I always thought whoring off your own stuff was a bad thing, self promotion and all that. Then again this topic came up a while back and someone said it was a good thing that some DJs were 'musical' enough to be able to produce and play their own music. Had a more 'musician' quality to it...

Playing out your label is probably in the whoring rather than musician category.

The infamous Rojam ID. 14 years, 9 months and counting...

finding the rare and precious track is half of the job of the DJ.

but at the same time, i think some tracks people instantly love should be played too here and there.

but i say 30%-70% of the tracks should be unheard, from unheard producers etc.

The percentage depends on the DJ, his mood, and the crowd's mood. You neeed really a good mix of both depending on how the crowd and the Dj is feeling and also the occasion.

the reality is, for many people, a lot of tracks need to be heard a few times before they are loved.
