I'd say that my show falls somewhere in between. While I don't bother with beat matching and other club DJ stuff (partly 'cause most of what I play doesn't really work in that contaxt, and partly 'cause I suck at it!), I still try to put together sets that flow well and don't sound like a bunch if disconnected tracks just thrown together. I also make a point of mentioning the artist, release and label for every track I play. As someone else in this thread mentioned, I hate it when I'm listening to an electronic music show and hear a killer track in the mix, only to have the DJ not mention any of the stuff he or she played.
