The CEO of Late Night Record Pool has spent years at the intersection of DJs and the music industry. During a Twitch live stream, he weighed in on replay value. What started as a quick take quickly turned into an interview:
“Twitch has allowed DJs to truly showcase their musical acumen. When playing an in-person set, a DJ’s set is often dictated by the crowd. On Twitch, they can be free from those constraints, allowing them to re-introduce or introduce new music to their audiences. A DJ set’s replay value is not tied to a DJ’s technical ability, but to the curation they possess.
The key to engaging an audience is understanding when to play a song, the context behind that choice, and the follow-up. When a DJ interjects their personal tastes and is met with an open-minded audience, the creative possibilities are endless.”
