Do you want to be a radio presenter or a DJ?

Nowdays they are the exact same thing.

Exactly what I was thinking. Yeah people may class them the same but do you don't get DJ Chris Moyles and DJ Scot Mills and so on.

When it comes to professional radio people who are presenters just usually use their names as they aren't actually proper DJ's and simply play tracks without really messing them.

Then you get people that go by DJ .... and actually mix and produce their own music, beats etc.

When I did run my former radio station which is returning this September with a new name/image etc. I always made sure presenters understood that they could only be DJ something if they where actually a true DJ. Because when you look at habbo radio's that have people like DJ ultimate DJ this and DJ that if anything it sounds a bit unprofessional and you can tell they are young.

Na you're wrong


Define DJ: Disc jockey
Define Disc Jockey: A person who introduces and plays recorded popular music, esp. on radio or at a disco.

Chris Moles is a dj maybe they don't state it on the site but technically he is. Being a DJ doesn't always mean entertaining people through the use of DJ Decks.

Chris Moyles and Scott Mills do mix afaik, just not on their regular Radio 1 shows.

True but usually they wouldn't put the DJ tag on their name unless they mixed. You usually only hear people say DJ ... if they mix their own stuff. When they don't mix their own stuff, they are still often classed as DJ's but often don't put the DJ tag on their name instead just using their full name.

Although in theory DJ does simply mean someone who plays music, I don't tend to class a "DJ" and a "radio presenter" as the same thing. DJ's (in my mind) are people who have knowledge of the beat (BPM, key, etc) structure of a track and can confidently mix and merge two (or more) tracks together, trying as hard as possible to make the mix as clean as possible. On the other hand a radio presenter, well, they do a radio show, they talk, and they play music (but don't mix between the two tracks). By mixing I don't mean fading in and out, haha!

I also agree that a person can be both.. For example (using myself) - I am both a DJ and a radio presenter. I have a show on a very popular online radio which involves me being both a DJ and also a radio show host (as I have to mix but also talk and do interviews, etc). Also, I regularly play in club environments.

Also yes, a majority of the Radio One presenters can call themselves DJ's as they can actually mix, however, they rarely do it on air and only at festivals, etc.

So yeah, I was just speaking from my aspect. Do you want to play music (with no knowledge of mixing) and chat, etc or do you want to learn to properly mix and do both (which requires far more effort & costs a bomb for all the right equipment).

P.S; Just to be a mug, this is what becoming a DJ might require; http://i.imgur.com/AUTAH.jpg

I always have seen myself as a Internet radio presenter as i can't do mix's. I know how to but it's nowhere near good i'd love to master it though. I use the DJ Ice because me saying 'Lamar on HxL' on air doesn't sound good at all!

I listen to Kiss 100 irl & they do have differences in titles eg: Ricky Melvin & Charlie do radio presenting on Kiss but they do mixes outside of kiss. But they have DJ Swerve who does mixes on Kiss & outside of Kiss...

It's complicated in a way because any1 that has something to do with the radio entertainment industry is a DJ well the broadcasting side of things anyway.

If you're talkin' about a Habbo 'DJ' then you'd need:

Sam Broadcaster (2,3 or 4)
Music on your p.c/laptop
A Mic
Headphones
A Clear voice or as you'd say a 'Sexy Voice' :L


That's about it off the top of my head, if you apply for HxL good luck :D

Get Fruity Loops to make your own beats. Pick up your own decks etc. Check a vinyl store and pick some up. Google the rest.
