I mean seriously, how many times have I seen someone behind the decks tweaking the shit out of something that doesn't even seem to be making the least bit of a difference to the overall sound. They make what they're doing seem so much harder and complex then it really is. I'm not saying this applies to everyone but they look like they're working at the NASA command center.

Yeah I can't tell what they're actually doing because it's right in the middle of a big breakdown. It's probably just the song, it just sounds and looks cool when you hear the chaos of the buildup and they're twisting shit, and then the beat hits when they press another button......but as it turns out, it looks like that has nothing to do with it either because they're just starting the other queued up track

Most of the time I'm pumping the gain and the filter in time with the beat or I'm switching both channels simultaneously from highpass to lowpass in time for a cut & paste type of mix. Etc...

I think he's just trying to do a little workout to lose some weight while he DJ's. Hence all the 'pelvic thrusts' and tai-bo style movements.
