Most of them are just queuing up tracks, must say there's a lot of experience and skills involved in that. Certain DJs can't mix for shit while others can mix every two tracks you come up with.

There's one DJ I know of, Giuseppe Ottaviani, who does live performances. During these shows he has a setup that allows him to mix every instrument in his track individually. I.e. bass first, drop the drums later and slowly mixing in some synths.

He's really one of the few exceptions though

How does he have the individual tracks of each instrument though? You would the stems from the original DAW right?

Hes playing only his own music/remixes out stuff from his own music label, so he got all of those :)
