Does a DJ just play Music?

No. A DJ 's challenge is to recognize the different moods and special moments that occur during your event and play music to enhance those moments. A DJ should make the event entertaining and memorable. A DJ must be director, psychologist, motivator, host, coordinator, and entertainer all at the same time.
