A disc jockey (DJ) is a person who plays recorded music for an audience. They often work at events like parties, weddings, and clubs, using equipment such as turntables and mixers to create a seamless flow of music. DJs can also remix songs and add effects to enhance the listening experience. In addition to playing music, DJs often interact with the crowd, helping to create an energetic atmosphere. Some DJs specialize in specific genres, such as hip-hop, electronic dance music, or rock, while others may play a mix of styles to cater to different audiences.
