Well I sit there in me Supras, drink a red stripe, and just hit songs on Spotify, sometimes I even toggle shuffle, and I have a controller with some EQ knobs but they aren't connected to anything and I just occasionally tweak them so it looks like I'm actually doing something.
This works with iTunes as well |

Ahh, you seem surprised, it's what DJs do, they are mainly hired to just look cool.
To DJ successfully you have to invest, bro. You gotta get the hottest gear and you gotta buy some nice kicks, save up for some retros and you'll be smashing the place up (but if you got some 4th quarter kicks, you'll get kicked out) |

| Getting a 100$ "turntable" wouldn't be much trouble |

| Haha, nope, it wouldn't. And if you're really self-conscious, just hide the laptop behind something and have your decks displayed out. |

| The only problem with spotify is the crossfader. It really should have a manual option. |

| Who cares? Most people at parties are just too messed up or just completely indifferent and ignorant to how mixing works. Just look cool and be energetic, and make mixing second |
