listen to today uses these techniques. Take the polls below to see how familiar you are with these DJ methods and compare the answers with others in your class:
