(Solved!)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
DJs wear headphones for a variety of reasons. The main one is to ensure that the incoming track is in time with the current song before entering it into the mix. Otherwise, the tunes would be out of time and sound awful. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Those who would argue that the humble headphone is not an integral piece of DJ equipment, without which, DJs would be unable to mix. Or they are just fashionable accessory that adds little value and are simply meant to add a certain mysticism to the DJ. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I haven’t had the pleasure, or displeasure, of listening to a DJ trying to mix without a pair and, in fact, nor would I want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But if you are planning on blending that incoming track anytime soon, a pair of headphones is something you can’t do without.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carry on reading to find out why!<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are situations where headphones could be entirely removed, take, for example, Donna Leake, the London-based vinyl virtuoso whose hodge-podge selection of whacky and wonderful sounds doesn’t lend itself to much actual mixing. But I digress; 99.9 percent of DJs use DJ headphones, and this is why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A blend is a term referring to the transition between two different songs. At its best, it can enhance the two tracks, creating something beautiful where the incoming song and the current track work in perfect harmony to make something entirely new. At its worst…it can sound like a train-wreck!<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy Do DJs Wear Headphones?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
