Hey! It’s OUR day…but we wouldn’t have one if it wasn’t for YOU listening to us! So thank you 🙂

(via National Calendar) “Each year National Disc Jockey Day recognizes the DJs playing the music and spinning the records. A disc jockey, or DJ for short, is a person who plays recorded music either on the radio or at a club or event. The first disc jockey was an experiment on the airwaves. In 1909, sixteen-year-old Ray Newby was a student under the supervision of Charles “Doc” Herrold at Herrold College of Engineering and Wireless. He played the first records over the airwaves before the word disc jockey even existed. It wasn’t until 25 years later that radio commentator Walter Winchell coined the term disc jockey. Today, contemporary DJs play music from vinyl to digital. Regardless of the medium they use, the term disc jockey still applies. Share and give your favorite DJ a shoutout using #NationalDiscJockeyDay on social media.”
