Schon seit einiger Zeit gibt es ein Tumblr namens Posing DJs. Dort zu sehen sind DJs, die mehr oder weniger gut posen können. Und das führt uns auch zu dem, was das Mixmag vor einigen Tagen fabriziert hat, die DJ Poses. Das Mag erklärt hier anhand lustiger Illustrationen von Elliot Thoburn, was verschiedene Plattendreher hinter den Decks so machen und warum das so ist. Dabei wird unterschieden zwischen: The Txter, The Cry-baby, The Finger Piano-player, The Orgasmatron, The Libidom, The Bobber, The Lean-back, The Down-low, The Cowboy, The Jesus, The Artist und The Pointer. Aber seht einfach selbst und lacht:
The Pointer
The standard pose adopted by many a mainstream millionaire – and those who aspire to be them. Far more acceptable in Ibizan superclubs than a half-empty Sheila’s Wine Bar in Swindon.
Examples: Guetta,Tiësto, Ferry Corsten
The Lean-back
Often occurs as the prelude to a full-on head-mosh when the tune drops. Habitual proponents risk displaying the contents of their nostrils to the crowd – not to mention whiplash.
Examples: Skrillex, Rusko
The Orgasmatron
A state of intense concentration and pleasure reached by DJs who become locked into their selection on a very deep level, resulting in the inadvertent exhibition of their sex face.
Example: Seth Troxle
