Beyond the Decks: Why the DJ Is Still the Experience
In an era of unlimited music, AI tools, and ever-evolving technology, what still makes a DJ irreplaceable?
This session reframes the DJ not as a music provider, but as an experience creator—someone who reads rooms, shapes emotion, and creates moments technology alone cannot.
Attendees will leave with a new lens on their value and a renewed confidence in their role on stage and in the future of the industry.
