I didnt do an essay/paper on it, but in my speech class I did a 10min explaination of how to become a DJ. I brought in my mixer, some records and some videos of famous DJs.......

......the bitch meter went up about 10pts with that one !

beatmatching, harmonic mixing (mixing in key), tracklist, etc..

you could write a lot about that

bad news i couldnt find my paper, i must have lost it when i reformatted (i think i still have the hardcopy laying around here somewhere) ... i did find another short paper on my computer that i wrote... from the same class but this time we had to do a case analysis comparision. i wrote a review for a club of three turntables and recommended which one is best. I can email you that one if it still fits.
