Produce a Better DJ Show

Don't just DJ- Produce a Great Show
There are hundreds of Disc Jockeys out there and they all want the same thing you do. To be working for top money as many days of the week as they can. You can't expect to be better then the last guy the club hired, unless you put some time and energy into your DJ Show. The days of just showing up and playing music are gone. Today's DJ needs a lot of tools at his disposal. Just as lights, fog and other special effects are important, everybody else is using them too. So how do you stand out in the crowd. Using DJ Drops can help.
Using DJ Drops
When I listen to the average radio station one thing comes to mind. The uniqueness of the radio personalities. Many times you have two or more DJ's or guests interacting with each other using wisecracks and fake voices to create a three or four hour show that you'll remember and want to listen to more often. A DJ on stage can be limited by having only one voice to work with. If that voice is not strong and commanding then nobody will remember it. Sure your music needs to be on target but your playing the same songs as everybody else. So your choice you have is to emphasize your voice and using DJ Drops (different voices) can be a great help.
DJ Drops by any other name
There are a lot of different terms for DJ Drops. Voice overs, sound bites, segues, sweepers, bumpers and custom DJ Drops to name a few. They contain phrases, slang and DJ lingo. If they have a backing pad with sounds, noises or music then they are called Sweepers or Jingles. Inserted between songs or used to make announcements, they can promote, energize and create a show that is above the norm. Using DJ Voices that stand out above the music can make you seem in command of your audience. Having a Custom DJ Drop make with your DJ name and details will make your show seem more professional to the crowd on hand.
Were you looking for free DJ Drops?
Do you know why the drops are free-the quality is pathetic, which no professional DJ will ever use willingly. Google "DJ Drops" and you'll find a vast array of quality drop producers that can do custom work as well as offering generic DJ Drops that can fit the need in a multitude of categories from making announcements to quick DJ Sayings you can place between songs.
Music, equipment and knowledge are important. The DJ's that make the grade and out perform the competition are the ones that find other great tools to use. The DJ Drop is one such tool.
