Seminar paper from the year 2000 in the subject Communications - Journalism, Journalism Professions, grade: very good, University of Vienna, course: Journalism, 7 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: My presentation deals with the term and the existence of a "DJ Culture" as a worldwide phenomenon. DJ Culture does not only exist at one place in the whole world - it is a cultural movement which can be mostly be found in urban and suburban surroundings in the so-called "western-orientated" world. If somebody is interested in this cultural development, he or she can spot it in the United States as well as in Europe. Apart from introducing this phenomenon to you, my task is also to present the existence of DJ magazines and general music magazines located in Austria, Germany and Great Britain. Because of the wide range of musical styles, I reduced my reflection to hip hop & breakbeat culture including the new phenomenon drum'n'bass. For those of you who have not heard the word DJ yet - it is an abbreviation of the word "disk jokey" and formerly was defined as somebody who presents discs.
