Question....what exactly is implied when is said one Dj Versus another Dj????like Ferry Corsten vs. DJ Lemon....

please explain, i dunno...

>JM<

Do you mean when it's a remix?? It just means they've worked together on it I think

or maybe when to dj's get behind their decks, and take turns spinning and the people decide whos better? or 2 different dj's remix a cd... and people see who is better? im not sure myself.

It is when two dj's "battle" it out on 4 decks (usually), trying to out do themselves with each mix.

Steve

For a remix its when to DJ's work together...they each might add or change certain elements then combine them to make 1 remix.

In the case of Corsten vs. Lemon, I believe there where only 2 turntables, Corsten on one and Lemon on the other, they would take turns mixing 1 song each...so say Corsten would bring in all the even songs (track..2,4,6..) and Lemon would bring in the others. Just taking turns

At least my theory.

yeah as d-syde said, that's how it is..
i dont know how they do 4 decks for trance, that must be real crazy
cox-ish stuff

the last rave i went to, there were about 4 "vs" sets...
what happens is one dj plays, then the other, or sometimes they'll do like a tag team type set where one will mix for a while, then the other, and they keep switching...
they just keep battling fro the crowds appreciation, it can get quite crazy sometimes...

The vs. sets can be one of two things:

1) The djs mix with each other i.e. generally sharing the same set of decks. If the 2 djs have totally different styles, it can make for a very interesting set.

or

2) They are up against each other, the first dj plays a full set, then the second plays their set & often the crowd is asked to judge it. An example of this would be the Armin van Helden vs. Fatboy slim ``event'' from 2 (orso) years back.

So I've kinda repeated exactly what everyone else has said ....
