After rocking a crowd using >2 deck mixing (sometimes having 3 decks playing to the master at once, and rarely with all 4), a girl came up to me after my show and said it was great because I spun the kinds of songs she likes.
I guess she didn't notice anything else I was doing
The point of the story is, the average club-goer is not a DJ. I don't care how good your mixing skills are, if the crowd can't relate to the songs you're playing you won't have much effect on them. I'm the same way when I'm in the crowd, if I get into enough, even I start to care less and less about the DJ's technical skills and more and more about the song selection.
