That's how I see it....pretty simple to me.
DJ's are entertainers mixing up what others have written for a specific venue/crowd.
A turntable does not qualify as a musical instrument from my perspective.
I see it as a music medium....a method to convey what musicians have actually recorded.

EDIT: Based on some opinions that means radio DJ's are musicians too?....I don't think so.

Could it be said they're in a sort of derivative genre?
I don't know....it's early and I need more coffee.

Lots of various opinions without a doubt.

Feliz Viernes to all....
