What Kind of DJ Are You? · Result
The Closer
You are built for the hour everyone else is scared of.
Designed rarity: about 11% of takers
You want the peak and you are not shy about it. You tend to have a physical instinct for the moment a room is ready, and very little patience for the twenty minutes before it. Where other DJs build, you decide: big, known, unbeatable records, placed with real precision at the exact point the floor will take them, whether in a Gangnam big room, at a hip hop night or on a festival stage at nine. It is a genuine skill, and harder than it looks.
You like to arrive when the room is already warm and the clock is heading toward the best hour. Your bag is full of records people know and love, sorted by how much lift they give, and you read the crowd for the second it is ready. Prime time slots, big systems and a closing record that sends people home happy are where you shine.
Your strength
You can lift a room from flat to full in about eight minutes.
Your blind spot
Warm up slots can bore you, and that tends to show within a few records.
