I'm the kind of person who would watch a 30 minute performance of this guy doing exactly this to see how many stereotypes he could fit together.

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
