Just need a general opinion of the most common practice of ‘appreciation’ for Artists & DJ’s after their live-act\set. What I mean to say here is that after an Artist or DJ finishes their set, should there be a few seconds of pause and the audience claps\hoots\cheers or whatever to show appreciation for them? Or should the following set start right away?
Does this short pause cause annoyance and interruption to the audience coz for that brief moment there’s no music! I personally think it’s an imperative to show respect and gratitude to them for putting out so much for the spectators—and I’ve seen it happen at most parties but I just need a general opinion on this affair for an upcoming event…
I’d like to hear both perspectives; Artists\DJ’s and the Audiences.
Thanks and Good day

This was already discussed in another thread.
Some DJs like to stop and hear some screams, but others just let the other guy start right away, which I think to be much better, because of the uninterrupted flow. Unless the DJs play very different styles.
Respect!

What happens when the dj doesnt give a good performance to the crowd? Bash him with tomatoes?
You have to think about the bad as you think on the good

I look at them and nod in appreciation it's enough cause that nod is coming from my hearth...no need for claps and shows plus it's more comforatble for the person who played.

The Right way 
But claps are good to, not something noisy. -=The Meaning Of Life Is To Give Life A Meaning= |

Yea agree with full_on, the flow of music should be there.

If the DJ/artist plays out the outro of the last track, and the next DJ/artist plays the intro to his first track, that that is enough time for the audience to show appreciation.
So there doesn't need to be a contrived pause there, it should be in the ambient outro/intro, and that should be long enough for applause, tomatos, etc. Any longer than that and it becomes a concert and not a trance party.
However if, of course, the next DJ/artist is mixing in to the previous dj/artists last track, then the people would need to figure out that cue point themsleves...

well at a huge festival like Boom festival as it was in a Live act and after dj set and so on, and there was a couple of seconds between acts people applauded anyway and it was enough time, sure it's more easy to hear an applause then see a nod at night or day from all those people anyway ... mostly it happens in big festivals but in small parties i experienced it too .... and thank god there were chillums after not tomatoes hehehe ...
to rich: when the beat stops people automatically understand that the time is up anyway so i agree no need for a long wait ..

i would prefer to have the music go on continously......
it is nice to see that people are enjoying your music.....and i believe the artist can see that if that is the way people feel.......

i always bring a huge light system, i tbeam it in the dj's eyes when hes done and he sees a bomb of random lights in the blinding act of appreciation. |

3-4 seconds pause is enuff for the cheers & claps......
And yea a respectful eye contact & a hearthy appreciational gesture is the best IMO
