Building the Middle Class of the Creator Economy

Just wondering, I never understood it.

Especially for EDM, the songs seem to be premixed. The DJs seem to be standing around, pretending to turn some knobs but the sound doesn't seem to be impacted too much.

I understand artists playing a guitar live on Twitch, but for electronic music?

I’d be surprised if many sets are premixed, but many are preplanned (as in, the DJ knows which songs he/she will play, in what order, and how many bars out/in to start the fade).

Of course, that’s still pretty boring to watch, which is why there’s a lot of fake knob twists and styling going on.

I consume a lot of Youtube DJ sets but it’s all just playing in the background, I never watch the video.
