track selection is the most important part of djing, and the are where most djs fail miserably.
in fact, if you want to compare a djskill to 'standing upright', beatmatching fits far better. |
It may well be very important, but that doesn't make it a DJing skill. Running is not a football skill, or a rugby skill or a baseball skill. You can sequence tracks well without DJing, but you don't beatmatch in any other context. |

beatmatching is synchronizing music with the aid of technology, correct?
isn't that something that most (none-soloist) musicians do when practicing and preforming?
if so, using your logic, synchronizing music is not a DJing skill.
as i imagine collage artists are not judged by how well they apply the glue but rather by how well they select the pieces to glue together... |

No. It's adjusting the tempo of records (or any pre-recorded track in any format) so they're playing at the same speed in time with each other.
DJ skills are what seperate a DJ from someone just playing records one after the other. They are what make it a trade, an art and a profession rather than simply an act. |
