DJ set
Club music performance
A DJ set is a continuous performance by a disc jockey, mixing and transitioning between tracks to create a seamless flow of music.
Unlike a live concert where musicians play original compositions, a DJ set involves selecting, blending, and manipulating pre-recorded music: Her DJ set at the festival lasted two hours.
The term distinguishes this from a live set, where electronic artists perform their own productions with more improvisation.
