It's not that uncommon among DJ's to not understand musical structure.
Almost every time I go out these days I hear a DJ mix together two tracks
that are off measure. House and techno tends to stay around 8 measure
progressions and it sounds funky when a DJ isn't aware of this and drops
in a track on the wrong measure. Just last weekend my partner and I
played at a party at a friends house where the DJ mixed two tracks which
were on the wrong beat in the measure! This guy was somebody who was
getting flown all over the country to spin and he can't even figure out
where in the measure he is!
Oh well. I'm not a classicly trained musician myself but that's rediculous!
