Judge Jules Rules on DJing in 2016
Judge Jules has been around for a little while. In fact, he’s actually going on his 16th year at Eden, Ibiza. So, I guess when he passes judgement on the state of DJing, he knows something about it.
Jules talks about the changes in equipment – “The emergence of Pioneer’s CDJ-500 back in 1995 was a glimpse of what to expect in the future.”
He comments on the crowds that DJs play to have changed – “There’s no denying that dance music has gone mainstream.”
Jules even talks about production – “Production levels for DJ [stage] sets have changed in every way imaginable, to the point that DJs are now playing on sets that would have been reserved for rock stars in the past.”
About promotion, he suggests – “I think it’s safe to say that this has changed completely.”
And about cost, too – “This industry is now people’s livelihoods.”
