The Actions that Make a Musical Instrument: Exploring Club-DJing as an Instrumental Practice

Authors

In this study we introduce an action-based concept of instrumentality derived from DJ techniques used in hip-hop and apply it to DJ performances in the club context. We conducted a video content analysisof recordings of 8 professional Techno/House DJs and investigated the occurrence of instrumental and non-instrumental action strategies during their performances. The results show that instrumental techniquesare relatively rare in the club context – only 2 DJs show a clearly instru-mental use of their equipment during stretches of their performance. We therefore conclude that the concept of instrumentality does not suit the particular demands and goals of a Club DJ and suggest further research to find better concepts.
