Club DJ — DJ

Provide the venue's musical direction and the role of the set, such as opening, headline or closing, instead of asking only for a DJ for a number of hours. Specify the booth equipment, technical support and whether promotion, recording or live streaming is expected.

Service scope

Club DJ work is a performance within a venue's music programme, with an agreed genre direction, set position and booth specification. The venue may provide the main system, but compatibility, handovers and any recorded or streamed use of the set still need explicit agreement.

What is normally included

  • Genre-led set preparation
  • Performance using an agreed booth arrangement
  • Handover with adjacent performers
  • Coordination with the venue programme contact

What is not included

  • Club security or crowd management
  • Automatic supply of the venue sound system
  • Unrestricted distribution of a recorded set

Typical tasks

  • Review the club's musical brief
  • Confirm the booth equipment specification
  • Prepare a set suited to its programme position
  • Coordinate changeovers with other acts
  • Agree the handling of recordings and promotion

What to include in your brief

  • Venue and event date
  • Set position and playing duration
  • Music direction and audience
  • Booth and mixer specification
  • Recording or promotional expectations

Choosing the right professional

Assess a relevant performance mix and discuss how the artist approaches the requested slot. Confirm the technical rider and substitution terms rather than assuming every DJ uses the same equipment or will supply an identical set style.

Important considerations

  • Booth incompatibility can prevent the planned performance
  • Overrunning sets can disrupt other artists
  • Permission for live performance does not automatically cover an online recording
