You're Not a Real DJ

When listening to and watching an electronic dance music (EDM) DJ set by DjMixfe, I observed her using what appears to be a Pioneer DJ DJM-700 DJ Mixer, another piece of sampling equipment which is unfamiliar to me, a plug-in host port, and a laptop. Yet, I saw no DJ decks.

Immediately, I was reminded of a phrase I heard throughout my relatively short-lived time as a hobbyist DJ. For context, a “DJ” is a disc jockey. Regarding this term, one source thusly expounds:

A disc jockey, more commonly abbreviated as DJ, is a person who plays recorded music for an audience. Types of DJs include radio DJs (who host programs on music radio stations), club DJs (who work at nightclubs or music festivals), mobile DJs (who are hired to work at public and private events such as weddings, parties, or festivals), and turntablists (who use record players, usually turntables, to manipulate sounds on phonograph records).

Originally, the “disc” in “disc jockey” referred to shellac and later vinyl records [colloquially known as “wax”], but nowadays DJ is used as an all-encompassing term to also describe persons who mix music from other recording media such as cassettes, CDs or digital audio files on a CDJ, controller, or even a laptop. DJs may adopt the title “DJ” in front of their real names, adopted pseudonyms, or stage names.

I began DJing in my youth, using cassette tapes (“tapes”) to sample, mix, and create mixtapes for friends. In Packing Bags, I stated, “I recall waiting patiently by a dual cassette stereo when listening to Bomb City DJ Deana E. so that I could record [tracks] from the radio in real-time.”

Once I captured radio-delivered music from the airwaves, I patched together various songs with samples from other tracks. After doing this for some time, I met a friend of a friend who went by “DJ Fabian.” He graciously allowed me to use his equipment for free.

DJ Fabian had dual CD players with a mixer, many compact discs (“CDs”), and a music sampler that he used when spinning (i.e., playing music) at various house parties. Using his equipment, the quality of my high school mixtapes was improved quite a bit!

Not long after enlisting in the Marine Corps (1996), I kept DJing. At first, I continued using tapes and CDs for mixing. Yet, without proper DJ equipment, I was told “you’re not a real DJ.” I then purchased DJ hardware. Regarding this matter, I stated in Dancing Through the Bullshit:

I had two Pioneer CDJ-100S decks, a Pioneer DJM-300 mixer, a Tascam CD-RW700 CD burner, a Korg Kaoss Pad, an American Audio V3000 power amp, a couple Wright Bros 15” two-way loudspeakers, and various other DJ equipment.

My friends with whom I was stationed in Okinawa, Japan seemingly enjoyed my mixes. Therefore, with new equipment that I purchased when assigned to a diplomatic security post in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, I figured that others would also appreciate my efforts.

However, during a house party at which I DJed, one staff member of the consulate said “you’re not a real DJ,” apparently because I didn’t have the music she wanted to hear. My CDs were a finite source, and I didn’t have any Kool & the Gang or KC and the Sunshine Band.

It was also when DJing in Rio that a Marine captain’s girlfriend told me “you’re not a real DJ,” ostensibly because I didn’t know of EDM acts with which she was familiar. It wasn’t that I didn’t have the associated CDs. My ignorance alone was enough to regard me as less-than a DJ.

By the time I transitioned to Lima, Peru, a fellow Marine told me “you’re not a real DJ,” supposedly because I didn’t know who Felix da Housecat. He also said, “They never played this shit at any rave I went to,” when hearing me spin EDM group Smart E’s song “Sesame’s Treet”.

Favorably, the Marines in the barracks in San Diego, California were far less pretentious as the aforementioned people I met in South America. It was at that time, toward the end of my DJing hobby, that I released eight unique EDM mixtapes in CD form.

Two decades afterward, one former Marine contacted me and expressed gratitude, because he still had one of my CDs which he occasionally played. All these years later, I found myself listening to and watching an EDM DJ set by DjMixfe who mixed without any DJ decks.

Something an ATLiens Chat member named MzGZ (“GZ”) told me years ago when discovering that I didn’t spin wax entered my mind. “You’re not a real DJ,” she said, “You’re just a knob-turner! A real DJ spins wax. CDs don’t count!” Now, I invite you to further examine this matter.

When providing psychoeducational lessons on Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), I teach people about the ABC model of self-disturbance (how people upset themselves through use of irrational beliefs). Now, I’ll address a finer point of this psychotherapeutic model of wellness.

For context, REBT uses the ABC model to illustrate how when an undesirable Action occurs and you Believe an unhelpful narrative about the event, it’s your unfavorable assumption, not the occurrence itself, that causes an unpleasant Consequence. That negative outcome is disturbance.

In particular, there are four predominate irrational beliefs which people often use to disturb themselves: global evaluations, low frustration tolerance, awfulizing, and demandingness. When contemplating these unproductive Beliefs, think of the acronym GLAD.

It’s worth noting that the two forms of should, must, and ought-type demands with which people most often self-disturb are associated with use of absolutistic and conditional should beliefs. Generally speaking, these serve as rigid commands used toward oneself, others, and life.

An absolute must narrative is, “You absolutely must do as I say!” A conditional should narrative is, “Either you should do as I say, or you should be punished!” Significantly, in REBT literature, demandingness of this sort is said to function as a primary appraisal mechanism of disturbance.

Global evaluations (i.e., self-downing, other-downing, and life-downing), low frustration tolerance (also known as frustration intolerance), and awfulizing (e.g., terrible, horrible, etc.) function as secondary appraisal mechanisms. Together, GLAD will make you sad or mad, etc.

Noteworthy, with my approach to care for mental, emotional, and behavioral health (collectively “mental health”), I invite people to consider mental scripts which are rational (in accordance with both logic and reason) – especially regarding events which correlate with strong feelings.

Logic is the interrelation or sequence of facts when seen as inevitable or predictable, and reason is a statement offered in explanation or justification. As such, I often use syllogisms (deductive schemes of formal argument consisting of a major and a minor premise and a conclusion).

Importantly, a syllogistic statement, proposition, or belief may be logical while simultaneously unreasonable. In this case, even though the logic consequentially follows (the conclusion is a necessary and inevitable result of previous facts or premises), it’s considered irrational.

While still functioning as prescriptive rather than descriptive, flexible use of recommendatory, preferential, ideal, empirical, moral and ethical, and legal ought beliefs won’t inevitably cause disturbance, as they may align with distress. Thus, rigidity versus flexibility makes a difference.

As well, a rigid form of irrational belief results in self-disturbance (e.g., rage) while a flexible form of rational belief results in self-distress (e.g., righteous indignation). Ergo, what one thinks, feels (i.e., emotions and sensations), and behaves reveals what type of beliefs are being used.

Addressing how people upset themselves with unhelpful attitudes, the ABC model incorporates Disputation of unproductive philosophies of life in order to explore Effective new beliefs. Whereas rigid beliefs cause self-disturbance, flexible beliefs result in an un-disturbed condition.

Remarkably, natural forms of distress are tolerable (e.g., mild anxiousness, sorrow, frustration, annoyance, disappointment, etc.). Even though unnatural forms of disturbance are also tolerable (e.g., enragement), my approach to REBT seeks the outcome which is more likely to be endured.

Now, I offer a finer point of understanding in regard to the ABC model. In particular, I invite you to consider use of a disjunctive syllogism—a conditional form (rational or irrational) that uses a disjunction with two alternatives (disjuncts), eliminating one, and forcing the conclusion.

Form –

Either p, or q; not p; therefore, q.

Example –

Major premise: Either you’ll practice REBT, or you’ll continue self-distressing or self-disturbing.

Minor premise: You won’t practice REBT.

Conclusion: Therefore, you’ll continue self-distressing or self-disturbing.

Provided that you comprehend the ABC model and how a disjunctive syllogism works, I’ll offer another example for your consideration. Using the words of my longtime friend GZ, I invite you to contemplate the rigidity of her belief about what did and didn’t constitute a “real DJ.”

Form –

Either p, or q; not p; therefore, q.

Example –

Either you’re someone who spins wax as a DJ (p), or you’re somebody who merely turns knobs and is consequently not a real DJ (q). You’re someone who doesn’t spin wax as a DJ (p). Therefore, you’re somebody who merely turns knobs and is consequently not a real DJ (q).

When people use inflexible conditions of this sort, they engage in a formal fallacy. Specifically, one source states of the no true Scotsman fallacy—(also known as: appeal to purity [form of], no true Christian, no true crossover fallacy [form of]):

Description: When a universal (“all”, “every”, etc.) claim is refuted, rather than conceding the point or meaningfully revising the claim, the claim is altered by going from universal to specific, and failing to give any objective criteria for the specificity.

Logical Form:

All X are Y.

(the claim that all X are Y is clearly refuted)

Then all true X are Y.

Example #2:

John: Members of the UbaTuba White Men’s Club are upstanding citizens of the community.

Marvin: Then why are there so many of these members in jail?

John: They were never true UbaTuba White Men’s Club members.

Marvin: What’s a true UbaTuba White Men’s Club member?

John: Those who don’t go to jail.

Explanation: This is a very common form of this fallacy that has many variations.  Every time one group member denounces another group member for doing or saying something that they don’t approve of, usually by the phrase, “he is not really a true [insert membership here]”, this fallacy is committed.

GZ told me I wasn’t a real DJ. I informed her that with changing times and advancement in technology knob-turners were considered DJs. She then retorted that by definition a CDJ deck wasn’t the same as a vinyl deck, which is where the term “disc” in “disc jockey” originated.

I then retorted that “CD” was a term for “disc;” whereas, shellac and vinyl records were only nominally considered discs. Well, she reasoned, no real (i.e., true) DJ would spin anything other than spherical objects—which emerging knob-turners such as DjMixfe didn’t do.

Years after having had that senseless discussion, it’s become rare for any leading DJ to spin wax. If “you’re not a real DJ,” because you don’t use a particular medium, don’t retain music by specific artists, or haven’t heard of certain acts, then it may be worth considering this blogpost.

Although the terms we use matter, it isn’t helpful to maintain personally rigid terms of service when shortsighted fundamentalism and dogmatic attitudes keep us from remembering the main point of a DJ—to play recorded music for an audience, or to pass on music by other means.

DjMixfe is a real DJ, as she interacts with the music—not only plays it, even if she’s merely turning knobs. Now, I invite you to consider a similarly flexible outlook regarding whatever it is you do. As well, if you’d like to know more about REBT, then I’m here to try to help you.
