DJWORX official disclaimer
What is the easiest type of DJing? – We see this question asked a lot.
It’s very much like saying who is the best DJ.
Clearly the list below is subjective. Obviously and not even comparing like for like. Although there is a kernel of truth in it!
It depends on how long you’ve been DJing and a million other factors. Which is why you shouldn’t take this list too seriously.
We aren’t saying any of these types of DJing are easy to do (at least not well), but that some are easier than others
