How did DJs come into existence?

The term disc jockey wasn’t coined by anyone until the 1930’S. But in the year 1935, an American radio commander Walter Winchell coined the term ‘Disc Jockey’’. The world’s first DJ party was thrown by radio DJ Jimmy Savile who played jazz records in the upstairs function room of the Loyal Order of Ancient Shepherds in Otley, England for a large number of guests in 1943.

What does a DJ do?

A job profile of disc jockey is turning, twisting and mixing music in a way that sounds pumping and the atmosphere gets lively so that the people start dancing on the beats and jump according to the music. Top DJ in Las Vegas use various complex equipment like mixers, graphic equalizers, turntables, and various other fancy music processors to give an amazing sound.
