: Some DJ's mix one song right into the end of another so the music is continuous. Others allow the first cut to completely end before they start the next and usually have a couple of seconds break between cuts. Personally, I really prefer the non-mix approach so I can dance the song to it's full conclusion, thank my partner and have an opportunity to stop dancing or invite a new partner for the next song.
: There's an interesting discussion on this at http://www.dancefreak.com/stories/DJ_mixing.htm.
: What's the consenus in Boston? (Olaf, this might make an interesting poll).
: I prefer to have the song actually end for the same reason. Also ,when DJs play those awful superfast merengue medleys that go on and on forever you ask for divine intervention to tell where one ends and the next one begins.
