Trance is supposed to be a genre of music that gains feedback from the live audience. It was kind a created like "American Idol" where the audience participation is important to choose a talent. Reputation of trance Deejays and bands are important because most of them don't have a major record deals or managers. Most trance musicians get their income from performing live or hosting radio show. I adore this kind of attitude because some of singers of my generation are only for the money and fame; at least my favorite trance musicians try to serve the audience by making sure the participation is strong in the dance floor. I have a DJ friend, Chris Allen, who regular host his own radio and goes out dick jockeying. He makes about $4,000 a night when he is performing. In his radio show people sends him request and some invites in parties. Part of the reason trance is interesting because of the unique audience who wants to take part in the music itself. Trance music generally goes on for hours and even days (several deejays take part in events) non stop.

Again, I believe that you mean "disc" jockey.
KOE, I'd love to see you flesh out your ideas in a post rather than continually shift from top;ic to topic. You have some wonderful things to talk about here, but instead of delving too deeply (like, for example, giving an example from experience where your witnessed the "feedback" aspect of trance), you move on to a new topic. Stay focused and give a lot of detail.
